Consumer Description

DT: THE CONSUMER STATES THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT IS ON. THE CONSUMER TOOK THE VEHICLE TO A SERVICE DEALER AND THEY TOLD HIM THE IGNITION COIL WAS BAD. THEY WANTED TO REPLACE THE IGNITION COIL AT A COST OF OVER $700.00; PARTS ONLY. THE CONSUMER HAS VISITED A WEBSITE AND FOUND A RECALL ON A LATER MODEL; 2001 VW JETTA. HIS CAR IS DOING THE SAME THING AS LISTED ON THIS RECALL. HE HAS TALKED TO VW AND THEY SAID THEY COULD NOT HELP HIM. HE NOTICED PROBLEMS ABOUT 3 WEEKS AGO. THE DEALER TOLD HIM IT HAD A 100,000 10 YEAR WARRANTY, BUT THEY WILL NOT FIX IT UNDER THE WARRANTY. 8JB
