Very interesting this explosive charge design, I wonder if anyone know how it works. Maybe some diagrams and the mechanism how the explosion is triggered. The whole concept sounds dangerous without knowing all the facts. If there is an explosive change I would imagine it may be a life time unserviceable component of the car then, that is if it is not physically damaged before it's life time period.
