Why do I need to talk to Tesla? BEVs (Tesla or any other brand) have far far fewer car fires than anything with an ICE engine. Its proven by statistics. You started this conversation asking about car fires. Isn’t that the topic you wanted to cover?
You’re moving the goalposts on the conversation then. If I read the article properly, the “defects” comment in the suit was related to the crash, and not the fire, where the deceased driver and the surviving passenger both had Blood Alcohol Levels way above the legal limit. That wasn’t related to the fire.
Are you conceding on your original point and agreeing that BEVs are far far less likely to catch on fire than cars with an ICE engine and gas tank?
The reading is pretty clear to me that you’re implying that Tesla (and presumably EVs in general) catch fire more than non Tesla (or again, other EVs).
That is clearly proven wrong
You ignore your previous point and move the goalposts to your “defect” angle
When called on you moving the goalposts you claim the original reading of the original point is wrong
When called to clarify your original point, you refuse to explain it, and even claim to have no other way your claimed unknown point could be communicated
You claim victory with nothing to support it
Should you ever want to change careers, you have a strong talent for doublespeak and propaganda. Pick up some Russian or Mandarin language skills, update your Linkedin, and you’ll be well on your way to a new career!
Now with my own snark aside, I need to say this. You’re not an idiot. I know this. I’ve read many posts of yours where you accurately and passionately defend your position, even extending your the language of your arguments to make yourself understood by your audience. This current thread is out of character for you, and from what I’ve seen elsewhere, you’re better than this.
I’m going to chalk this one up to you having a bad day and end the conversation here. I hope your day gets better, friend.
As long as it’s pretty clear to you, that must be it.
And as I told someone else on another thread, there’s no such thing as a good day.
By the way, I don’t remember claiming victory. You’ll have to point out when I did that and what I claimed victory over since I can’t remember the last time I had a victory in my life and, while it likely won’t brighten my day since that’s not a thing that happens, you never know.
Talk to Tesla. They claim this has nothing to do with defects. It’s not about likelihood, it’s about their claim that it’s not their issue.

I never made such a point, so I have nothing to concede.

Care to explain what you meant by your opening post then?
I am not sure how to make what I said more clear. But I think you’ve proven my point.
How wonderfully evasive of you!
