What owners wrote
Bought car in dec 2017. July 8, 2018, car caught on fire while driving. No issues before this event. No warning, care just went up in flames starting from under the car/the engine. There have been recalls on other models of hyundai cars, but they do not include hyundai tuscons. I think this needs to be investigated before someone loses their life due to this car.
