What owners wrote

"takata recall!" recieved recall letter in jan. 2016. Everytime I call dealership im told parts are not in. My car already stopped running and I had to have it towed into a mechanic where he knew that the fuel injection issue was a recall. I had to pay him $100.00 for taking my car apart and telling me it was a familiar issue he had when working on another VW..and that I should call VW and ask if there was a recall. Of course, there was. I then had to pay for a 2nd tow from that shop to VW.

Reported at 104 miles, January 2016 CrashInjury

Fuel pump module and takata inflators while driving on the freeway on the way to work my car ended up losing power and completely shutting down while in motion. The sudden loss of power shut off all of my lights inside and out. As soon as this happens I begin to press on my brakes only to notice that my brakes felt like they were lacking pressure. The lack of pressure on the rotars made it very difficult to slow down and with there being no power also made it difficult to turn the wheel.
