Engine began to lose power while driving in the city(surging). Check engine light came on. Just before getting home the engine backfired through the tailpipe(twice) the car stalled and had to be towed to the dealer. Upon investigation it was found that the engine had blown up. An exhaust valve head and the remains of the piston were found in the oil pan. A new 3 litre duratech engine is going to be ordered under warranty to replace the broken one.
