Tata Zest catches fire

Now, it is very easy for many to blame it on the manufacturers, but there are times when a short-circuit due to multiple reasons could affect the vehicle. Like aftermarket accessories that do not match with the vehicle’s specifications on many occasions. There are many such issues reported from different car brands on this.
