Description of the problem	I purchased used 2014 hyundai santa fe sport on 8/31/2016 with cash. In february 2018 while driving in high speed lane accelerating to pass the rpms went red and loud bang, with smoke filling cabin through vents. I was able to cross 3 lanes of traffic run away from car called hyundai 24hr towing. They quickly picked me up and car gave me keys to loaner no questions asked, then in1 week they gave car back with brand new 2017 engine. I was thrilled. Then on july 10 driving up hill saw smoke in rear view mirror going about 35 mph. I went to pull over and head home but brakes went to floor and power steering was shot. I whipped it into park and looked up to entire windshield blocked with black smoke and orange flames. I grabbed my purse and couldn't get out because i had forgotten about seatbelt. Undid that grabbed phone and sprinted for my life as there were numerous explosions. Vehicle burned to frame. It was still under bumper to bumper warranty but the bumpers were gone! Thanks be to god that my handicapped husband had declined to come with me. I had a rental from insurance at no cost, hyundai wants all paperwork on car which burned with it.
