Volkswagen Jetta Fuel System, Diesel Safety Report | July 07, 2011
Reported on July 07, 2011
| 2011 VW JETTA SPORTWAGEN TDI SURGING AT TIMES AND SPUTTERING. ONLY 1000 MILES AND HAVE HAD FOR 2 WEEKS. THE CONTROLLABILITY AT THAT SURGING MOMENT SEEMS OFF AND IF IT'S DOING THAT WHILE I NEED TO AVOID SOMETHING OR SOMEONE IT COULD BE DANGEROUS. ALSO SURGING OR BUCKING WHILE YOU STOP. RECIPE FOR A REAR END COLLISION. THIS IS A 6SPD AUTOMATIC AND IT FEELS LIKE A WEIRD DOWNSHIFT AS YOU COME TO A STOP. FINALLY WINDOW NOW DECIDES TO GO DOWN ON IT'S OWN THIS COULD BE AN ISSUE AT THE WRONG TIME IN A RAIN OR SNOW STORM. *TR | |
