Another autopilot EV bursts into flames

Josh Kaplan was driving his Tesla Model X on a Los Angeles freeway last month when he saw another Tesla ahead of him was stopped on the highway. As he got closer, he noticed smoke coming from the vehicle.

“I noticed a car facing left against the barrier despite the road veering to the right,” Josh Kaplan told Business Insider.

The driver of the other Tesla, who was not injured in the incident, told Kaplan that he was using the Autopilot feature on his 2018 Model X, when “it suddenly veered hard to the left and stopped against the wall.”
