    Late last summer, Chevy Bolt owners received a notice from GM: They were not to park their cars within 50 feet of other vehicles. They shouldn’t charge their cars overnight. Fully charged vehicles, GM said, should not be kept in garages.

    The recall of the Bolt covered all of the roughly 141,000 units GM had ever built. The company identified the issue as dual defects that led battery materials to make contact with one another and the components to combust spontaneously.

    Whew. Can you imagine getting that letter? Makes me want to wait a few decades before buying electric.

    Let's hope there are no cases where the parked car
    burns the whole building down.

    Go solar power. This is the future. ICE is dead.

    Put every dime you have into batteries. Fuck Chevron and XOM. See how far that gets you.
