| 2006 | ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING | OIL PUMP BOLT BACKED OUT/BROKE CAUSING ENGINE DAMAGE. CAR LOSS OIL PRESSURE FORTUNATELY WAS NEAR AN EXIT TO AVOID THE ENGINE COMPLETELY STOPPING IN THE MIDDLE OF THE HIGHWAY GETTING INVOLVED IN A POTENTIAL DANGEROUS WRECK. DEALER SAYS IT WILL COST $11,000.00 TO REPLACE ENGINE. VW KNOWS THIS IS AN ISSUE BUT WILL NOT TAKE ANY RESPONSIBILITY. THEY WOULD NOT DO ANYTHING SEEING I AM OUTSIDE THE WARRANTY AND STATED WOULD NOT DO A THING BECAUSE I AM THE SECOND OWNER. ONLY HAD THIS CAR FOR TWO YEARS AND BOUGHT IT AS A PRE-CERTIFIED OWNED USED VEHICLE FROM THE VW DEALERSHIP. I HAVE SEARCHED ON LINE AND MANY OTHER OWNERS HAVE HAD THIS ISSUE.

| 2010 | POWER TRAIN | BOUGHT 2010 PASSAT NEW ON 05/25/10. ON 05/26 WITH LESS THAN 100 MILES, THE TRANSMISSION SUDDENLY WOULD NOT GO PAST 1ST GEAR AFTER ACCELERATING FROM STOP SIGN. WAS CLOSE TO HOME SO DROVE AROUND THE BLOCK TRYING TO GET IT TO UPSHIFT. ATTEMPTED TO REVERSE AND WHEN GEAR SHIFTER WAS MOVED TRANSMISSION WOULD NOT MOVE FROM DRIVE. CALLED DEALER AND THEY SAID THEY WOULD TOW IN. NEXT DAY I DROVE TO WORK AND HAVE NOT HAD A SINGLE PROBLEM SINCE. IT DOES LEAP FORWARD WHEN FOOT REMOVED FROM BRAKE, BUT I DON'T KNOW THERE IS MUCH THAT CAN BE DONE ABOUT THAT. KEEP FOOT ON BRAKE. WE'LL SEE. *TR |
