While driving the vehicle on the freeway it began to slow down and I was no longer able to accelerate. After attempting to pull over, other vehicles began blowing their car horns to let me know something was wrong. Once I came up on the off ramp, the inside of the car began filling with smoke. I had to open the door and jump from the vehicle while it was still in motion. At that moment it became fully engulfed with fire. I have since found out via the internet that a recall has been issued for the vehicle. I have not received any official notice from the car manufacture. The car was a total loss as it was completely destroyed as it burned on the side of the road. My safety was risked as I was driving my car while it was on fire and I had to jump from a moving vehicle to avoid being burned in fire.

I have yet to experience a safety problem due to the recall associated with my vehicle. However, the recall relates to brake fluid leaking and catching fire when the car is either parked or in drive. Because Hyundai has yet to find a remedy for this dangerous recall in a timely manner, it has brought great anxiety and fear as a young driver.
