Odometer has $42,000 miles. Car was running fine at 2,200 rpms (on highway, 70 mph with cruise control on) when out of no where I heard a faint knocking from the engine. Before I could get off at the next exit the knock was extremely loud. Before I could get home (3 miles) the engine seized. The oil was changed 700 miles ago and the oil level was full at the time of the incident.
