NHTSA Complaint #10627907 — 2009 VOLKSWAGEN JETTA

MY VW JETTA TDI 2009 STALLED IN TRAFFIC IN DEC. 2010, IT WAS ONLY A YEAR OLD WITH 23,000 MILES. THE DEALER SAID I MUST HAVE PUT REG. GAS AND NOT DIESEL. I SAID I HAD RECEIPTS AND HE COULD TEST IT TO PROVE I HADN'T. THE DAMAGE WAS $8,000 FOR A NEW FUEL SYSTEM INCLUDING TANK. IT WAS CALLED A HIGH PRESSURE FUEL PUMP MALFUNCTION WITH FUEL SYSTEM CONTAMINATION. HE SAID THERE WAS METAL SHARDS THAT DISINTEGRATED THE ENTIRE FUEL SYSTEM. IT WAS COVERED UNDER WARRANTY. NOW AUGUST 7, 2014, THE EXACT SAME THING OCCURRED AND IT IS NOT UNDER WARRANTY BUT THE DEALER WILL COVER IT AGAIN FOR FREE. CHECKING ON-LINE, I SEE THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM AND THERE NEEDS TO BE A RECALL OR WE SHOULD GET A NEW CAR. I ASKED DEALER IF HE COULD GUARANTEE IT WON'T HAPPEN AGAIN AND HE CAN'T! BUT HE SAYS VW WILL ALWAYS FIX IT FOR FREE IF IT HAPPENS AGAIN. WHAT IF IT HAPPENS AND SOMEONE DIES IN AN ACCIDENT WHEN IT STALLS ON THE FREEWAY? WILL THEY DO A RECALL ONCE SOMEONE DIES?!!!!! *TR
