My kia sportage 2019 caught fire on the highway in new market md at around 10:30 am 9/26/19. we had previously taken the car to the dealership where we purchased it back in 12/2019. it had only 3900+/- miles on it. the oil, filter, tire rotation and 27 point inspection was done on 9/19/19. as i was in the left lane of rte 70 wb i noticed blue smoke coming from the back of the car. i put on my flashers and signaled over to the right shoulder. i called my husband and was quite hysterical because now the front of the car was smoking a brownish-black. it quickly started coming in they the vents. i couldn't figure out what to do - may have been in some sort of shock. but i finally left the vehicle but was still too close. a passerby, jeremiah darling of nj, assisted me to a safe place and i heard a pop then the flames started coming quickly.
I was recently involved in a collision with a deer. i was travelling at 55mph when i hit the deer square on and my air bags did not deploy. also every time i wash my car some of the electrical components stop working for a few days such as the clock. i have talked to kia dealership near me and they can not explain the issue over the electrical stuff. also they stated i could start a case with them over the airbags
