Consumer Description
MY CAR IS 2 WEEKS OLD WITH 400 MILES ON THE CAR. SINCE THE ODOMETER HAD APROX 100 MILES ON IT THE CAR HAS BEEN HAVING A ISSUE WITH STALLING WHEN COMING TO A STOP. IN THE PAST 2 WEEKS IT HAS STALLED APROX 26 TIMES WHEN COMING TO A STOP. I HAVE BROUGHT THE CAR BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP FOR THIS ISSUE BECAUSE THE CAR STALLED 3 TIMES IN A 15 MILE DRIVE ON THE FREEWAY IN BUMPER TO BUMPER TRAFFIC. THE CAR IS VERY UNPREDICTABLE AS TO WHEN IT WILL DECIDE TO STALL BUT BECOMES A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION WHEN COMMUTING ON THE FREEWAY AND IT DECIDES TO STALL. THE CAR IS A MANUAL TRANSMISSION AND DOES NOT HAVE THE AUTO START STOP FUNCTION BUT STALLS OUT WHEN COMING TO A STOP. I HAVE INFORMED THE DEALERSHIP THAT THIS CAR IS VERY DANGEROUS TO HAVE MY FAMILY OR ANYONE RIDE IN AS YOU DO NOT KNOW IF IT WILL FAIL AND PUT YOU AT RISK OF BEING HIT BY ANOTHER VEHICLE. THIS IS A BRAND NEW CAR AND SHOULD NOT HAVE STALLING OR ENGINE FAILURES AT ANY POINT LET ALONE HAVING OVER 20 IN A 2 WEEK PERIOD. THE CAR IS AT VW BEING EVALUATED BUT I DO NOT FEEL COMFORTABLE OR SAFE KNOWING THIS SITUATION IS HAPPENING.
