Description of the problem | The elantra that had 18000 miles on it burst into flames after setting overnight. The car had not been driven since the night before and it burst into flames in my driveway and completely burned up. The fire department had to come out and put the car out. They investigated the fire and found there was no foul play. It is unknown to us what caused the fire but we feel it had to be something electrical. |
