Parked Tata Harrier caught fire
Last year, a parked Tata Harrier caught fire in Gujarat. According to the owner, he parked the car late at night and it caught fire soon after that. According to the owner, he was facing battery draining issue with the Harrier and sent the vehicle for a service as well.
The service centre had charged the batter and put it back in the car. However, it drained completely again within three days of service. The service centre then decided to replace the battery with a brand-new one. Tata Motors investigation shows that the fire was started around the bonnet area of the car, which is where the battery is placed. The owner did not give any update on the incident after that.
Modern cars have a complex network of wires. Any short circuiting can spark the fire. However, it is important to know that aftermarket accessories can increase the risk of such fires and one should completely refrain from using any kind of third party accessories.
