NHTSA Complaint #10668247 — 2009 VOLKSWAGEN JETTA

I AM "GUESSING AT SOME OF THE INFORMATION ABOVE SINCE IT WAS THE FIRST TIME IT HAPPENED AND I DIDN'T GIVE IT MUCH THOUGHT THEN. AT THAT TIME, I WAS MAKING A RIGHT-HAND TURN TO ANOTHER STREET AND THE ENGINE STALLED. THERE WAS NO WARNING LIGHT OR SIGNAL. I PULLED OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD, RESTARTED THE ENGINE AND IT WORKED FINE. THIS OCCURRED SOMETIME IN MID TO LATE SEPTEMBER. YESTERDAY (12/24/2014) I WAS AT A STOPLIGHT AND THIS HAPPENED AGAIN -- THE ENGINE STALLED WHILE I WAS ALREADY STOPPED WHILE WAITING FOR THE LIGHT TO CHANGE FROM RED TO GREEN. AGAIN, THERE WAS NO WARNING LIGHT OR SIGNAL. IT WAS REMNISCENT OF WHEN I DROVE A STANDARD TRANSMISSION VEHICLE AND INAPPROPRIATELY TOOK MY FOOT OFF THE CLUTCH. I WAS ABLE TO RE-START AND ENGINE RAN FINE. I AM LEERY OF DRIVING THE CAR AGAIN, HOWEVER, FOR FEAR THAT THIS WILL HAPPEN AGAIN. I PLAN TO TAKE TO MY MECHANIC ASAP. READING THE DESCRIPTIONS OTHERS HAVE HAD WITH THIS ISSUE ARE VERY SIMILAR TO MINE. I HAVE KEPT UP WITH MAINTENANCE AND CARE OF THE VEHICLE AND IT HAS LESS THAN 25K MILES ON IT. *TR
