Description of the problem	Takata recall. We were driving on a state hwy at 55mph and starting to hear a knock from the engine. In the year and a half of owning the vehicle there were no issues. No indicator of issues or anything. We even had it serviced 2 weeks prior and there were no problems. Within a 2 mile span of the knock starting the vehicle engine seized and shut down. Fortunately, no one was behind us because there was nowhere safe to pull over to for about 1/8mile so we coasted and crept at about 5mph to a driveway where we then were towed to a safer location. No lights or indicators came on until the moment the vehicle shut down. Apparently, this is common with 2013 model hyundai santa fe sport engines after discussing it with their customer service representative.
