They would have not replaced the engine if I brought it in before it failed.
I'm looking forward to our spring cruise whenever it is! Hopefully they take care of it for you and you will be able to join us!

I can't remember anything that the road could have done that would have caused the engine to fail in any way.

I wasn't really suggesting that the route physically caused your engine to fail, but rather that maybe that route is cursed.
