SAN DIEGO SAN DIEGO — A fire at a Kearny Mesa car dealership Wednesday damaged a building and multiple vehicles — including at least one electric vehicle — before the flames were knocked down, the San Diego Fire-Rescue Department said.
The blaze at Volvo Cars San Diego’s service center was reported shortly after 2:05 p.m. on Kearny Mesa Road just west of state Route 163. It was knocked down shortly before 2:25 p.m., the department said on X, formerly known as Twitter.
No injuries were reported.
“Several crews working a fire at a Volvo dealership on Kearny Mesa Rd. Electric vehicles and structure burning. HAZMAT crew en route. Please avoid the area if possible,” the department posted on X.
It was not immediately known how the fire began. A damage estimate wasn’t immediately available.
Photos posted on X showed crews spraying water on flames coming from cars in what appeared to be a covered garage area.
ABC 10News San Diego posted video taken from a helicopter that showed a large area covered in white foam. Flames blackened the roof above the service center where the fire burned.
