Consumer Description

VW JETTA SPORTSWAGEN TDI. SAME INCIDENT AS COMPLAINT 10508928 AND APPARENTLY MANY OTHERS. THE FUEL PUMP "EXPLODED" (DEALER'S WORD) SENDING METAL SHRAPNEL THROUGH THE WHOLE FUEL SYSTEM. GLOW PLUG LIGHT CAME ON FIRST. CAR DIED WHILE DRIVING ON HIGHWAY. VW FIXED FOR FREE, AND PRETENDED THAT THIS WAS GENEROUS, WHEN IN FACT IT APPEARS THERE SHOULD BE A RECALL? *TR
