I can't think of ANY other vehicle with a similar issue, other than the early Ford 6.0 Powerstroke diesel.
Any Mitsubishi car with the 4G63 engine prior to MY95 or so. The infamous "crankwalk" engine which has been similarly demonized by the internet for being a time bomb. And much like the M9x engines, the failure rate is MUCH lower than the internet would have you believe.
1990s BMW M60 V8 with Nikasil cylinder walls. Our higher sulfur content gas would literally eat the cylinder walls until they no longer made compression.
