Clearly haven’t read any of the threads about the issue.

Your car could be fine for the next 100,000 miles or blow up tomorrow. Bearings have gone wel before your mileage for others. To each their own, the cost of replacement seems like cheap insurance to me compared to the alternative.
I have read all the threads about it. The average lifespan of the rod bearings is 80k miles. In some cases, you can hear a loud clinking noise coming from the engine which is an indication you're rod bearings may be going out. Either way I am okay because my car is under warranty
