Consumer Description

THE CAR LOOSES POWER/ ACCELERATION WHILE IM DRIVING, THE PRNDS LIGHT AND OTHERS START GOING ON AND FLASHING ON DASH. ITS IN THE DEALERSHIP AS OF MARCH 12, 2012 AND THEY ARE CHARGING ME FOR CHANGING THE METATRONIC UNIT IN THE TRANSMISSION. VW HAD A RECALL DONE ON THE 2008-2010 VW'S WITH THE DSG TRANSMISSIONS BUT NOT THE EARLIER ONES LIKE MINE 2006. I AM EXPERIENCING THE SAME THING AS THE OTHERS HAVE AND AM WONDERING WHY IS MY CAR/ YEAR IS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL. I HAVE THE SAME BAD TRANSMISSION IN MY CAR THAT THEY PRODUCED IN THE LATER YEARS. I NEED TO GET MY CAR FIXED, THIS IS A BIG SAFETY ISSUE TO ME AND MY FAMILY. *KB
