If you have a flooded EV, do NOT try to drive it. Do NOT try to get in the car. Hopefully, a licensed tow truck operator can get it to a safe space. You do not want this in your house, because if it combusts, you will lose your house that may have survived the storm.

Unfortunately, there’s a science experiment taking place in Florida with EVs and salty storm surge waters post-Ian. Saltwater can cause EVs to combust after exposure. It’s something government and the private sector needs to know for disaster planning. bit.ly/3COg8x9

Have damage from Ian? Do NOT sign ANYTHING. Contact your insurer, insurance agent or my office. If pressured to sign something, you have rights, but there’s a limited window on when you can get out. Don’t give your claim away! It’s yours. Help us get the word out with a RT

We are having EVs catch fire left and right. I doubt these car engineers ever decided to submerge their lithium ion battery powered cars in saltwater, for six hours at 18 feet of depth, and then pulled it out to see what would happen. CC: @newsmax

This is the house pointed out yesterday that caught fire from an EV. Burned to the ground. Caught the neighbor’s house on fire too. We’re forwarding this information to . Again, when EV fires begin there’s not a lot teams can do. Plus, the gases are toxic.

If you own any EV that was flooded in salt water get it towed away from any structure. Extreme fire risk and difficult to extinguish. @elonmusk ,@ByronDonalds @JimmyPatronis .God Bless @NCFRPio

There’s a ton of EVs disabled from Ian. As those batteries corrode, fires start. That’s a new challenge that our firefighters haven’t faced before. At least on this kind of scale. #HurricaneIan

Many residents in Florida are starting recovery in the aftermath of #Ian & many will use Generators to provide power.
We want to stress these Generator safety tips.
Unfortunately, many indirect fatalities in hurricanes have occured after the fact due to improper generator use.

We’re currently coordinating fire engine strike teams. We’ve got deployments planned from non-impacted firehouses in the Panhandle to South Florida. We’ll have more once the storm passes. They’ll support fire teams who are responding to Ian. Be safe. #HurricanIan
