It is available for inspection upon request at Findlay Honda, Flagstaff AZ  We were on a highway going 70 mph when the engine started making loud thrashing noises.  Luckily, I was immediately able to pull over into shoulder the as the engine seized up.  Then got towed and haven't driven it since.  Took it to local Honda dealer - they inspected and confirmed that it was a total engine failure due to this connecting rod bearing issue and claimed a refurbished engine would be $10K and a brand new engine would be $20K  Bought it in June 2017, very well maintained. We are only owner.  Yes, our safety was put at risk based on this connecting rod bearing issue being a known issue based on NHTSA report - [XXX]  This pdf and other info found online is exactly what happened to our Ridgeline.  But mine wasn't recalled for this issue because apparently my VIN was not part of the recall...that said, this is exactly why other Ridgelines were indeed recalled.  Honda Service Manager verified the diagnosis.  There were no warning lamps or messages until the moment this incident happened on Friday Dec 5th near Seligman AZ.
