Tamara recall I have a 2014 Hyundai sante fe sport, the paint has started to chip on the front part of the hood.
- Marianna, FL, USA
After driving the vehicle 15 miles on the highway, we drove on residential street for about 1.5 miles. As I was turning into a parking structure the engine stopped and the vehicle lost power. I glided the vehicle to a red zone no parking area on the street and stopped the vehicle. Black smoke quickly appeared from under the hood and flames quickly appeared. The front of the vehicle soon became engulfed in flames shooting 4-6 feet high. The fire department arrived and sprayed the front of the vehicle with a foam fire retardant. Then they cut the hood latch and open the hood. The entire engine compartment, windshield and the front passenger area were completely destroyed. The vehicle was melted to the street and the tow driver had to smash it loose.
