VOLKSWAGEN JETTA 2012 car safety problem was reported on Nov 10, 2011.VOLKSWAGEN JETTA 2012, manufactured by VOLKSWAGEN OF AMERICA, INC had a problem with FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE . my wife was driving our 2012 jetta tdi and it went into limp mode on the highway, losing nearly all power. we took it to the dealer and the problem had gone away. it occurred again the next day and we took it in again. they ended up replacing the high pressure fuel pump. my fuel pump did not fail catastrophically as others have, but it still failed. this is a systemic issue with common rail vw diesels and is something that i feel should be investigated further and a recall should be issued. i was lucky that my particular pump did not fail catastrophically and just supplied low fuel pressure and that i'm still under warranty, but complete loss of power at highway speeds seems to be a safety concern and vw should definitely issue a recall for this part. *tr.Mileage was 6500 miles.

VOLKSWAGEN JETTA 2012 car safety problem was reported on July 27, 2013.VOLKSWAGEN JETTA 2012, manufactured by Volkswagen of America, Inc. had a problem with FUEL SYSTEM, DIESEL . around noon time this past saturday my son was returning from a neighborhood store and the car stalled at the roadside about 1/2 mile from home. he called and reported the cel and "coil" light blinking on the instrument panel. i was able to start the car, confirming the same lights were blinking and drove the rest of the way home. at home i called the vw service rep and made an appointment that same afternoon. we proceeded to take the car in a short while and it stalled again enroute - would not restart & had to call for a tow. after telling the vw service mgr what had happened he immediately called for a mechanic to bring some tool and proceeded to take the top of the fuel filter housing. as he suspected there were small filings of metal in the fuel filter housing. he then told me there was an issue with the some hpfp failures and they would be replacing it with one from another mfgr. he also said vw dealt with resolving this issue by replacing the entire fuel system. i am reporting this issue because i have read multiple instances on the internet of this happening and vw reporting that in many cases owners had contaminated the fuel system with gasoline. i fuel all the cars for our family and have never put gasoline in our jetta's fuel system. i have all our fuel receipts from this year, and up till a few months ago had all our 2012 receipts as well. my wife is the high-use driver of this vehicle. i think i'm very fortunate this didn't happen to her on the freeway during her commute to/from work. *tr.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 23350 miles.

VOLKSWAGEN JETTA 2012 car safety problem was reported on July 27, 2013.VOLKSWAGEN JETTA 2012, manufactured by Volkswagen of America, Inc. had a problem with FUEL SYSTEM, DIESEL . my wife and i were merging into traffic at highway speeds when the 2012 volkswagen jetta sportwagen tdi engine stalled. i was able to get the car off the road onto a grass embankment before a semi truck passed within inches of driver side. the car would not restart. we called vw roadside assistance and were towed to the nearest vw dealership. upon mechanic inspection, i was advised that the fuel system had failed, specifically the high pressure fuel pump. the repair required the entire fuel system to be replaced, as shards of broken metal and debris contaminated the fuel tank, pumps, lines, filters, etc. vw agreed to make the expensive repairs under warranty (estimate $6k) but not without advising me that they were not liable to make repairs under warranty due to "diesel fuel contamination". i was advised to purchase fuel from "reputable" diesel fuel stations without being asked where i bought gas (shell and gulf near my home). vw asked mechanic to pull 1 liter fuel sample for testing at vw. mechanic reports the sample pulled appeared to be a clean diesel fuel sample. he left the sample out overnight to settle and look for phase separation of water/fuel. he saw no separation in the morning. i have loved my diesel car, but vw has not yet satisfied me with their customer service. my safety and reliability concerns have been very much discounted, and i have been made to feel like this was my fault. *tr.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 11314 miles.

