Description of the problem	Whilst driving on md 50 highway, in the right lane fortunately, the engine just stopped. The vehicle was coasted to the shoulder. When towed to my mechanic it was examined and the engine was seized. The symptoms are exactly the same as occurred with the 2011 and 2012 models of this car. It appears that the manufacturing problems are not fully resolved. The vehicle has since been towed to a hyundai dealer for examination. (preston hyundai, hurlock maryland)
