There's all kinds of random internal failures.
But my favorite is that when the serpentine belt fails, due to a design flaw in the crank pulley, it gets sucked into through the crank seal and trashes the engine.
It turns what is pretty typically a low stakes failure into a dead engine. (Or even if the engine "survives," it's not going to be worth the effort required to disassemble and clean out the trash.)
