<p>Since 2009/10, detailed information on the causes of fires attended by fire and
rescue services has been collected on the Incident Recording System.</p><p>Figures
for road vehicle fires – broken down for the last five years and by fire and rescue
service - are available in Table 3b(iv) of the Department’s Fire Statistics Monitor
statistical release, which can be found at:</p><p><a href="https://www.gov.uk/government/statistics/fire-statistics-monitor-april-2014-to-march-2015"
target="_blank">https://www.gov.uk/government/statistics/fire-statistics-monitor-april-2014-to-march-2015</a></p><p>The
Incident Recording System shows a total of 224 fire incidents attended by fire and
rescue services between 2010/11 and 2014/15 (the latest year for which data are available)
in which the word ‘Zafira’ was included in the make and model free text box.</p><p>The
quality and extent of the make and model information provided by services is variable
and its accuracy and completeness cannot be guaranteed. Recorded incidents do not
include judgments on whether the cause of the incident related to the vehicle (either
its manufacture or maintenance), the driver, other circumstances or a combination
of those factors. This information should not, therefore, be used in isolation to
make judgments about the safety of particular vehicles.</p>
