Plenty of Teslas took fire while charging.
I kinda hate this "Chinese = crap" narrative, it's naive, it misses the forest for the trees.
Just because they are the biggest manufacturer in the world they also produce lots of crap, it's just statistically more probable that you gonna find lots of crap that's Chinese, but generalizing this over entire industries and all kind of products is just...naive.
It kinda reminds me of that documentary where a Chinese billionaire buys a plant in Ohio to make car glass and American workers looked like crap compared to their Chinese counterparts when it came to the craft, even though they did produce glass before already before the Chinese ownership.
It's the kind of narrative that people pushed on Russian army after their failures in Ukraine claiming huge incompetence and their incoming demise. Or when people were sure their economy was gonna collapse because this and that.
Just saying stuff doesn't make it true.
The longer we keep with those biases the more naive and vulnerable we'll keep being.
