Hyundai recall. I am a 65 years old, I purchased this car on Nov 2018 and as I was driving to work on the highway, the car caught on fire, the flames came through the floor panel and through the vents. My entire area where the gas & brake pedal are burned up, the radio area and console area is charred beyond recognition. By the time the fire department arrived, the entire car was in flames.

When taking corners in the city I can't accelerate the car just revs for about 15-30 seconds and won't move. I have to try to pull over to get off the road. Also when accelerating from a stop the RPM's like to shoot up but the car won't take no gas. I have almost been hit twice because of this problem. Hyundai just says learn how to drive it. Learn what how to stall?

I took my car to jiffy lube on July 8th to have the oil changed on August 27th that vehicle stopped running I found out this was because of lack of oil never at any time that a service engine light soon or check oil light come on. And they are still not to this day. There has to be a problem with the sensors. I was driving the car at that time and had to have it towed home.

While driving my car it came to a sudden stop at no time did any service engine light or oil light appeared upon having my car towed home I felt there was no oil in the engine. The oil was just changed July 8th of 2017. My car stopped running August 27th a 2017. I don't understand why I never got a service engine soon or don't understand why the oil light did not appear.
