"Something very fishy going on," commented one user on the Youtube video.
Another wrote, "No freakin' way was this a coincidence. Absolutely no way".
“I feel like the fact that 5 of President Biden’s Secret Service rental cars suddenly burst into flames in the Nantucket Airport parking lot less than 24 hours after they were returned should maybe be a slightly bigger story,” said one user on Twitter.
“Biden’s secret service rented vehicles burst into flames! Terrorism? 5 vehicles caught fire. Something is very wrong here,”said another.
As per Forbes an investigation of the incident is underway. The current popular theory is that the fire began in a Ford Expedition, which has been under a safety recall since May because of a defective battery junction box known to cause fires.
However, as per the Daily Beast, the car company Hertz is investigating the fire. Anthony Guglielmi, a Secret Service spokesman said that they had no issues while driving the vehicles and that the cars were returned without incident.
