Timing chain tensioner on the engine broke caused damage and could not recover engine, so it had engine failure. This is pretty typical on vw engine in this time period, it was a design flaw. Spoke to VW mechanics and they see it all the time for this engine year from 2010 to 2012, when I was at their shop a VW golf was in the shop for same reason. It's only a matter of time before it breaks.
