I have a relative in the car industry here in the UK who keeps telling me that Teslas keep bursting into flames and there's some kind of massive cover-up. Surely if it were true we'd be hearing a lot more about it? They can't seem to cover-up their crazy CEO's antics or the autopilot issues, so how would they get away with this?

Of course the auto industry incumbents would publicize any weakness in tesla that they can find. Tesla fire danger is lower than ice cars, search google and find many article with hard numbers. Any fire is terrible, but the number of ice cars with fires is surprisingly large.
