I've had a couple of similar stories. I had a 4436 GS4 that decided to act funky after a derailment on my club's layout and suddenly start speeding up over speed step 20 and jump to chuffs per wheel revolution, an NS SD40-2 that had its smoke unit board quit after a brief short on the layout one day, and a Southern Crescent I bought from a forum member years ago that blew its board on my home carpet layout right when I got it in the mail. All got fixed rather quickly, fortunately.

So far, all my post 2014 Lionel locomotives have had all their electronics still functioning fine. Of course this is just my case and the locomotives I had. I have a few other LEGACY locomotives prior to 2014 and anything that went wrong with them was seriously minor like a fan motor not working.
