I Don't Know If I Would Use "Exploding" In A Story About Teslas -- September 30, 2019

From The Drive:
With the widespread release of Tesla's V10 software beginning earlier this week, drivers gained access to a number of new vehicle features and integrations. One particular feature was the long-awaited Smart Summon functionality which gives drivers the ability to summon their vehicles to them from across a parking lot or in some other complex scenario.
Unfortunately, things aren't going exactly as planned. As the update started to push out to vehicles over-the-air, social media quickly began exploding with people posting photos and videos of their cars navigating through parking lots and streets using Tesla's new Smart Summon feature.
With the vehicle in the operator's line of sight, they can either summon the vehicle to them using their phone's GPS location or choose a nearby point on a map and the vehicle's on-board Autopilot hardware will begin navigating where it is told.
Somehow watching your $100,000 new EV plow into a parked car would not be particularly pleasant.

And what was the writer thinking, using "exploding" in a story about Teslas?

But, best of all, there's a video at the linked story.
