There is a real question of the effects of Salt Water due to Storm Surge during Tropical Storms, Hurricanes, or for that matter unusual high tides. on electric car battery systems. An event in Florida makes the point. A women driving a Tesla back her vehicle down a ramp to launch her husband's wave runner. After short period of time the Tesla's low hung battery ignited and fire enveloped the vehicle. The woman inside is supposed to have been trapped but was saved by an off-duty firefighter. Does anyone know more about this incident?
