Why did a silently parked car inadvertently "self-immolate" in a raging fire?
When it comes to spontaneous combustion of vehicles, most people think that it is caused by high temperatures, but it is more than that. Spontaneous combustion of automobiles generally has the following reasons: oil leakage, leakage of fluid, aging wires, short circuits, high temperatures, vehicle impacts, unauthorized modifications, excessive accumulation of engine sludge, etc.
There is also a relatively difficult to find situation is that the car has been blistered, after wading, it is very likely to lead to the oxidation of the circuit connector, the imbalance in power supply leads to local heat, causing spontaneous combustion, which is a problem that is difficult to notice in maintenance.

How to prevent spontaneous combustion of vehicles
Check diligently
Regularly do a good job of daily inspection of the car's circuits, oil circuits, and lines, and should clean the engine before entering the summer, clean the engine sludge, and be diligent in maintenance.

Clean up the contents of the car in time, do not place flammable and explosive materials in the car, such as perfume, hair spray, lighter, etc., keep the engine compartment clean, and try not to smoke in the car.

Implement self-help to reduce losses
The first step, the odor inside the car, to be vigilant, get out of the car to check. If during the driving process, smell the smell of rubber in the car or see smoke coming from the gap in the cover and near the dashboard, you should quickly pull over and turn off the ignition, disconnect the main power switch of the whole car, call the professional repair telephone 119, and wait for rescue.
In the second step, the driver should quickly leave the burning car compartment after turning off the power.
Third, if the rescuers cannot arrive in time, the driver should immediately take the fire extinguisher to check the fire. When checking the fire, do not rush to open the front cover of the car, but should first open the front cover of the small slit, wait for oxygen to enter for a while, and then slowly open all of it, with a fire extinguisher for fire fighting. Because once the lid is opened violently, oxygen will quickly enter, and the flame of the car will suddenly become larger, easily burning itself. Note that the quasi-fuel tank and the burning part should be cooled down during fire extinguishing.
Fourth, if you have insured the car spontaneous combustion insurance, you must protect the car spontaneous combustion site. When dialing 119, the other party is also required to send a fire investigator to the scene, because when making a claim at the insurance company, it must be based on the investigation documents issued by the fire investigator.
Preventing problems before "burning"
A car is expensive, if it hurts personal safety is a disaster, in order to protect your car, usually must pay more attention to careful maintenance, prevent problems before they happen.
