Connecting rod bend and broken in Baleno Engine

Hi,
My car engine connecting rod bend and broke down after 11000 Km.By investigation company says it is hydrolock. But car is in running condition and no water goes inside engine.Actually no evidence of water that cause hydrolock. What are the other reasons could lead to bending of connecting rod.

Water oil or gas, any of these can cause hydrolock. other possible causes are a valve stuck open and piston hit it, seized wrist pin on piston or something got sucked into cyl . Did they take pan or head off to check the connecting rod?

Re: Connecting rod bend and broken in Baleno Engine

Only one connecting rod broken. Rest of the things ok. Even No evidence of water inside oil. No water inside engine part and air filter. Car stopped suddenly after running 100kms.Car stopped on highway.
After further dismentlling engine they told there is more carbon lining in one head which is damaged so it proves rod bend first and then broken. Rod only bend when hydrolock happen.If you look at the carbon lining in attached photo, it is sure that it was bend earlier and then broke down. I want to know following.
If rod is bend that why there is no effect no engine performance and no sound.
Other than hydrolock what r other things which causes connecting rod bend.
I am confident that this is not happen due to water.
