Dangers of fire-damaged electric vehicles (EVs)
Owners of electric vehicles (EVs) should NOT attempt to start, work on, or sit in their vehicle that remains in the disaster area – this includes all types of EVs, including hybrids and plug-in electric vehicles. Fire-damaged EVs are likely to be very dangerous. A separate recovery plan for the safe handling and disposal of EVs is currently in development by the County of Maui.
