When Toyota's had problems I didn't see an article on /. saying there are 30 million Toyotas on the road and only a few of them happen to randomly accelerate and crash and burn their occupants, so it's not such a big deal.

Nobody is suggesting tesla's catching fire is ok. Point is when you compare tesla's fire catching statistics to other cars, there is nothing remarkable about them. But i bet you no( or few) other cars happen to randomly accelerate and and crash in comparison to the toyotas.
