| Description of the problem | Going down the highway at about 75 mph and the engine just shut off. The check engine light and the oil light along with an eps light came on when the engine shut off. No other lights were on before that. Came to a stop and the engine would not crank back up. Had the car towed hour and half back home and was told the engine was seized up. It did not give any kind of warning and has not been able to start at all since. I learned about the recall and towed the car to hyundai 7/21/17, even though i never got notification of a possible recall for this issue. Apparently they had 5 recalls listed under my vehicle, and i had only gotten a notification for one, which was the shift cable issue. Still waiting for a response from hyundai |
