Consumer Description

I WAS DRIVING HOME WITH MY 5 YEAR OLD DAUGHTER IN THE BACK SEAT. AS I APPROACHED A BLIND CURVE ON HWY 133 IN BRUNSWICK COUNTY NC, MY CAR SHUT OFF AND THE DIESEL FUEL LIGHT CAME ON. I WAS ALMOST HIT BY TWO VEHICLES BEHIND ME AT THE TIME BECAUSE I REDUCED SPEED AND THEY COULD SEE WELL INSIDE THE CURVE. I HAD IT TOWED TO THE MECHANIC AND HE INDICATED THAT IT LOOKED LIKE A HIGH PRESSURE FUEL PUMP FAILURE. HE SAID THIS WAS AN ONGOING PROBLEM WITH VOLKSWAGEN. IT COULD HAVE COST ME MY LIFE.. 2010, JETTA TDI. *TR
