Radiator Hose Problems of Hyundai Veracruz

Tl- the contact owns a 2010 Hyundai Veracruz. The contact stated that while in the process of turning the vehicle around from a hill, while in reverse, once the gear was shifted, it was noticed by a passenger that smoke was coming out of the hood. The vehicle was shifted in to park, both the driver and passenger exited the vehicle as a fire started under the hood. The fire department extinguished the flames and provided a report number and a police report was provided with a report number. The vehicle was not included in NHTSA campaign number: 14v415000 (engine and engine cooling), 18v934000 (engine, fuel system, gasoline), 15v568000 (engine) however the vehicle exhibited the same failures as the recall campaigns. The vehicle was not diagnosed by a dealer yet and was unable to be driven due to the vehicle being parked after it was towed to the college campus. The fire raged to the point that the dashboard melted, rubber hoses, winshield burned as well as it had fractured and the front seats melted due to the extent of the internal failure which resulted in a catastrophic fire. The manufacturer consumer affairs department requested information to investigate the cause of the fire and was to follow up with the owner to determine a response. The approximate failure mileage was not available. Dyd.
