IIRC, the fires at Ground Zero did not go out until January 2002 - surviving drenching rains, and a NYC winter. Those fires generated lots of heat and were producing melted steel for 3+ months.
At the time, the narrative was that the firs kept finding more fuel in the parking garage, where they would ignite the cars. Except - most of those cars were recovered, with their gas tanks intact.
