Consumer Description

IGNITION COIL FAILURE. THIS IS THE THIRD FAILURE OF THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM ON THIS AUTO. ON THE PREVIOUS TWO FAILURES, VW WOULD NOT REPLACE ALL FOUR COILS, BUT ONLY THOSE COILS THAT WERE THE CAUSE OF THE PROBLEM. AS A RESULT WORK TIME HAS BEEN LOST, AND IT HAS BEEN A GREAT INCONVENIENCE TO TAKE TIME OFF OF WORK, HAVE THE CAR TOWED, AND TRAVEL TO THE REPAIR FACILITY. REQUEST VW BE REQUIRED TO INITIATE A RECALL TO FIX ALL PROBLEMS. *NLM
