Abstract

: This study analyzed the cause of a foreign car fire. The high-priced car was filled with gasoline at a gas station and driven approximately 3 km. The fire occurred when the car turned left at the crossing. In order to investigate the cause of the fire, the black box video of the car that followed the foreign car was analyzed, as well as the CCTV of the gas station, which recorded the moments when the foreign car entered the gas station, when the car was filled with gasoline, and when it was started. The car service center repair records were analyzed, and the foreign car was investigated. Finally, it was proven that the foreign car fire was caused by coolant leak due to a defective coolant hose fastener.

The number of camping cars is increasing owing to the increasing trend of “untact” healing brought about by the prolonged COVID-19 pandemic and the spread of the camping culture. With an increase in the number of camping cars, camping car fires are concurrently on the rise. This study analyzes the fire statistics, fire cases, and regulatory status related to camping cars. As a preventive measure, the study proposes to establish safety standards, install safety facilities, and strengthen safety management measures that must be complied with during the manufacture of camping cars.
