Now the engineers need to work on damage prevention from the inside as well as outside the vehicle. Maybe NASA has a fire proof low cost space suit with body armor by now? What's next? I can't imagine they couldn't smell the propane in advance.

Vehicle engineers would just add a propane detector which would, if triggered, roll all windows down, and lock the vehicle from starting until it is towed to a dealership, similar to what is done when newer diesel ECUs sense no DEF present.
Good idea!
A propane detector is also known as a hydrocarbon detector common to most of our RV's. But, . . . . how sensitive should it be? I can see it now. You're driving down the road, your significant other breaks wind, the engine stops, the windows open and now your on the side of the road calling AAA for a tow back to the dealer to clear the fault code. Now there's some sitcom material. What should the f*rt code be?
