Consumer Description

AS I WAS DRIVING 65MPH ON THE HIGHWAY MY CAR COMPLETELY SHUT DOWN. I HAD NO LIGHTS, NO GAS, NO ANYTHING. I WAS ABLE TO PULL OFF TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. AFTER ABOUT 20 MINUTES, THE CAR STARTED BACK UP, BUT I ONLY MADE IT ABOUT 1.5 MILES BEFORE IT DID IT AGAIN. VW DEALERSHIP REPLACED MY ENTIRE COMPUTER MODULE (J519) AND THEN LET ME LEAVE THE LOT. I CONTINUED TO HAVE TROUBLE STARTING THE CAR. THE DEALERSHIP REPLACED THE RELAY FOR THE STARTER BECAUSE IT WAS OVERHEATING. I AM NOW (OCT 2012) HAVING ISSUES WITH THE UNLOCKING OF MY DRIVER SIDE DOOR. *TR
