Almost 200,000 gas cars self-ignite in the US each year.

These stats show less than 200,000 total vehicle fires per year for several years (from 2009 to 2015). Prior to that, numbers were over 200,000 per year dating back to 1980 (which came in at over 450,000 car fires).

The numbers are not out of line, but the "self-ignite" part is debatable.

” but the “self-ignite” part is debatable.”

I did my homework. If you want to debate after doing your homework ping me.
