Consumer Description

For the Volkswagen Jetta Hybrid 2013-2015 units, a safety recall 34J6 was issued to service transmission issues that caused powertrain failure. The problem is caused by hairline fractures in the accumulator that cause insufficient transmission oil pressure (my vehicle is showing codes that this is the case). Recently, my 2014 VW Jetta Hybrid has been experiencing issues as described by the 34J6 recall. My car would lose powertrain capabilities at stoplights or if i was slowing down. It would also occasionally stop and start when it was supposed to be idling. The dealership has confirmed that my accumulator is the issue,however, my VIN number is allegedly not affected by this recall. Can an investigation be put forth to determine if this recall can be extended to be more inclusive of VIN batches that it is affecting?
