Consumer Description
HERE'S ANOTHER ABS MODULE FAILURE THANKS TO VW'S HORRIBLE DESIGN. THE FAILURE IS CAUSING THE ENTIRE DASH CLUSTER TO GO HAYWIRE. CAR BEEPS ALL THE TIME BECAUSE IT THINKS THE EMERGENCY BRAKE IS ON. SPEEDOMETER DOESN'T WORK! FUEL GAUGE JUMPS UP WHEN ENGAGING BRAKES. ABS, TRACTION, EPC, CEL LIGHTS CONSTANTLY ON, AND SOMETIMES IT GOES INTO LIMP MODE MAKING IT DANGEROUS TO DRIVE ON THE HIGHWAY. VW CHARGES $2,000 FOR THE PART EXCL LABOR WHICH IS 20% OF THE PRICE OF THE CAR NEW. THIS SHOULD NOT HAPPEN WITH A SEVEN YEAR OLD CAR AT ONLY 100K MILES
