"Vehicle fires have become an increasingly common occurrence at the hottest place on Earth, most of which are caused by the same issue that plagued the truck last month. Brakes can quickly burn up going down steep grades."
"The national park broke all-time temperature records in July; that same month, a truck was completely destroyed in a brake fire as it descended Towne Pass."