VOLKSWAGEN JETTA 2012 car safety problem was reported on Aug 07, 2013.VOLKSWAGEN JETTA 2012, manufactured by Volkswagen of America, Inc. had a problem with FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM . as i accelerate to merge onto the freeway, i suddenly realized that i didn't have any power to speak of, which was quite alarming. this had never happened before. i was able to gain enough speed to get on the freeway, but i instantly turned on my hazard lights realizing that i could not gain enough speed to keep up with the flow of traffic. shortly thereafter, my glow plug light came on, and i drove my car 1 mile to the nearest off ramp. when i came to a complete stop my engine light came on, and i drove 1 mile to my scheduled doctor's appointment. i parked my jetta with plans to address the matter after my appointment. when i returned to my car, it would not start, and i called aaa to tow my car to the nearest vw dealership. as i mentioned, this had never happened before, and i was in absolute shock because i love my clean diesel, and i have encouraged 4 other friends to buy the exact same model!!! after leaving the car at the vw dealership, i began to do some research online about the issues people are having with the bosch high pressure fuel pumps in the vw clean diesels. honestly, this has deeply changed how i feel about my car, and worries me greatly! it is incredibly dangerous to have a car completely lose power! :( from what i understand, vw is "suggesting" that hundreds of people have put gas in their diesel engines. my husband has had a jetta diesel wagon for 12 years and has over 200, 000 miles on it, so we are well versed in the use of diesel. we have never put gasoline in our diesel cars!!! we are incredibly disappointed in the way vw is handling this issue. to suggest that hundreds of loyal, devoted diesel fans that have purchased their cars are at fault is an enormous mistake, as is suggesting that consumers are not buying "quality diesel." take that up with the refineries and gas stations, volkswagen, not your loyal customers. *tr.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 17950 miles.

VOLKSWAGEN JETTA 2012 car safety problem was reported on Jan 16, 2014.VOLKSWAGEN JETTA 2012, manufactured by Volkswagen of America, Inc. had a problem with FUEL SYSTEM, DIESEL . on thursday, january 16, 2014, at about 1145 hours, i was traveling sb i-15 in the number one lane, in murrieta, ca in my 2012 volkswagen jetta tdi, with my cruise control set at approximately 77 miles per hour. without any prior warning, a warning light on my dashboard (later identified as the glow plug light) began to flash and i simultaneously lost power. luckily, i was able to merge over to the winchester rd. off ramp. as i slowed and came to a stop, my vehicle stalled and i was unable to restart it after numerous attempts. i was stranded in the center lane of a three lane off ramp where numerous vehicles nearly rear ended me. i immediately called 9-1-1 for assistance. as a result, a highway patrol unit arrived within several minutes to prevent me from being in an auto accident. i telephoned my insurance company after calling 9-1-1 in order to be towed to murrieta volkswagen. several hours later i received word from the dealership that they found numerous shards of metal in the high pressure fuel pump (hpfp) and gas line. the dealership also informed me that they would be submitting a claim to volkswagen in order to repair the damages, which have been initially quoted at $4000.00. they also told me they would need at least a week to repair the vehicle. i have read numerous accounts online where tdi owners have complained of the exact same issues: finding shards of metal in their fuel filters as well as experiencing a failure of the hpfp. no one else should have to endure the dangerous situation i found myself in yesterday, let alone the expense i am facing if volkswagen denies the claim the dealership is filing on my behalf. please help all of us. this is a widespread issue that volkswagen has not corrected with their tdi clean diesel engines.

VOLKSWAGEN JETTA 2012 car safety problem was reported on Aug 07, 2014.VOLKSWAGEN JETTA 2012, manufactured by Volkswagen of America, Inc. had a problem with FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM . the 2012 jetta tdi sportwagen was working perfectly as we drove to a local concert in the park. after stopping for approximately 2.5 hours for the concert my wife, eight-month old child and i started the vehicle to head back home, at this time the vehicle started and was working properly. after driving approximately one-mile i pushed the accelerator to go over a small bridge and the vehicle had almost no power then the glow pug lights and the check engine light came on. i then pulled into a parking lot to shut off the vehicle to be sure we were safe and did not cause any damage to the vehicle. after a minute i tried to restart the vehicle and all seemed ok again for about a 1/2 mile and then the same problem occurred, very low power glow pug light and check engine light came on. we were only two miles from home so as the engine temp was good i continued home on surface streets with little power and made it home. called our local dealer and drove to them the next day, they seemed to know the issue when i called and as expected, the same issue as so many others! the high pressure fuel pump, (hpfp) had failed and metal shavings were strewn throughout the fuel system. volkswagen replaced the entire fuel system under warranty but the real issue remains. when will the nhsta or volkswagen step up to recall vehicles and correct this chronic problem! i am fortunate that my family was not injured but reading many others statements it will only be a matter of time before someone is killed or seriously injured as a direct result of the fuel pump failure problem. there was a 1/2 tank of fuel and this was definitely not a fueling problem. i personally and always fuel the vehicle, use major chain brands and always diesel!.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 59065 miles.

