My car shut off driving down the road earlier, and it seemed to be out of oil. am i screwed?

i added more oil to it and it still won't crank. i thought the engine might be jammed, but it still makes the cranking sound and everything normal so i figure it may be the fuel pump or a fuse. but i can really use an expert's opinion.

If by ';cranking sound'; you mean the engine is turning over normally and if it sounds just like it would prior to firing up, it will be something not too desperate. Trying to bump start with some help from two or three people might work.My car shut off driving down the road earlier, and it seemed to be out of oil. am i screwed?
If it seized up because of no or very low oil, it might have permanent damage. However, it's possible it'll be drivable again after it cools down, and the seized parts let go of each other. That can take several hours.





I've had seized engines free up after several hours, so it's possible..
What told you it was low on oil? You don't say you looked at the dipstick.





Sounds like you have a maintenance issue. Could be ignition, computer, or fuel pump. You'll need to get it to a garage to have it checked. Too little info in your question to diagnose specifics.
