2013 Ford Escape electrical system problems

While driving down the highway ( us 82 in texas), there were flames seen coming from underneath the vehicle. A separate vehicle pulled up beside our 2013 ford escape, and yelled that the car was on fire. My son quickly pulled over, and he and his mother quickly got out of the vehicle and backed away from it. A fire truck came and put out the fire, but the car is a total loss. My wife was also treated for smoke inhalation on site, and later had to go to the hospital because she was still having problems breathing.

Tl* the contact owns a 2013 ford escape. On two occasions, while driving at unknown speeds, the vehicle stalled. The contact was unable to restart the vehicle until approximately two hours later. The vehicle was repaired; however, the failure recurred. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 70,000. The VIN was not available.
