The factory in Tesla California is on fire again! A fire broke out in the outdoor area where some hazardous materials were stored at Tesla's factory in Fremont, Calif., on Saturday night, and the local Fremont fire station put out the fire. Tesla confirmed that no employees were injured and that the fire would not affect car production.

The accident occurred in the outdoor area where the company stored some dangerous materials. Thurston, deputy captain of the Tesla fire brigade, said that the fire was put out by the local Fremont fire station and called in the dangerous goods handling team. Thurston said: "at present, this fire does not pose a threat to the public, and the dangerous goods handling team is closely monitoring the atmosphere and the fire situation."

Tesla's US super factory has caught fire many times. In September last year, Tesla's super factory in Nevada caught fire and production was suspended for a time. A fire also broke out at Tesla's Fremont factory in California on August 24, due to a sudden fire in recycled cardboard and transportation materials. In June 2018, a fire at Tesla's factory shut down Tesla's production line for several hours. On April 6 last year, a fire broke out in the painting workshop of Tesla's Flemon factory.

In January, GA4, a makeshift tent production line set up by Tesla, was fined $30, 000 by the California Occupational Safety and Safety Administration for violating six different worker safety regulations. The production line, which undertakes about 20% of the final assembly of Model 3, adopts a common standard in quality management and Tesla's existing "GA3" production line.

Since April last year, there have been five large and small fires at the Tesla factory in less than a year, which has had a certain impact on the reputation and production of the Tesla factory, which also reflects the problem of manufacturing and management loopholes.

Last year, Tesla delivered a total of 99475 Model S and Model XMagi models with a total delivery of nearly 140000 vehicles in three years, with a gross profit margin of more than 20%, while Tesla expects the Model three-week production capacity to stabilize at 7000 vehicles in 2019 and 10000 vehicles by the end of the year. Last year, Tesla tried his best to improve the production capacity of Model 3, and finally lived up to expectations, handing over the sales results of nearly 140000 vehicles in the whole year, but for Tesla, while rapidly increasing production capacity, the relevant safety issues must not be ignored. Tesla's California factory fire is already the fifth time in nearly a year, and Tesla has to pay attention to it.
