Consumer Description

WHEN I GOT INTO MY 2014 TIGUAN THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WAS ON. SINCE THE CAR IS ONLY 5 MONTHS OLD I DIDN'T GIVE IT MUCH THOUGHT AND FIGURED IT WAS SOMETHING SIMPLE. ABOUT 10 MINUTES INTO MY DRIVE WHILE I WAS SLOWING FOR A RED LIGHT THE CAR COMPLETELY TURNED OFF. I RESTARTED IT AND IT WAS FINE THE REST OF THE DRIVE. I BROUGHT IT TO THE DEALERSHIP THE NEXT DAY AND WAS GIVEN A LOANER. I WAS TOLD THEY ARE GOING TO REPLACE THE ENGINE HARNESS. I HAVEN'T GOTTEN IT BACK YET SO NOT SURE IF THAT FIXED THE ISSUE. *TR
