Description of the problem	I have a 2018 hyundai tucson and it cut off on me while returning home from out of town on 4/5/2020 on 495 capital beltway. White smoke started coming out the tailpipe so i pulled over and cut the truck off, i tried to restart and it wouldn't turn over, all of the dash lights lit up, i had to call aaa to tow me home, the tow driver noticed oil under the truck and even after he towed me and put my truck on the street there was oil on his flatbed. This truck has a default with the oil plug or something, i keep up on my oil changes every 3 months, there was no warning on the dash about low oil or anything before it started smoking. Something is wrong with how this truck burns oil and it needs to be investigated. Now i have a truck sitting that i can;t drive and still have to pay a car note on.
