How to prevent a car fire
1 ⚫Have your car serviced regularly by a professionally trained mechanic. If you spot leaks, your car is not running properly, get it checked. A well-maintained car is less likely to have a fire.
2⚪If you must transport gasoline, transport only a small amount in a certified gas can that is sealed. Keep a window open for ventilation.
3⚫Gas cans and propane cylinders should never be transported in the passenger compartment.
4⚪Never park a car where flammables, such as grass, are touching the catalytic converter.
5⚫Drive safely to avoid an accident. Know the danger signs
6⚪Cracked or loose wiring or electrical problems, including a fuse that blows more than once
7⚫Oil or fluid leaks
8⚪Oil cap not on securely
9⚫Rapid changes in fuel or fluid level, or engine temperature.
