Consumer Description

I WAS DRIVING MY 2009 ROUTAN THIS MORNING (8/6/18) IN A ROUND-A-BOUT WHEN OUT OF BLU MY STEERING AND BRAKES COMPLETELY LOCKED UP AND MY ABS LIGHT CAME ON. I HAD TRAFFIC BEHIND ME. I ALMOST WENT OVER THE CURB AND CAUSED AN ACCIDENT DUE TO THIS HAPPENING. I PRAISE GOD THAT I AND EVERYONE AROUND WAS SAFE. MY VEHICLE HAS ALREADY HAD THE IGNITION SSSWITCH REPLACED TWICE. I HAD IT CHECKED FOR CODES AND NOTHING CAME UP. I NOTICED A HUGE AMOUNT OF COMPLAINTS REGARRDING THIS. WHAT IS IT GOING TO TAKE TO GET THIS FIXED? THERE ARE LIVES ON THE LINE. WHEN A VEHICLE SHUTS DOWN ON THE HIGHWAY THAT WILL CAUSE A MAJOR ACCIDENT. IS VOLKSWAGEN AND NHTSA WILLING TO LIVE WITH THAT KNOWING THAT THIS HAS BEEN A MAJOR ISSUE WITH THIS VEHICLE FOR SOME TIME? HOW MANY INJURIES OR DEATHS DO YOU NEED TO PROVE TO YOU THAT THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE?
