Consumer Description
WHILE DRIVING AT 40 MPH AND ATTEMPTING TO MAKE A LEFT TURN, THE VEHICLE LOST POWER WITH THE CHECK ENGINE WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED. I PLACED THE VEHICLE IN PARK FOR 30 SECONDS AND ATTEMPTED TO RESTART THE VEHICLE, IT TURNED ON BUT WOULD NOT GO INTO GEAR. I THEN HAD IT TOWED TO THE DEALER (MISSION BAY VOLKSWAGEN ' (ADDRESS 2205 MORENA BLVD, SAN DIEGO, CA 92110) TO BE DIAGNOSED. I WAS INFORMED THAT THERE WAS A CRACK IN THE TRANSMISSION WHICH CAUSED OIL TO LEAK INTO THE ELECTRICAL GEARBOX CAUSING IT TO FAIL. I'M THE SECOND OWNER AND IT HAS 47,000 ORIGINAL MILES ON IT.
