Yikes, don’t try driving through high water in these babies. That’s a $100 K barbeque pit.

Fisker Karma

I mean Ford Pinto. At least a Pinto needed a hard rear end collision to burst into flames, these tings go up in smoke in water.

They're blaming the problem on salt water and salt does lower water's resistance. Well if the problem really is salt water, what happens when you drive it during/after a snow storm and the road is covered in salt?

It’s possible the salt water caused a short that led to a fire.

Ya think? ;-)
