My wife's 2012 Optima's 2.0L engine seized at around 85,000 miles. The result was KMA replacing the engine and turbo under their engine recall. It sucked, but glad to have a new engine and turbo for the long haul. Same experience happened to a friend our mine who had a 2011 2.4L N/A engine, although they had 150,000 miles before the engine was toast, but KMA replaced it at no cost.
