Excessive oil consumption cause engine pistons to blow. Seems to be a common issue. No check oil light came on or any indication that the car was low on oil. Received oil change 2k miles prior. Mechanic said this is a common issue he has seen with my year and motor. I owe $12k on a car worth nothing that I can no longer drive.

Excessive oil burning issue. Between standard oil change mileage distance, the engine can burn so much oil that it no longer registers on the dipstick setting a faulty positive for a bad rocker arm oil pressure switch. Obviously if the engine get so low on oil it can be catastrophic and if that happens at speed then it could be deadly. I've caught it early enough that so far it hasn't caused catastrophic failure but I'm told by my dealership and Honda that there is nothing to be done and to just let it break.
