1 Engine Shut Off Without Warning problem

Failure Date: 12/13/2020

The vehicle was bought brand new and was only driven for a week. It was in motion on the freeway when the engine started to sound noisier than usual, like that of an older truck. It was hard to notice on higher speeds on the freeway, but upon slowing down on curves, it got more obvious that something was really wrong because the noise sounded like something was loose inside the engine. There was no 'check engine' light or any other warning lights. Upon exiting the freeway, the engine shut off completely while in motion. Fortunately, I was able to pull in a parking lot and park it safely. The engine would not start safely after that, and 'check engine' activated. The vehicle is currently being diagnosed at a dealership. Last update was that the engine was being taken apart completely because they said it's definitely inside it.
