If it was a catastrophic engine failure due to oil quality, I would check first whether your Mobil 1 was real or counterfeit. Same for the filter or any part that could have been substituted. Any parts bought from discount sources can be counterfeit, and Mobil 1 is not immune to it. People were buying Mobil 1 bottles and filling it with any oil.
