| Description of the problem | As i was exciting the freeway i began to hear a "knocking" sound, as i made the turn on to the street the car completely shut down and all the lights on my dashboard came on. Since i was in the middle of the street i attempted to restart the car and after initially starting up it then abruptly turn off once again about 20 seconds later. At this point i managaged to pull into a parking lot with the left over momentum. Had to get it towed to the newrest hyundai dealer. After they inspected it, they determined my crankshaft had seized and 2 and half weeks later here i am still waiting for an engine they say is on backorder. |
