The passenger car equipped with an air conditioning system has a device (7) for preventing fire damage, which is arranged in the engine compartment of the passenger car and which is triggered automatically, and therefore the air conditioning system can be operated with an environmentally friendly refrigerant that enables improved efficiency, the use of which leads to an excessive risk of fire in previous vehicle air conditioning systems. For this purpose, a compactly dimensioned aerosol generator (7) is arranged in the engine compartment. The aerosol generator interacts with at least one triggering means (8, 9), which can be automatically triggered due to a pressure drop in the air conditioning system or due to imminent damage (crash) of components of the air conditioning system and thus before fire arises so that the engine compartment (1) is filled with aerosol when refrigerant is discharged from components (5) of the air conditioning system arranged in the engine compartment. The design is promoted by an aerosol generator (7), the aerosol of which is formed by burning off a solid (20).
