“Engine failure - car has 32k miles; never had any warning light appear on the dash; out of no where developed a knocking noise. The car was sitting for approximately 2 weeks and once started and driving a knocking noise started approximately 5 minutes into my drive; therefore I brought it immediately to the dealer.
