Description of the problem	I was driving northbound on a freeway to pick up my 3 year old daughter. My car engine completely died/stalled while driving 65mph. As soon as i tried to get into the emergency lane, i noticed smoke coming from the engine. I grabbed my purse which was on the passenger seat next to me, and i exited the vehicle immediately . As soon as i exited the vehicle, the entire engine and front of my car was in flames. The fireman arrived on the scene within 5-10 minutes, but by the time they had gotten the fire out, my entire car was totaled. I had a recall on my car for possible engine failure while driving a year ago, i took my car into sacramento hyundai where they told me they had fixed it, along with multiple other recalls on my vehicle that i was unaware of. Now, a year later after hyundai said they fixed my recalls, my car stalled while driving, but this time the entire engine caught fire with it, and the entire car is totaled. It was the scariest, most traumatic experience i
