I made sure I used terms like "a bit" because these are not catastrophic failures (although the piston coming apart is catastrophic, the engine still ran - yikes!), but it is significant damage. In all cases, the engines operated but there was increased oil usage, rough idle, loss of peak power and so on. So, don't expect a poor chip to make your motor stop working - it could damage it badly though.
