Tesla Motors has confirmed that it is investigating a Model S garage fire that occurred Toronto earlier this month, according to Edmunds.
"In this particular case, we don't yet know the precise cause, but have definitively determined that it did not originate in the battery, the charging system, the adapter or the electrical receptacle, as these components were untouched by the fire," said Liz Jarvis-Shean, a Tesla spokeswoman, according to the website.
Most reports claim the fire took place in the garage after the vehicle's owner returned from a drive out.
The Model S was not plugged in at the time the fire occurred.
"Dealing with occasional fires is something that every car company has to do, as no vehicle is completely fireproof under all circumstances," said Jarvis-Shean. "What matters is the number of such incidents per car, and it is worth noting that gasoline car companies experience an average of five to ten times more fires per car than Tesla."
A probe was opened into the Model S vehicles in November for 13,108 Tesla Model S vehicles.
"Also extremely important is the fact that there has never been a serious injury or death in a Model S as a result of a fire or any other cause. The Model S continues to have the best safety track record of any vehicle in the world," said Jarvis-Shean.
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration confirmed recently that two incidents have occurred on U.S. public highways in which a Model S caught fire.
