More than a dozen cars went up in flames inside a Newark Airport parking lot early Thursday in a fast-spreading, chain-reaction fire.

The blaze broke out inside a car parked atop the Terminal C lot around 7 a.m., then quickly jumped to 16 other vehicles, authorities said.

Many of the rides were totalled before the Newark Fire Department could quash the flames. No injuries were reported.

The cause remains under investigation, but it’s believed that the fire originated inside a Dodge Durango that had recently had its alternator replaced, according to ABC-7.

The owner of the SUV was taken into custody, according to Port Authority police, although they couldn’t immediately say why.

The blaze came hours after some 200 FDNY firefighters knocked down a five-alarm fire inside a warehouse on Vernon Avenue in Brooklyn.

No one was hurt, but buses were brought in to warm the crews working in near-zero weather.
