MY FUEL PUMP ISN'T WORKING ON MY VEHICLE WHICH THERE IS AN OPEN RECALL FROM VOLKSWAGEN WHICH WAS PUT IN PLACE AUGUST OF 2017 THIS IS NOW MID APRIL AND MY VEHICLE IS OUT OF COMMISSION AND VOLKSWAGEN CLAIM EVEN THOUGH THEY HAVE THE OPEN RECALL THEY AREN'T AUTHORIZED TO START MAKING THE REPAIRS FOR THESE FAULTY VEHICLES WHICH LEAVES US CONSUMERS STUCK WITH UNSAFE VEHICLES AND IN MY CASE AN VEHICLE I'M MAKING PAYMENTS ON BUT CAN'T CURRENTLY DRIVE BECAUSE MY FUEL SYSTEM WENT COMPLEXITY OUT SO NOW MY CAR WON'T CRANK WHICH LEAVES ME IN AN EXTREME BIND CONSIDERING I USE MY CAR FOR WORK. SO NOW I'M CURRENTLY OUT OF WORK I SPOKE WITH THE VOLKSWAGEN DEALERSHIP THIS MORNING AND THEY CAN'T OFFER ANY LOANERS OR ANY ASSISTANCE UNTIL THEY RECEIVE AUTHORIZATION TO START REPAIRS. 8 MONTHS AFTER THE RECALL HAS BEEN ISSUED AND THEY ARE STILL NOT AUTHORIZED TO MAKE THESE REPAIRS????? THEY CLAIM THEY STILL HAVE NOT BEEN SHIPPED THE PARTS????? HOW IS THIS POSSIBLE I KNOW I'M NOT THE ONLY PERSON AFFECTED BY THIS SITUATION IT'S A RECALL ON 281,000 VEHICLES MADE BY THEM. YOU WOULD THINK THEY WOULD ACT SWIFTLY IN REPAIRING THESE VEHICLES MY CAR INITIALLY WOULD STALL OFTEN BUT I CONTINUED TO DRIVE IT BECAUSE AGAIN IT'S MY ONLY MEANS ON TRANSPORTATION AND I HAVE A LOAN OUT ON IT AND CAN'T JUST NOT MAKE MY CAR PAYMENTS OR MY CREDIT WILL BE SCREWED. SO AFTER DRIVING AN U SAFE CAR THAT STALLS ON THE HIGHWAYS, LOCAL ROADWAYS AND ANYWHERE ELSE I MAY HAVE DRIVEN MY VEHICLE NOW IT'S NOT WORKING AT ALL AND THERE'S NOTHING THEY ARE DOING ABOUT IT AS OF YET.....8 MONTHS AFTER THEY ISSUED THE RECALL AND STILL NO HELP TO THE CONSUMERS DEALING WITH THESE ISSUES

TAKATA RECALL. ALL LOCAL DEALERSHIPS SAY (AS THEY HAVE SAID SINCE JUNE OF 2013) THAT THERE IS NO FIX AVAILABLE YET. I HAVE OWNED THE CAR SINCE 2013 AND 5 YEARS LATER THERE IS STILL NO FIX AND I DO NOT WANT TO DIE IF AND WHEN THE AIRBAGS EXPLODE AND SHOOT SHRAPNEL INTO MY EYES.

CAR HAS STALLED 2X WHILE DRIVING ON A HIGHWAY. WHEN TRYING TO ACCELERATE, THE CAR WILL BUCK AND HESITATE AT ABOUT 2K TO 3K RPM AND HAVE VIRTUALLY 0 ACCELERATION. THE EPC LIGHT WILL KICK ON AND THEN THE CAR HAS SLOWER ACCELERATION BUT IT DOES NOT BUCK AND HESITATE. THE ISSUE HAPPENS WHEN THE CAR IS COLD AND WARMING UP. WHEN THE CAR STALLED, I WAS DOWNSHIFTING, AND THEN THE BATTERY LIGHT CAME ON. THE CAR JUST DIED. HAD TO PULL OVER AND THEN RESTART THE CAR. THE CAR WOULD THEN BUCK AND HESITATE AGAIN UNTIL THE EPC LIGHT CAME ON. I AM AFRAID THIS WILL HAPPEN WHEN CROSSING A ROAD AND CAUSE AN ACCIDENT.

