Connecting rod failure. This could have been a serious issue as it happened on the highway. I was in the middle lane when it locked up. Luckily i was able to safely get to the shoulder. There was no warning before it happened. ( no engine light, no noises at all). This has been inspected by my local honda dealer and confirmed.
