Nissan Leaf Caught on Fire at Nissan HQ

I thought bury it in sand, but I suppose a fire blanket does that. Water is counter intuitive though.

It’s possible as this sounds like it was actually owned by Nissan that that particular vehicle may have never gone through actual qc or failed it. So any problems it had (well it’s not really a vehicle anymore) may not apply to non Nissan owned vehicles. The thing may have never technically left the factory.

I had my Leaf checked by Nissan on Thursday and it caught on fire while charging on Tuesday

Different instance.

My 2019 Nissan Leaf has been burned down while charging at the Chargepoint. I reported to both Nissan and Chargepoint (EV station) and they are NOT taking any responsibility. The Nissan dealer replaced the battery in 2023 as it was malfunctioning, but it seems like it did not resolve. This was a total loss and not acceptable for such a disgraceful decision. Any thought of what we can do to make them aware more of the danger and possibly get compensation?

Apparently there is more than one instance getting talked about. There is the one where the Nissan security vehicle caught fire, and at least one other posted by forum members. They're all different instances with potentially different causes.