WHILE TRAVELING ON THE FREEWAY IN SAN DIEGO, MY CAR STARTED SHAKING AND LOSING POWER. THEN THE EPC & CHECK ENGINE LIGHTS TURNED ON, ON THE DASHBOARD. I WAS BARELY ABLE TO PULL OVER TO THE SHOULDER, AND DRIVE OFF THE UPCOMING EXIT RAMP. I LOST TOTAL ENGINE POWER, AND I HAD TO CALL THE TOWING TRUCK TO TAKE ME TO THE CLOSEST DEALERSHIP, AS THE CAR IS STILL UNDER WARRANTY. I WAITED 5 HOURS TO FIND OUT WHAT WAS HAPPENING, AS I LIVE IN ANOTHER CITY. THE DEALERSHIP TECHNICIAN TOLD ME THAT THEY RECORDED SEVERAL PISTON MISFIRES, BUT AFTER RESETTING THE COMPUTER, THE FAULTS NEVER CAME BACK. THEIR INTERNAL POLICY REQUIRED THE FAULT TO BE PRESENT FOR THE COMPANY TO COMPLY TO REPLACE FAULTY PARTS, EVEN WHEN THEY HAD THE RECORDS. THEY TOLD ME THEY COULD NOT HELP ME, AND ADVISED TO TAKE THE CAR AND DRIVE IT TO THE DEALERSHIP WHERE I LIVED. I DID SO, AND I GOT THE SAME RESPONSE FROM MY LOCAL DEALERSHIP. THEY TOLD ME THEY WOULD NOT HELP ME DUE TO INTERNAL POLICIES, AND THAT I SHOULD DRIVE THE CAR AS IS, UNTIL THE ISSUE CAME UP AGAIN. I EXPLAINED THIS COULD PUT ME & MY FAMILY AT RISK OF INJURY, EVEN POSSIBLE DEATH DUE TO A HIGHWAY ACCIDENT, NOT TO MENTION THE COST I COULD INCUR FOR ANOTHER TOW TRUCK & HOTEL EXPENSES. THEY DECLINED TO REPLACE THE PARTS, EVEN AFTER I OPENED A CASE WITH THEIR CUSTOMER SUPPORT MANAGER. I EXPLAINED I WOULD HAVE TO SEEK LEGAL ADVICE AS I FELT I WAS BEING A VICTIM OF FRAUD BY WV COMPANY. THE LOCAL DEALERSHIP NOT ONLY NOT FIXED MY PROBLEM, BUT HE CHARGED ME WITH A CHECK-UP FEE. I COULD NOT BE MORE DISSAPOINTED AT THIS COMPANY.

CAR LOSES ENGINE POWER DURING ACCELERATION TO THE POINT IT FEELS THE CAR MAY STALL OUT. THIS ISSUE IS NOT CONSTANT, IT IS RANDOM. THERE IS NO " CHECK ENGINE" LIGHT AT ANY TIME BEFORE, DURING, OR AFTER EVENT. I LEARN TODAY THAT MY FUEL MODULE AND RELATED SEALS AND PUMP ARE FAULTY AND NEED TO BE REPLACED BUT MY VIN IS NOT PART OF VW RECALL FOR THIS VERY SAME ISSUE ON OTHER CC'S. THIS IS A DANGEROUS PROBLEM WHEN DRIVING TO SUDDENLY LOSE ENGINE POWER. PERHAPS THE RECALL NEEDS TO BE EXPANDED?

AS OF NOVEMBER 2017 MY VOLKSWAGEN CC HAS BECOME INOPERABLE AND A SAFETY HAZARD DUE TO THE FUEL PUMP CONTROL MODULE - RECALL 20AE. AT ANY GIVEN TIME WHY DRIVING MY CAR WILL COMPLETELY SHUT OFF IN TRAFFIC DAILY/CONSISTENTLY. NOTICES WERE SENT OUT TO US IN OCTOBER ABOUT RECALL BUT STILL SAYS NO REPAIR INFORMATION AVAILABLE AT THIS TIME. DEALER HAS YET TO RESOLVE ISSUE. UNDER MY RIGHTS IT'S UNFAIR AND I SHOULD HAVE TO PAY FOR THIS TO BE FIXED IN WHICH THERE IS A PENDING RECALL. THIS IS A VERY URGENT MATTER WHICH SHOULD NOT BE STALLED OFF NOR DELAYED ANY LONGER. CAN SOMEONE PLEASE ASSIST ME IMMEDIATELY WITH GETTING THE PROPER REPAIRS AND MY VEHICLE BEING FIXED. THANKS, [XXX]- VOLKSWAGEN OWNER INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).'*JB

