“Saturday august 25 was driving my car from branford ct to guilford ct thru north branford. Drove for around 10 minutes came to a stop light with a line of traffic. Slowed to a stop and put the car in neutral. The car turned off and would not start. Towed by aaa to my mechanic to find out why it would not start. He called and stated he could not turn the engine over. Tried several different things and the motor would not crank over even with a bar. He stated the engine seized.”
