No car is perfect, but in the rare event of Lithium Battery Punctures, the way Tesla has designed it, if anything happens at all. It would be a slow fire. Unlike Internal Combustion Vehicles where you would have instant fire/explosion. And The NHTSA just rated Tesla’s Vehicles #1,2&3 as the lowest probability of injury for mass produced vehicles in the history of mankind. There are thousands of deaths every day thanks to ICE Vehicles, there’s been only about a dozen Fatalities in 10 years with Tesla. So if it’s safety your concerned with, there’s no reason to wait.

I wonder how many fire departments have been trained in electrical fire/collision damage to these electric vehicles.

They gave it a 5 star rating, which is still very good but no better than any other car that gets a 5 start rating. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration issues statement about New Car Assessment Program's highest rating | NHTSA |

Even more of a question. What do you do after the warranty runs out. https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct=...Oqcg7xlEzJOY_8

There are Tesla approved body and service shops in the Orlando and Tampa/Sarasota areas, which is a about the same distance you would have to go for some other “high end” cars for factory approved and warranty repairs.

Same place I take my battery powered lawnmower when the warranty runs out. When Tesla dies where do you dispose of highly corrosive batteries? And they will die one day and I bet the replacements cost is $$,$$$. But, I bet who ever buys one will get rid of it before the warranty runs out? Just like they do their previous high end vehicles?
