What owners wrote
Our 2013 hyundai accent caught on fire was burnt so badly that the passenger front ttire melted. The fire started in the engine compartment. The vehicle had been parked for approximately 7 hours in the parking lot at work when it was reported to be on fire.
Engine/power train the engine went out on my vehicle while I was traveling from houston to dallas texas on a major highway. I had it towed to hyundai dealership who diagnosed the engine problem. I was asked to provide documentation that showed oil change maintenance was being performed from 70k-82k miles. I provided that information to the dealership and they conducted a pre-approval and sent it over to hyundai corporate.
