Yes, a faulty oil pump can cause an engine to seize. The oil pump is responsible for circulating engine oil, which lubricates moving parts and helps dissipate heat. If the pump fails, oil pressure drops, leading to inadequate lubrication, increased friction, and potential overheating. Ultimately, this can result in severe engine damage or complete seizure.
