Description of the problem	I am reporting a third incident that occurred after the date of the earlier two incidents i previously reported in my earlier complaints. After the previous incident, hyundai burlingame (1025 rollins road, burlingame, ca 94010), installed a new engine and installed a new fuel intake valve. On october 19, 2013, the second repair work was completed and i picked up the car. On december 4, 2013, i was driving the car on us 101, northbound traveling approximately 70 mph when the car began to make loud clanging noises and violently shake and shudder and the engine light came on. I was able to pull off the highway just as the car again experienced a catastrophic engine failure. As the engine failed, the power to the steering went out and this made the car difficult to maneuver. The car was towed to hyundai burlingam and is awaiting repair.
