AutoBeta(AutoBeta.net)08/18 Report--

In the early morning of August 18, a fire broke out at a Tesla repair shop in Binjiang, Hangzhou. According to the fire department, a preliminary understanding of the material causing the fire is that the engine of Tesla's car and a nearby electric meter box caught fire, and the specific cause of the fire is under further investigation. Since the beginning of this year, Tesla has had a number of spontaneous combustion accidents one after another.

Black smoke billowed from the roll gate of the on-site repair shop, and upstairs was the staff dormitory. An employee told firefighters that the roll gate was the place where the factory usually repaired, painted and washed the car, and they were worried that the battery removed was on fire.

After entering through the unwinding gate, firefighters found that the smoke was filled with thick smoke and the visibility at the scene was very low. They found that open fire and black smoke were emitting from the hood of a car opened by Tesla, and the meter box next to it was also on fire. Firemen put out the fire immediately. It was not until 03:13 in the morning that the open fire went out completely.

It is understood that the repair of the incident is located in the Jiangnan Building Materials City on Binkang Road in Xiaoshan, the Tesla authorized sheet spray Center of Hangzhou Xincheng Fast Cat Automobile Service Co., Ltd.

The service point has been closed because of the fire. At noon, all the other doors were pulled, except the one that caught fire in the middle. The walls at the entrance are all black. looking inside, there are about 10 Tesla cars parked, and the ground is covered with water. Among them, a semi-suspended maintenance car, which is licensed by Taizhou, seems to be burning the most, according to people nearby.

Mr. Wang, a Tesla owner at the scene, said that he heard the news that the service point was on fire in the WeChat group early in the morning. If he looked carefully, it was the maintenance point of his car, so he rushed over immediately.

Mr. Wang said that his car was repaired by the service center for a week. He had already informed him that he could pick it up yesterday, because he was too busy to pick it up in time. As a result... Early this morning, he went into the garage to check, and his car was parked near the car that was involved in the accident. So far, it seems that he has been affected by the fire, "but many of the cars inside are covered with black dust."

Mr. Wang said: Tesla in Zhejiang sheet spray authorization points are very few, Hangzhou only Shixiang Road and Binkang Road 2, so some simple scratches, everyone will come to these two stores to repair. However, because the electric car is relatively special, so these two points are only responsible for the sheet spray of the vehicle, if there is a problem other than the sheet spray, we can only go to Tesla's special maintenance point for repair.

At present, the specific cause of the fire is still under further investigation.
