Allegedly the government, may ask councils to remove all licenced zafira,s, from the road due to the fire risk, and that if fully loaded the rear passengers could not get out quickly enough

No, separate issues.
However the latest advice letter we have had states that we should use the fans on setting 0 or setting 4. All 4 of the cars have been in for the first recall and no issues were found with any of them. I await the next recall.
