Crashes
A crash or impact significant enough to
require an emergency response for
conventional vehicles would also require the
same response for an electric or
hybrid-electric vehicle.
If Possible:
1. Move your vehicle to a safe, nearby
location and remain on the scene.
2. Roll down the windows before you switch
your vehicle off.
3. Place your vehicle in park (P), set the
parking brake, switch off the vehicle,
activate the hazard flashers and move
your key(s) at least 16 ft (5 m) away from
the vehicle.
Always:
•
Call emergency assistance if needed and
advise that an electric or hybrid-electric
vehicle is involved.
• Avoid contact with leaking fluids and
gases, and remain out of the way of
oncoming traffic until emergency
responders arrive.
• When emergency responders arrive, tell
them that the vehicle involved is an
electric vehicle or hybrid-electric vehicle.
Fires
As with any vehicle, call emergency
assistance immediately if you see sparks,
smoke or flames coming from the vehicle.
Remain a safe distance from the vehicle and
try to stay clear of the smoke.
1. Exit the vehicle immediately.
2. Advise emergency assistance that an
electric or hybrid-electric vehicle is
involved.
3. As with any vehicle fire, do not inhale
smoke, vapors or gas from the vehicle,
as they may be hazardous.
Post-Incident
1. Do not store a severely damaged vehicle
with a lithium-ion battery inside a
structure or within 49 ft (15 m) of any
structure or vehicle.
2. Make sure that passenger and luggage
compartments remain ventilated.
3. Call emergency assistance if you observe
leaking fluids, sparks, smoke or flames,
or hear gurgling or bubbling from the
high-voltage battery.
