Teslas, and other EVs, caught in salt flood water are shorting out and catching fire. Worse still, each EV fire ties up firefighters for many hours and requires thousands of gallons of water to keep them cool. When water is unavailable due to infrastructure failure they must let them burn and protect surrounding structures.
People who fled their homes in their long-range gas powered cars and left their EVs behind in their garages run the risk of the EV catching fire and burning the house down.
Furthermore, EVs that have been exposed to salt water start a corrosion process that may not result in a fire until months later, making them ticking time bombs.
This IS the perfect storm for EVs.
