2014 VOLKSWAGEN JETTA Power Train Problems

MY VEHICLE STARTED FLASHING THE ENGINE LIGHT. THEN ITS STARTED STALLING. I TURNED IT OFF ,WAITED A COUPLE MINUTES AND IT WAS FINE TO DRIVE BUT STILL HAD THE ENGINE LIGHT ON. NOTHING HAPPENED UNTIL THE NEXT DAY, THE ENGINE LIGHT WASNT ON ANYMORE. AS I WAS DRIVING AT 70 MPH IT STARTED STALLING AGAIN. TOOK IT TO A SHOP AND THEY TOLD ME I HAD A COUPLE OF CODES ON. IT WAS CLEARED JUST TO MAKE SURE IT WASNT SOMETHING ELSE. AFTER ABOUT 100 MILES OF DRIVING THE ENGINE LIGHT TURNED ON AGAIN AND THE CAR STARTED STALLING AGAIN AT AROUND 65MPH. I CHANGED THE SPARK PLUGS AND THE SPARK PLUG WIRES. RUNS GREAT UNTIL ANOTHER 100MILES OF DRIVING, IT STARTED STALLING AT AROUND 75MPH. EVERYTIME THE LIGHT COMES ON, I TURN THE CAR OFF WAIT A COUPLE MINUTES AND TURN IT BACK ON WITH OUT ANY SIGNS OF...

VOLKSWAGEN 38B9/9V RECALL MY VOLKSWAGEN JETTA HAS BEEN DIAGNOSED WITH THE SAME ISSSUE THAT THE CAR HAS BEEN RECALLED FOR. I'VE TAKEN IT TO VW DEALERSHIP BUT THEY SAID MY CAR DOES NOT QUALIFY FOR THE RECALL. AFTER RESEARCHING I'VE FOUND THAT THE RECALL AFFECTS 2014 JETTAS WITH A 1.8T ENGINE, WITH THE QUALIFYING MONTH AND YEAR OF MANUFACTURE DATE (APRIL, 2014). MY CAR HAS A MANUFACTURE DATE OF APRIL 2014, ALTHOUGH MY SPECIFIC VIN NUMBER WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL. I AM WONDERING WHY IT WASN'T LISTED, AS THE DATES MATCH UP AND THE ISSUE IS EXACTLY THE SAME. THIS IS CAUSING A MAJOR ISSUE IN MY CAR AND IS CAUSING A LEAK THAT CAN RESULT IN AN ENGINE FIRE, WHICH IS AN OBVIOUS SAFETY ISSUE. MY CAR IS HAVING SEVERE TRANSMISSION PROBLEMS NOW AND HAS COMPLETELY STOPPED NUMEROUS TIMES AT RED LIGHTS, WITHOUT ALLOWING ME TO EVEN...

LEAKING TRANSMISSION FLUID AND RUNNING ROUGH

TRANSMISSION PROBLEMS? ONCE MY CAR GOT UP TO 80,000 MILES WHEN IN TRAFFIC I TAKE MY FOOT OFF THE ACCELERATOR WHILE IN DRIVE AND THEN ACCELERATE SOMETIMES THERE'S A JERKING AS IF THE CAR DOESN'T KNOW WHAT GEAR TO BE IN. NORMALLY HAPPENS AT ANY SPEED TYPICALLY WHILE DRIVING SLOWING DOWN AND ACCELERATING. DATE WHEN IT STARTED I REALLY STARTED NOTICING IT IN JANUARY 2019. I ALSO NOTICED EXCESSIVE OIL CONSUMPTION AND WHEN OIL GETS LOW ON DIPSTICK NO LOW OIL LIGHT ON DASH. OIL GETS LOWER THAN DIPSTICK. DIPSTICK BECOMES DRY BUT NO SOUND DIFFERENCE IN ENGINE AND STILL RUNS NORMALLY.

I HAVE A FUEL LEAK FROM INJECTOR SEAL WHICH IS CAUSING IT TO SMELL LIKE STRONG GAS IN MY CAR EVERY TIME I USE MY HEAT.

MY JETTA HAS BEEN LEAKING TRANSMISSION FLUID. I WAS SEARCHING TO SEE WHAT GEAR OIL IS NEEDED FOR MY CAR AS I WOULD LIKE TO FILL IT BACK UP TO THE APPROPRIATE LEVEL AND A RECALL SHOWED UP ABOUT AN O-RING BETWEEN THE TRANSMISSION AND THE OIL COOLER. MY CAR WAS NOT LISTED IN THIS RECALL, HOWEVER MY CAR IS STILL LEAKING TRANSMISSION FLUID AT THIS TIME. ON ANOTHER SUBJECT MY FUEL PUMP SEEMS TO RUN FOR AWHILE AFTER I SHUT THE CAR OFF. I TOOK IT TO A VW DEALERSHIP AND THEY STATED IT WAS FINE. STILL A BIT OF A WORRY AS SOMETIMES IT RUNS FOR UP TO 3 MINUTES AFTER.

