While driving 60 miles an hour on the interstate heading to work I begin to hear a knocking from my engine. I put my flashers on and begin to slow down because I begin to smell smoke. I was able to navigate into the nearest gas station and turn the car off. When I tried to restart the car it would not turn over. I checked the oil just to make sure because of the smell and the oil was depleted. I put three layers of oil into my car so I could get it started enough to get it to the express oil change nearby. I dropped my car off there and they performed a diagnostic test where they informed me that the engine had failed. I made a service appointment with my dealer who finally contacted me back today saying they would take a look at the car and let me know if it was part of the recall. I was never notified by Hyundai or my dealership that my engine was recalled. I currently am without a car and was told that a service vehicle may be provided if it's deemed that my engine failed due to the recalled issue. I have already spent $200 in uber rides.

The problem started with a ticking noise. I changed the oil hoping that this would resolve the issue but nothing changed. So, on the way home from running errands I hit the gas and the car made a bunch of loud noises and then stalled. It also began leaking oil. I removed the panel from underneath to see what happened and saw a bunch of aluminum fragments all over the panel.
