NHTSA Complaint #11271261 — 2019 VOLKSWAGEN JETTA

2019 JETTA GLI WITH LESS THAN 500 MILES EQUIPPED WITH THE DSG (AUTOMATIC) TRANSMISSION - ENGINE STALLS OUT AS SOON AS THE SPEED OF THE VEHICLE REACHES 0MPH - WHETHER ON THE HIGHWAY (BUMPER TO BUMPER TRAFFIC), STOPPED AT RED LIGHTS, STOPPED AT STOP SIGNS, OR CHANGING GEAR TO REVERSE IN PARKING LOT OR STREET TO GET IN DRIVEWAY. THE STALLING HAPPENS REGARDLESS OF THE "AUTO STOP START" FEATURE BEING DISABLED OR ENABLED, AND HAPPENS APPROXIMATELY ONCE EVERY THREE OR MORE COMPLETE STOPS BUT USUALLY NOT FOR THE FIRST 3 WHEN THE CAR IS FIRST TURNED ON. THE CAR ALSO MAKES AN AUDIBLE GRINDING SOUND WHEN ENGINE STALLS. IN ALL INSTANCES ONCE THE CAR HAS STALLED IT REQUIRES A MANUAL RESTART BY PUTTING THE VEHICLE BACK IN PARK, AND PRESSING THE VEHICLE START BUTTON WITH BRAKE DEPRESSED. IN ADDITION TO THE ABOVE STALLING, THE CAR HAS ONCE TURNED OFF WHEN STARTED REMOTELY AND NO PASSENGERS INSIDE. I HAVE APPROACHED THE VEHICLE APPROXIMATELY 30 SECONDS AFTER REMOTE START WAS ENGAGED, OPENED THE TRUCK, LOADED A FEW ITEMS, AND CAR TURNED OFF. A CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. USING A VAG505 SCANNER I WAS ABLE TO FIND 01-ENGINE FAULT CODE 15080 AND 08-AUTO HVAC FAULT CODE 1048838. VIDEOS OF THE AFOREMENTIONED ISSUES HAVE BEEN UPLOADED TO YOUTUBE AND CAN BE MADE AVAILABLE VIA REQUEST.
