Many people have the impression that spontaneous combustion of automobiles mostly occurs in summer, but they do not know that dry weather and aging vehicles are the main reasons for the occurrence of spontaneous combustion accidents of automobiles.

On the night of the 29th, a sedan spontaneously combusted while driving, and the owner of the car noticed that his car was on fire after the passing driver honked his horn to remind him! After trying to extinguish the fire with a car fire extinguisher to no avail, I called the police on 119 for help. At 22:19 on January 29, the Ganjingzi District Fire and Rescue Brigade Malanzi Fire and Rescue Station received an alarm order: a vehicle fire occurred near the communication cable factory in Shahekou District, Dalian City, Liaoning Province, and the Malanzi Fire and Rescue Station immediately dispatched 3 vehicles and 15 people to the scene to deal with it, when they arrived, the fire was in a state of fierce burning, and the entire front of the car was covered by fire.

Some friends are about to ask, why is the weather so cold, and the vehicle still spontaneously combusts? After a period of use, the vehicle may have aging circuits, falling off the insulation layer, cracking of rubber, etc., which will cause short circuits or gasoline leakage, resulting in spontaneous combustion. At the same time, if the vehicle is modified privately, the circuit and oil circuit of the vehicle may change, and the modification that does not meet the specifications and standards will increase the safety risk of the vehicle and easily lead to spontaneous combustion of the vehicle. When you find that the front of the car is on fire, do not rashly open the engine cover completely, once you open the hood suddenly, oxygen will enter quickly, and the flame may suddenly become larger, and it is easy to burn yourself. The cover should be opened with a small crack and a fire extinguisher should be used to extinguish the fire from the gap, or wait for the oxygen to enter for a while, and then slowly open it all and use a fire extinguisher to extinguish it.
