The Volt Fire in North Carolina was determined to be caused by electrical wiring problems and DID NOT start in the Volt. The other fire stated when the Volt was being charged along with another electrical vehicle in a garage. I think in this case we will also find out that the electrical Circuits were overloaded and that caused the fire.

The whole plan of this is to try to draw a lot of attention to a non-problem and thereby hurt the Volt. All of these examples about the Volt have shown to be false or exaggerated thus far. There are many people who are wishing and hoping for the Volt to be a failure even though it was conceived of and put into development before Obama was ever elected. Most of the comments are out of ignorance.

The Volt ought to be a source of pride for Americans, but many are trying to tear it down. They have bad mouthed the vehicle without ever driving it or even having known someone who owns or has driven one. Many of the negative comments are coming from people who have not even seen a Volt. Just ask Volt owners how they feel about their vehicles. That's the true test.

Boy, I sure glad I drive a car that uses gasoline. I'm sure a fire never has started in one of those cars. (Yes, I know the Volt uses gas too).

"The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration said on Friday it was taking the step after efforts to recreate a May crash test saw fires result from two out of three crash tests performed this month."

Yeah. We should take really take pride that one out of the three DIDN'T catch fire.

I'm sure they rave about their tofu turkeys too... which would be fine with me, as long as they don't take my tax dollars to subsidize their purchases.

Costly electric vehicles are a solution without a problem.

People need vehicles that can be depended upon in an emergency, not depended upon to create an emergency of its own.

Power grids go down constantly. they are not to be considered as a source of transportation!
