Own a 2016 Georgetown XL sitting on the F-53 2015 chassis with 25500. While pulling up a small grade in Montana the engine was howling as it usually does around 5000rpm. Backed off as I topped the hill and the check engine light started flashing, started up a small hill engine around 3500 rpm light went out, topped engine rpm 2200 light flashing again. Off ramp 1 mile ahead so I was getting off to check it out. Didn?t make it the engine made a loud hiss like a air hose broke and engine died. 300 yards from exit almost made it. Aftermath is the number 5 piston hit the spark plug broke the piston and rod which now laying in the oil pan. This happened a week ago so far. Two weeks to fix or start on it as they have to work on it outside and it's cold. I thought the newer V-10s were fixed in this area. I knew older 10s did this. Spark plug issues.
