Lots more background needed.
Is the vehicle bog standard or has it been crammed? Has the vehicle been maintained according to factory maintenance schedule with records kept (if not dealer serviced)? was the vehicle bought at a new/used car dealer of purchased privately?
Once this is known, then the question is why did the lifter seize? what was the root cause?
VF2’s started selling September 2015 so it’s not as if we are talking about a 20 year old car that has done almost 1/2 a million kms. And even if it was 20 years old with lots of k’s, a well maintained vehicle shouldn’t see a seized lifter during its life or an issue with any other life of vehicle components.
Really, if the vehicle has been correctly maintained according to the manufacturers service schedule, there is zero reason for the lifter to have seize. So it must be lack of service, incorrect oil being used or some latent defect that caused the issue. As such, if it’s not the 1st two (owner abuse issues) and you bought the car from a dealer, I’d be pushing for an ACL statutory warranty repair