I HAVE REPLACE TWO SET OF TIRES ON MY 2013 VOLKSWAGEN CC. I TWICE BY TWO DIFFERENT VEHICLE MAINTENANCE COPIES THAT BOTH SET OF TIRES SHOWED CUPPING WEAR. THIS IS DUE TO VEHICLE SUSPENSION, SHOCKS, STRUTS. CURRENTLY THERE A LARGE NUMBER OF CUSTOMERS WHO PURCHASE THE VOLKSWAGEN CC MODEL COMPLAINING OF THE SAME PROBLEM. THERE WAS ALSO AN APPARENT LAWSUIT FILE (CASE 1:17-CV-23033-RNS), AGAINST VOLKSWAGEN OF AMERICA REGARDING THE SAME ISSUE MANY CUSTOMERS ARE HAVING. I FILED A COMPLAINT WITH VOLKSWAGEN OF AMERICA REGARDING MY PROBLEM, STATING THAT IN THE PASS COUPLE OF YEARS I HAD TO REPLACE TWO SET OF TIRES FOR THIS REASON. TIRE CUPPING CAN BE VERY DANGEROUS DUE TO UNEVEN TIRE WARE, NOT TO MENTION THE SUSPENSION BEING THE MAIN PROBLEM OF THE VEHICLE. IMPROPER SUSPENSION COULD LEAD TO DANGEROUS BREAKING ISSUES. AFTER READING THE MANY REVIEWS FROM CUSTOMERS COMPLAINING ABOUT THE SAME ISSUE, AND REPORTING THIS ISSUE TO VOLKSWAGEN TO NO AVAIL SINCE 2010. I'M ASKING NNTSA TO PLEASE INVESTIGATE THIS DANGEROUS ISSUE THAT VOLKSWAGEN IS NOT ADMITTING TO. I HAVE INCLUDED THE COURT DOCUMENT THAT WAS FILED IN AUGUST OF 2017.

NOW MY TRUCK OPENS WHEN I START THE CAR AND WILL NOT LOCK UNLESS THE ENGINE IS OFF. READ ISSUES ON WIRING HARNESS. CALLED THE DEALER AND GOT NO SENSE OF KNOWLEDGE ON THE ISSUE. SERVICE DEPARTMENT TRANSFERRED ME TO PARTS. I WAS TOLD THE HARNESS IS $121 AND MUST BE ORDERED. I INFORMED THEM I WANTED THE DEALER TO MAKE REPAIR SO PARTS TRANSFERRED ME BACK TO SERVICE WHERE I GOT VOICE MAIL. NO REPLY RECEIVED FROM MESSAGE LEFT WITH SERVICE. THIS MUST BE A DESIGN FLAW, IT SHOULD BE SIMPLE TO WRAP THE WIRES IN A PLASTIC SHIELD.

TAKATA RECALL I HAVE BOUGHT A PRE-OWNED 2013 VW CC FROM A DEALERSHIP EARLIER THIS YEAR (FEB/MARCH 2017). I WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF ANY OPEN RECALLS OR THAT THERE MIGHT BE ONE. SINCE FINDING OUT ABOUT THE RECALL, I HAVE BEEN TRYING TO SET UP AN APPOINTMENT WITH VW DEALERS AROUND ME, BUT WAS TOLD THAT THERE ARE NO FIXES AVAILABLE AND THAT ALL I CAN DO IS WAIT FOR THE FIX TO BE IMPLEMENTED. I AM NOT SURE WHAT TO DO AT THIS POINT. I HAVE CONSISTENT 1+ HOUR DRIVES AND I AM NOT COMFORTABLE WITH THE KNOWLEDGE THAT THERE IS AN ACTIVE RECALL FOR A SERIOUS ISSUE FOR THE VEHICLE I RELY ON DAILY. ADDITIONALLY, I AM NOT ABLE TO TRADE IN THE CAR DUE TO THE RECALL, UNLESS I ACCEPT UNREASONABLY LOW OFFERS.
