Problems with 2017 Kia Optima ELECTRICAL SYSTEM

While my significant other and i were driving down the highway our car began smoking from under the hood, then smoke began coming through the air vents inside the car; within seconds we seen flames coming out from under the hood and immediately evacuated the vehicle in heavy traffic with no where to pull over. within minutes the entire car was engulfed in flames. there was no warning, our car was regularly maintained, there were no check engine lights or others displaying on the dash, no leaks or overheating to cause this.

I was driving to work at night time for about a week straight my head lights would randomly turn on and off by their selves while i'm driving and then my car would be sitting in my parking space and my neighbors told me my lights would just be on all night and my car would be locked and everything and one day i went out to start my car and i couldn't even unlock it to get in it so i thought it might've been my car remote battery died and so i asked a neighbor that works on cars to see what it could be they popped my hood and checked my car battery and it was completely dead, they tried to give me a jump which was just enough to allow me to unlock and get into my vehicle but my car battery was completely fried due to headlight sensor.

While i was driving probably about 45 miles an hour or so my car started to shake really hard then it shut off. once it shut off the low oil light came on along with the check engine light and the low battery light as well. after that the car went completely dead. i turned the key to the off position and then tiredness it back on with with no problem. for my car to shut off while driving on a major street causes major concerns. one what if it happens again and i get in an accident or cause an accident.
