3rd Accident - Oct. 2003
Minor accident in rear cabin of the Santa Fe. I hooked up a portable rechargeable lantern to the rear 12volt socket. One day, after working in the garage I left the lantern on. The next day on my way to work the lantern, being that it has a built in rechargeable battery, turned on and it got hotter and hotter. The heat was too intensive and it burned almost right through the rear cargo mat.
