| 2005 | ELECTRICAL SYSTEM | BRAKE LIGHTS REMAINED ON WITHOUT BRAKE PEDAL PRESSURE, AND REMAINED ON AFTER TURNING OFF IGNITION. I INVESTIGATED PRIOR RECALLS AND SAW: REPORT RECEIPT DATE: FEB 20, 2007 NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 07V063000 COMPONENT(S): EXTERIOR LIGHTING I WENT TO LOCAL VW FOR RECALL REPAIR AND WAS TOLD THAT BRAKE LIGHT REPAIR WAS ALREADY PERFORMED IN 2004, SO THIS REPAIR WAS NO LONGER COVERED. ( I AM SECOND OWNER, SO COULD NOT CONFIRM.) A 2004 REPAIR ON A 2005 MODEL YEAR CAR FOR A RECALL ISSUED IN 2007? THE BRAKE SWITCH REPLACEMENT COST $176. IS THIS NOT THE SAME RECALL FAILURE AGAIN? I HAVE HAD MANY CARS AND HAVE NEVER HAD A SINGLE BRAKE LIGHT SWITCH FAIL, EXCEPT FOR THIS VW, WHICH AS OF TODAY HAS HAD THREE! (ORIGINAL, 2004 REPLACEMENT AND NOW 2013 REPLACEMENT.) IS THE RECALL STILL IN EFFECT? SHOULD I HAVE TO PAY FOR AN OBVIOUSLY DEFECTIVE PART REPLACEMENT? *TR |
| 2002 | FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE | I OWN A 2002 VOLKSWAGEN PASSAT. IT HAS STALLED WHILE DRIVING AND UNABLE TO START RIGHT AWAY. IT SOMETIMES FAILS TO START WHEN I GET IN, THEN STARTS AGAIN LATER. THE FUEL PUMP/FUEL LINE FAILURE HAS LEFT ME STRANDED IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS AND I HAVE ALSO BEEN STRANDED, WHILE WAITING FOR MY CAR TO START AGAIN. I BELIEVE THERE IS A RECALL FOR THIS PROBLEM AND I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW WHAT I CAN DO ABOUT IT IN ORDER TO REMEDY THIS ISSUE W/ MY 2002 PASSAT. *TR |
