NHTSA Complaint #10501040 — 2010 VOLKSWAGEN JETTA

WHILE DRIVING MY JETTA (DIESEL), THE ENGINE HAS STALLED ON MULTIPLE OCCASIONS. THE FIRST TIME IT HAD STALLED, MY JETTA WAS ONLY 1 MONTH OLD AND I TOOK IT BACK TO THE DEALER. THE DEALER FOUND NOTHING WRONG AND STATED THAT HE HAD NEVER HEARD OF THIS ISSUE OCCURRING. THE JETTA STALLED AGAIN OVER THE SUBSEQUENT 12 MONTHS OF OWNING IT AND I ONCE AGAIN TOOK IT TO LEE VOLKSWAGEN DEALERSHIP IN FORT WALTON BEACH. THE MAINTENANCE MANAGER STATED NOTHING WRONG. THE JETTA STALLED A 3RD TIME JUST RECENTLY WHILE I WAS MAKING A RIGHT HAND TURN. I HAD CHILDREN IN THE CAR AND I WAS VERY CONCERNED WITH THEIR SAFETY. IN ADDITION TO THE STALLING ISSUE, MY JETTA (OVER THE FIRST 2 YEARS OF OWNING THE CAR) HAS HAD A NEW BATTERY, NEW COMPRESSOR AND NEW INTERIOR LIGHTING MECHANISM INSTALLED. I AM VERY DISGRUNTLED WITH THE REPEATED SAFETY ISSUES ON THIS VEHICLE. THE STALLING MAKES ME UNCERTAIN OF MY SAFETY OR MY CHILDREN'S SAFETY WHILE DRIVING THIS VEHICLE. IT SHOULD BE RECALLED AND MONEY REFUNDED TO THE INDIVIDUALS WHO HAVE PURCHASED THIS MODEL. *TR
