Yellow journalism?
Solar panels typically have 0.05% failure rate. "Tesla" (Solar City) systems, 2.9% caught fire!
2.9% of systems / 0.05% of panels = 58x as high a rate.
If a Walmart rooftop system has just 58 panels (half what I have), those would be equal numbers.
Of course, it is "system fires" vs. "panel failures", hopefully vast majority of panel failures isn't a fire!
