Consumer Description

WE HAVE 2010 VW JETTA TDI AND WE HAVE THE STALLING PROBLEMS. IT STARTED ABOUT 3 MONTHS AFTER WE BOUGHT THE VEHICLE. IN CA HIGHWAY TRAFFIC I HAD THE CAR STALL ON ME 15 TIMES, I WAS WRECK BY THE TIME I WAS ABLE TO EXIT THE HIGHWAY. I REFUSE TO DRIVE THE CAR ANYMORE. IT HAS BEEN TO THE DEALERSHIP NOW 6 TIMES TO FIX THE PROBLEM AND THEY KEEP GIVING US ALL THESE STUPID REASONS AND THEN TELL US THEY CAN'T DUPLICATE THE STALLING PROBLEM SO THEY CAN'T FIX IT. I JUST WANT THE PROBLEM FIXED AND I AM TRIED OF GETTING THE RUN AROUND WITH VOLKSWAGEN ON THIS. OBVIOUSLY THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH THESE CARS. WE TAKE IT THE DEALER IT RUNS GREAT FOR ABOUT 2 DAYS AND THEN THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON AND THEN 4 HOURS LATER THE GLOW PLUG LIGHT COMES ON AND BACK TO THE DEALER WE GO WITH NOTHING IN THE END. THEY KEEP TELLING US IT IS ELECTRICAL NOTHING TO DO WITH THE FUEL PROBLEM. IT IS EXTREMELY FRUSTRATING THAT VOLKSWAGEN WON'T DO ANYTHING ABOUT THIS PROBLEM. *TR
