NHTSA Complaint #11084460 — 2014 VOLKSWAGEN JETTA

THE SERVICE LIGHT ON MY VEHICLE CAME ON 4-5-18 WHEN I ARRIVED HOME. I TURNED OFF MY CAR AND TURNED IT BACK ON AS THE SERVICE LIGHT WAS NO LONGER ON. ON FRIDAY APRIL 6, 2018 I WENT TO THE STORE AND CAME BACK HOME AS THE VEHICLE WAS OPERATING PROPERLY AND PARKED ON MY DRIVEWAY. APPROXIMATELY ONE HOUR LATER I WENT TO RETURN SOME ITEMS AS THE VEHICLE WILL NOT CRANK OVER. MY VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO A NEAR BY VW DEALERSHIP AND FOUR DAYS LATER I WAS INFORMED THAT THE TIMING CHAIN JUMPED AND MAY HAVE CAUSED DAMAGE TO MY MOTOR. I WAS INFORMED THAT IT MAY COST ANYWHERE FROM $2,000.00 TO $10,000.00. I WAS INFORM THAT A NEW MOTOR WILL COST $10,000.00. WHILE VIEWING THE INTERNET I NOTICED MULTIPLE COMPLAINTS, ISSUES AND LAW SUITS PERTAINING TO THIS SIMILAR ISSUE. WHY IS THIS NOT A RE-CALL WITH MULTIPLE COMPLAINANTS?
