TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 VOLKSWAGEN GOLF SPORTSWAGEN. THE CONTACT RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 18V464000 (STEERING, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM). THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE MANUFACTURER EXCEEDED A REASONABLE AMOUNT OF TIME FOR THE RECALL REPAIR. NAPLETON VOLKSWAGEN OF SANFORD (4175 S ORLANDO DR, SANFORD, FL 32773, (855) 743-7423) WAS CONTACTED AND CONFIRMED THAT THE PARTS WERE NOT AVAILABLE FOR THE RECALL REMEDY.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 VOLKSWAGEN GOLF SPORTSWAGEN. WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS STOPPED WITH THE BRAKE PEDAL DEPRESSED, THE RPMS DECREASED TO ZERO. APPROXIMATELY 4 SECONDS AFTER RELEASING THE BRAKE PEDAL, THE VEHICLE FAILED TO RESPOND AND THEN SUDDENLY LUNGED FORWARD AND ACCELERATED. THE CONTACT INDICATED THAT THE FAILURE WAS INTERMITTENT. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO JIM ELLIS VOLKSWAGEN (5901 PEACH TREE INDUSTRIAL BLVD, CHAMPLEE, GA) TO BE DIAGNOSED, BUT THE FAILURE COULD NOT BE DUPLICATED.

CAR SHUDDERED AND LOST SPEED WHILE TURNING ON A CITY STREET.. EPC LIGHT CAME ON. DEALER RAN DIAGNOSTIC AND SAID THERE WAS A CYLINDER PROBLEM AND THEN SAID PROBLEM WAS RESOLVED WITH A SOFTWARE UPDATE. THIS IS A BRAND NEW CAR ONLY 5,000 MILES. I AM SKEPTICAL THIS WAS JUST A SOFTWARE ISSUE GIVEN ALL THE REPORTS I HAVE READ OF OTHER VW DRIVERS HAVING THIS SAME EPC AND SHUDDERING ISSUE AND THEY HAVE LOST ABILITY TO ACCELERATE AND SOMETIMES LOST ALL POWER AND BREAKING ABILITY ON THE HIGHWAY. I AM SCARED FOR MYSELF AND MY CHILD.
CONTINENTAL PROCONTACT TX TIRES ARE THE PROBLEM. WENT ROUND A LEFT-HAND BEND AT 55 MPH AND TIRES LOST AIR. MY TIRE INFLATION SYSTEM IN THE CAR IMMEDIATELY CAME ON WARNING ME THAT TIRES HAD LOST PRESSURE. STANDARD/RECOMMENDED TIRE SIZE ON VEHICLE.
