Consumer Description

MYSELF AND THREE OTHER PASSENGERS WERE NEARLY HURT ON THE HIGHWAY WHEN MY VW STARTED ACTING UP. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND THEN THE POWER DWINDLE. IT WAS VERY SCARY! TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER AND IT WAS FOUND TO HAVE A DEFECTIVE IGNITION COIL. I CALLED VW AND INFORMED THEM OF THIS AND THEY SAID THEY WOULD REVIEW IT BUT COULDN'T GUARANTEE THAT THEY WOULD COVER THE COST. *NLM
