Consumer Description

AIR BAG SYSTEM FAILURE - LIGHT ILLUMINATED, REPLACED CONTROL MODULE IN DASHBOARD, DID NOT CORRECT THE ERROR. VW DEALER AND COMPANY REFUSE TO DISCOUNT REPAIRS EVEN AFTER BEING PROVIDED 100'S OF DOCUMENTS PROVING THE SAME ISSUE ON OTHER SIMILAR CARS. THIS FAILURE IS SIMILAR TO NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER 08V178000, BUT MY VIN IS NOT INCLUDED. *TR
