    Break out the marshmallows if you own a Hyundai or Kia

    Well, it's seems Hyundai & Kia have obviously confused ICE (Internal Combustion Engine) with ECE (External Combustion Engine)

    This is getting some laughs on the Bolt forums. For those not familiar with the Bolt situation, they had a battery manufacturing defect in a few Bolt batteries which caused them to get into thermal runaway and catch fire. This got so much negative press that some California parking lots/garages posted these signs...

    For customer safety:

    CHEVROLET BOLT EVs are STRICTLY PROHIBITED from parking at this facility.

    Thank you for your compliance!

    What is it with Hyundai/Kia and engine fires? This feels like at least the third recall, and all from different causes. Some enginerds are going to be updating their resumes.

    Hyunadai needs to go back to using Mitsubishi engines.
