Consumer Description

WHILE AT THE DEALER FOR FUEL PUMP FAILURE THE CAR WAS FOUND TO HAVE ANOTHER SERIOUS ISSUE. THERE WAS A SEAL GOING IN TO THE COWLING THAT HAD LEAKED AND CAUSED A MAJOR AMOUNT OF WATER TO LEAK IN TO THE CABIN OF THE VEHICLE, RIGHT WHERE THE ELECTRICAL COMPONENTS AND FUSE PANEL ARE. THIS CAUSED MAJOR DAMAGE AND THE CAR TO STALL / NOT RUN DUE TO THE WATER DAMAGE. LUCKILY THIS WAS FOUND WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS NOT MOVING, OTHERWISE THE CAR WOULD HAVE STOPPED RUNNING DUE TO VOLKSWAGEN'S ERROR OF NOT HAVING A SEALED ACCESS PORT TO THE INTERIOR OF THE VEHICLE. *TR
