broken jeep

well some of you know that yesterday about 10 miles from my house my jeep decided to take a crap.....pop and my engine looses power and I get a really loud tapping go kart sound that increases with acceleration.....long store short today I drop it off and one of my pushrods is bent like crazy....not straight like it should be....they are still determining what caused the bend pushrod im crossing my fingers and trying to decide if I should take a hit on this lemon of a jeep and trade it in on something new.....any ideas????....I would most likely part it out and return it back to stock
