Mine died last night on the highway. I had the recall work done exactly 2 months ago, along with a new clutch and spark plugs since they were already in there. It took them 3 weeks to do the work, when I got it back the car felt fine, but I kept it under 5K RPMS for the past 3500-4000 miles.
Brought it up to 5.5/6.5K yesterday when merging and almost immediately the usual whirr turned into a horrible grind. Felt like the drain plug fell out. The oil light came on, then check engine, then every other code. Put it in neutral and coasted to the shoulder, smelled like burnt oil and had intermittent smoke coming out once the oil cap was removed.
It currently won't turn over so I'm doing some research before taking it back to the dealer that did the recall work.

No research to be done. It starved for oil and you spun at least one bearing.
