      Nothing they do to stop the combustion engine fires from getting out of control, will be applicable to preventing fires in electric cars.

        Lol I think their incompetent QA/QC department would like to speak with you.

        Nissan vehicles are hot garbage. Go drive a Leaf sometime and see for yourself

          It’s odd because I always considered them right up there with Toyota and Honda but between their transmission and engine issues over the past decade they’re clearly not in the same league.

        Sure, but the fact that they’re selling fucking bombs isn’t exactly comforting, especially when ev fires are significantly more devastating and harder to extinguish than gas car fires.
