With Tesla quality control, a fire is just a bug, until it kills the truck.
Edit: and before an Elon bootlicker comments that it was fireworks in the truck bed -- I get it. The joke is based on Tesla's reputation for poor build quality, and yes, it has that reputation.
Fireworks are made of flammable metals or other flammable elements that burn differently depending on their makeup. Electric batteries contain some of these, so it stands to reason that you would see something like this if one exploded. Especially with thousands of individual cells.
Cells can light off individually with color was my point, but you are in fact correct. I'd only seen one video at the time and it certainly wasn't the best quality so it was hard to tell.

The battery didn’t blow, the lights on the truck are still on in the aftermath photo

The truck exploded with red fireworks flying everywhere, that's not how battery fires look like usually