I PURCHASED MY VEHICLE BRAND NEW IN JUNE 2014 AND I'VE KEPT UP WITH ALL ROUTINE MAINTENANCE TO DATE. I DRIVE AN AVERAGE 30 MILES PER DAY DURING THE WORK WEEK AND TRAVEL UP TO 140 MILES EVERY TWO WEEKS OR SO FOR CUSTODIAL EXCHANGES. THIS PAST WEEKEND (AUGUST 13, 2016), WHILE AT A ROUTINE PIT STOP FOR GAS MY VEHICLE'S TRANSMISSION GAVE OUT. I HAD PARKED AT THE GAS STATION RIGHT OFF THE HIGHWAY. WHEN I WENT TO RESTART MY VEHICLE IT WOULDN'T MOVE. THE VEHICLE WOULD START AND SHIFT INTO DRIVE, BUT THE WHEELS RESPONDED AS IF IT WERE IN NEUTRAL. THERE WAS A RECALL FOR THIS ISSUE BACK IN 2013 WHEN THE VW JETTA WENT ON THE MARKET, BUT THE RECALL DID NOT INVOLVE MY VIN. THE RECALL WAS NOT DISCLOSED TO ME AT THE TIME I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE, NOR WAS I EVER NOTIFIED OF IT...

ON JULY 5, 2015, THE CLUTCH FAILED. THE CLUTCH WAS DEPRESSED TO DOWNSHIFT THE CAR AS WE WERE APPROACHING A TURNPIKE OFF RAMP. THE GEAR SELECTOR WAS MOVED OUT OF TOP GEAR AND INTO NEUTRAL; THE CLUTCH WOULD NOT RETURN, AND THE GEAR SELECTOR WOULD NOT MOVE OUT OF NEUTRAL. THE CAR HAD TO BE MANEUVERED THROUGH TRAFFIC FROM THE FAR LEFT LANE TO THE RIGHTS-SIDE SHOULDER, IN NEUTRAL. THIS PUT MY FAMILY AND EVERYONE AROUND US AT RISK OF SERIOUS INJURY. THERE WAS NO DEGRADATION OF CLUTCH SYSTEM PERFORMANCE. THIS CLUTCH FAILURE CAME SUDDENLY AND WITHOUT WARNING. I HAVE READ COMMENTS FROM OTHERS ONLINE WHO HAVE EXPERIENCED SIMILAR ISSUES. SEVERAL MONTHS AGO, THE BRAKE BOOSTER NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE DEALERSHIP SERVICE MANAGER SUGGESTED THAT THE CLUTCH ISSUE COULD BE RELATED TO THE BRAKE BOOSTER ISSUE. MY WIFE AND I HAVE DRIVEN MANUAL TRANSMISSION CARS FOR YEARS. THIS IS...

I HAVE A 2014 GLI AUTOBAHN WITH THE PADDLE SHIFTERS AND THE SPORTS MODE OPTION. TODAY I ENGAGED THE SPORTS MODE OPTION AND THE VEHICLE'S RPM WERE ALMOST REDLINING BUT IT WILL TAKE AWHILE TO FEEL THE SHIFTING ON THE TRANS. I AM WORRIED THAT THIS MAY BE A PROBLEM TO THE TRANS ON THIS VEHICLE. THE SECOND PROBLEM THAT I AM HAVING I BELIEVE IS THE SUSPENSION DUE TO THE SMOOTHNESS OF THE VEHICLE IS NO LONGER THEIR. I HAVE NOT TAKEN THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALERSHIP YET BUT WILL SOON. PLEASE ADVISE IF ANY OTHERS HAVE COMPLAINED ABOUT THE SAME ISSUES THAT I AM HAVING. THANKS. *TR

DSG GEARBOX CHANGED INTO A LOW GEAR CAUSING THE DIESEL ENGINE RPM TO INCREASE TO 4500RPM. THE RESULTANT ENGINE BRAKING CAUSED ME TO SLOW DOWN. I HAD TO ABANDON OVERTAKING AND CROSS TWO LANES OF TRAFFIC TO GET TO THE SHOULDER TO AVOID IMPEDIING FASTER MOVING TRAFFIC.

ON THURSDAY, MAY 29TH, I WAS DRIVING MY 2014 VW JETTA HYBRID SEL PREMIUM (~165 MILES ON ODOMETER) WHEN THE EPC AND BATTERY LIGHT CAME ON THE DASH. AT THE SAME TIME, THE GAS ENGINE SHUT OFF.

THE DEALERSHIP PUT APPROXIMATELY 200 MILES ON THE NEW VEHICLE TO DIAGNOSE IT. ABOUT AN HOUR AFTER PICKING UP THE VEHICLE (~393 MILES ON ODOMETER), THE VEHICLE DID THE EXACT SAME THING, EXCEPT THIS TIME I WAS IN A PARKING LOT.
