Just want everyone to know out there who has a Hyundai Sonata mine's was year 2011 it caught on fire out of nowhere not sure what caused it but Hyundai Motors is working with me very well. As of now I'm very pleased with them being concerned. Just be careful, oh yeah by the way it was the engine area that caught fire.
