Are car fire extinguishers included with new vehicles?

[Irene]

It is understood that when consumers purchase new cars, some 4S stores will provide fire extinguishers as a complimentary item, but many 4S stores do not include them. "Our store does not provide fire extinguishers to car owners; they need to purchase them themselves. Regarding whether cars should be equipped with fire extinguishers, relevant personnel stated that car spontaneous combustion can occur at any time, and car owners should still equip their vehicles with fire extinguishers for emergencies. It is known that most fire extinguishers currently on the market are dry powder types, with a shelf life of 36 months. Additionally, since fire extinguishers can only suppress initial fire sources, when car owners discover spontaneous combustion, they must quickly locate the ignition point to extinguish it. In this regard, professionals have stated that prevention is better than cure, and it is advisable to keep one or two fire extinguishers in the cabin to handle fire sources promptly.
