“It’s a GM vehicle…enough said! “… Being it is a GM vehicle, has nothing to do with this. A fire can happen to any hybrid.
“Fire extinguisher is not enough for any hybrid. “CORRECT ! When fires do occur, electric vehicles with lithium ion batteries burn hotter, faster and require far more water to reach final extinguishment, And the batteries can re-ignite hours or even days after the fire is initially controlled, leaving salvage yards, repair shops and others at risk.
Fire extinguisher is not enough for any hybrid.
That’s why I keep a fire extinguisher in all of my vehicles, just in case..
