NHTSA Complaint #11462445 — 2014 HYUNDAI SANTA FE

While driving on the interstate the engine completely seized. I managed to quickly get to the side of the road by coasting. I was traveling in the left passing lane at a speed of 65-70 mph and had to cut into the right lane in order to safely make it to the side of the road. Luckily I did not have any of my three children in the car with me. Prior to this, there were no waring lights, i.e. check engine, low oil etc. and no signs of any oil leaks, no smell of burning oil and no blue smoke from the exhaust. The independent service center confirmed that the engine did not have any oil in it causing the seizure and ultimately blowing the engine. I take the vehicle in for regular maintenance for oil changes, tire rotations etc. as well as having it inspected per state emissions requirements.
