Was driving home from work, turned at intersection and car just died while in motion/traffic. No check engine line, no low oil indicator, no overheat, no warning whatsoever. Was able to coast to adjacent intersection and police officer helped push off to side. Tried to restart but engine just wouldn’t turn over. Electrical fine, dashboard lit up. Towed it to my mechanic and he suspected either alternator or intercooler hose failure. But when he checked it out, nothing, inexplicably could not get engine to crank. I’ve religiously babied this car with AMS Oil Full Synthetic - Signature Series SAE 5W-30 every 7.5k-8k miles, premium gas, regularly maintained. Though I am at high mileage (121,873 mi), I honestly expected longer life for the engine. I just got no warning whatsoever. The contact stated the vehicle has exceeded 100k mi warranty by 20k, and wondering what further actions can be taken to get Hyundai to investigate a possible warranty or even partially warranty for repairs.

My car caught on fire after going to Hyundai and being told “the only thing you have to worry about is your breaks locking up. My car was parked in the driveway and caught on fire from the engine bay.

My 2013 Hyundai Genesis coupe with the 2.0L Theta II engine that was part of a recall from hyundai for other vehicles engine crapped out. It's the same issue from the same years as the other ThetaII recall, but because my car is a different model I am not covered in the class action lawsuit. Cars should not stop working at 64K miles and car companies should not skirt their responsibility when other engines of the same type have failed.
