Consumer Description
WHILE DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE AT 70 MPH IN THE MIDDLE LANE OF THREE LANES AT APPROXIMATELY 10:00 PM THROUGH LIGHT RAIN THE GLOW PLUG INDICATOR ON THE DASH BEGAN TO FLASH. THEN THE ENGINE LOST POWER. I PULLED TO THE EMERGENCY LANE WHERE THE CAR LOST ALL ENGINE POWER AND WOULD NOT RESTART. THIS ALL OCCURRED WITHIN 20-25 SECONDS AND WE WERE LUCKY TO BE ABLE TO MAKE IT TO EMERGENCY LANE. WE HAVE SINCE HAD THE VEHICLE TOWED TO A VW DEALER WHERE THEY REPLACED THE ENTIRE FUEL SYSTEM WHICH WAS UNDER WARRANTY. AFTER RESEARCHING THIS HIGH PRESSURE FUEL PUMP PROBLEM MOST FELLOW VW OWNER RECOMMENDED THAT I FILE A COMPLAINT. *TR
