Ogbeni this is simply what happens when you use money from Yahooplus to buy a car.

Even the Fire Department of New York (FDNY)'s best firetrucks can't put it off let alone those Naija 1500 handheld fire-extinguishers that have 12years expiry period.

I bet that car was eventually razed.
Either way, it will go back the same way it was gotten.
Say no to a life of rituals, fraud, yahoo-yahoo, yahooplus and you'd never experience such.


And this is the kind of comment you make when you do 10MB to disturb nairaland and could not watch the video dey asked you to watch.

I thought i saw that too grin I guess they didn't have a functional extunguisher too.

Modified:
Okay I just watched a second time, I think it was an FRSC guy who eventually came with an extinguisher. I guess he waited a bit to teach the guys a lesson on the importance of having one. grin

How come car owners abroad don’t carry fire extinguishers Simple, they have full confidence in their Fire Service Departments; to respond promptly to fire incidents!

The only reason I carry fire extinguisher in my car is to avoid Police and Road Safety wahala. I’d rather run as far as possible from a burning car than to locate a fire extinguisher and try to put out the fire!

We should task our Fire Service Departments to respond promptly instead of encouraging citizens to risk their lives trying to quench fire incidents.

The few first seconds to first moments after you discover a fire is very important. Without a fire extinghusher, the bigger fire cannot be set out but if you understand how to deal with a fire you will raise an alarm and make use of the first moments in the emergency.

This fire started from the electricals of this vehicle around the battery, no one made a big deal attempt to open the engine compartment before perhaps the cable got jammed.

Thank God another extinguisher arrived it could have been a big loss, besides you still need to get to the source of the heat to really extinguish the flames.

Some lazy auto electricians can cause this problems when they splice your cables especially the heavy current cables, connecting head lamps or radiator cooling fans. Then they simply make loose connections that can heat up and ignite other materials around it.

Say 'NO' to auto electricians who want to override or bypass your radiator fan switch with relays other than fixing the faulty relay or solid state switches.

Some of them do not understand the delay or thermostat control that operates the vehicle fans in today's cars.

They used fire extinguisher, it wasn't enough. Maybe you should watch the video again.
I tire o. The residue is clearly visible on the hood of the car. One of the guys is even seen holding and later discarding it.

The content/ compound might be expired tho.

Fire extinguisher is an important tool you need to keep in your car always as you don’t know when you might need it.

A Toyota Camry caught fire (reasons unknown) and all effort to put off the fire was fruitless until someone had to run to get a fire extinguisher to put off the fire.

So if you don’t have a fire extinguisher, buy one today or you get one from our Autojosh Auto Shop.

Kindly watch the video below.

Yes, a good fire extinguisher should be in every car, it can greatly help in case of emergency, even safe one's life. One shouldn't save on this.

Also learn how to use it!

I heard a gist of someone who threw the fire extinguisher at the fire like Erisco Bonpet. Remember PASS:

P Pull the pin.

A Aim the nozzle at the base of the fire. Hitting the top of the flame with the extinguisher won't be effective.

S Squeeze the trigger. In a controlled manner, squeeze the trigger to release the agent.

S Sweep the nozzle from side to side until the fire is put out.

Thanks for this info,
I appreciate