VOLKSWAGEN JETTA 2012 car safety problem was reported on Aug 29, 2014.VOLKSWAGEN JETTA 2012, manufactured by Volkswagen of America, Inc. had a problem with FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM . my car is a 2012 vw jetta tdi, clean diesel. i was driving from san diego ca to las vegas nv. it was over 100 degrees. i was traveling on interstate 15 north about 70 miles per hour. 80 miles from las vegas, glow light indicator came on, car lost power. i pulled over and car stalled, would not restart. called vw, told them about the glow light indicator. they agreed to tow the car to lv. we sat on the road side for more than 4 hours in 100+ degree heat. vw repaired the car in 6 days, no cost to me except rental car. cause was described as 'metal shavings in fuel system' later referred to as high pressure fuel pump failure. vw replaced the entire fuel system (injectors, lines, filter, fuel pump etc). however at this time i do not know if the same type of hpfp was used or a newly redesigned one. i am trying to clarify that. this is obviously a design flaw of some type. it can not be caused by bad fuel. the fuel filter would have caught any metal shavings. any metal in the fuel downstream of the fuel filter had to come from the car itself. not only that, having followed the recommended maintenance schedule for my car, my fuel filter was replaced at 20k miles. http://pics.tdiclub.com/data/516/2012_jetta.pdf similar complaint (nhtsa action number : ea11003) does not seem to cover 2012 models so i am filing this one instead. .0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 35260 miles.

VOLKSWAGEN JETTA 2012 car safety problem was reported on Feb 15, 2013.VOLKSWAGEN JETTA 2012, manufactured by Volkswagen Group of America, Inc. had a problem with SERVICE BRAKES . i was stopped at a red light headed up hill. the light turned green i released the brakes & clutch while pushing the gas pedal. much to my surprise this killed the engine. (i have driven sticks shifts for 50 years.) the car stopped abruptly. the car behind me having seen my brake lights go off and my car begin to move had to slam on his brakes to avoid hitting me. his honking and rude gestures were not necessary, but understandable. we were probably both cursing, i know i was. complaining to the dealer i was amazed to learn it was supposed to do this! in addition, since the then i have figured out that if one sets the handbrake to soon the the electronics will eventually release the hydraulic pressure and the parking brake which had been pulled to the full extent of its travel now has several more clicks left to go and is not fully set. we learned this when the unoccupied car rolled down the driveway into a tree across the street. we were not pleased. (vw of america, however, was not concerned.) to really keep us guessing this "feature" does not consistently activate - there is a range of degrees of slope where it may or may not come into play. having it not hold when one expects it to has caused minor damage and several more close calls. vwoa will not allow dealers to deactivate. trying to replace the car with something more drivable i have learned this has become a widespread curse on many newer vehicles, even those with automatic transmissions. this idea is not only wrong it is wrong-headed. how in god's name can a deliberate brake malfunction be palmed off as a "safety feature". and if there are people so incompetent as to need or want this, why must the rest of us be plagued with it. like most answers to any question no one has asked it is wrong. it is wrong and dangerous. and in case you hadn't noticed, annoying..0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 6500 miles.

VOLKSWAGEN JETTA 2012 car safety problem was reported on Jan 09, 2015.VOLKSWAGEN JETTA 2012, manufactured by Volkswagen Group of America, Inc. had a problem with ENGINE . tried to start vehicle started once then stalled immediately. tried a second and third time vehicle would just click. let car sit 14 hours vehicle clicked once then started and ran rough with white smoke coming out of exhaust. read up on hard starts and found out about intercooler freezing. pulled tubing off and found approx. 2-3 oz of clear water and 4-5 oz of green sludge in the intercooler piping. numerous instances of this have occurred even on the highway some of these have resulted in a condition called hydrolock resulting in bent connecting rods. this has also occurred in vehicles being driven at highway speeds. at highway speeds this will cause a rapid loss of engine power possibly causing a vehicle accident. there are numerous forums noting this in 2009-2012 models and possibly 13-14 models .0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 37000 miles.
