2017 Volkswagen Jetta

I PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE FROM LARSON AUTOMOTIVE GROUP IN MID JANUARY 2021 AND, ONLY AFTER CHECKING YOUR SITE, FOUND THE RECALL. I NOTIFIED THEM AND THEY RETURNED THE CAR AND I PURCHASED A DIFFERENT JETTA THAT I HAVE NO PROBLEMS WITH. MY CONCERN IS THAT THEY ARE STILL SELLING THIS VEHICLE AND AT LEAST 4 OTHER JETTA 1.4 TS ON THEIR SITE. I AM WORRIED OTHERS WILL NOT CHECK AS I DID AND BE SOLD A CAR THAT IS UNSAFE, WITH AN ACTIVE RECALL.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 VOLKSWAGEN JETTA. THE CONTACT RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 20V648000 (FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE) HOWEVER, THE PART TO DO THE RECALL REPAIR WAS NOT YET AVAILABLE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE MANUFACTURER EXCEEDED A REASONABLE AMOUNT OF TIME FOR THE RECALL REPAIR. THE CONTACT CALLED VOLKSWAGEN OF SALEM COUNTY (815 US-40, MONROEVILLE, NJ 08343) AND THE MANUFACTURER, AND WAS INFORMED THAT THE PART WAS NOT YET AVAILABLE. THE CONTACT HAD NOT EXPERIENCED A FAILURE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT HE WAS CONCERNED FOR HIS SAFETY AND HAD STOPPED DRIVING THE VEHICLE. VIN TOOL CONFIRMS PARTS NOT AVAILABLE.

I CALLED VOLKSWAGEN TODAY TO ASK ABOUT THE FUEL RAIL REPAIR AND WAS INFORMED THEY HAVE NO SOLUTION NOR A TIME FRAME OF WHEN THEY INTEND TO BE ABLE TO FIX IT. I PERSONALLY DON'T FEEL SAFE ALLOWING MY SON TO CONTINUE TO DRIVE THE CAR. I WAS THEN INFORMED THAT I COULD NOT SELL THE CAR DUE TO THE RECALL NOW I'M STUCK WITH A VEHICLE I CANNOT SELL OR DRIVE DUE TO THE POSSIBILITY THAT IT MY CATCH FIRE. I FEEL AS THOUGH THEY SHOULD BE REQUIRED TO FIX IT IN A TIMELY MANNER OR BUY THE VEHICLE BACK

CAR HAS 65K ON IT AND HAS BEEN ACTING UP FOR AT LEAST 10K MILES ON THE FOLLOWING ITEMS: 1. THE AIRBAG INDICATOR LIGHT ON DASH WENT ON FOR NO REASON AND I HAD TO PAY A DIAGNOSTIC FEE FOR IT TO BE RESET. 2. THE RADIO LINKS TO MY PHONE ONLY 50% OF THE TIME WITH A FAILURE NOTICE POSTED ON THE MONITOR. THE BLUETOOTH WILL STILL WORK BUT TO CONNECT WITH MY CORD TO ALSO CHARGE, VERY INCONSISTENT. 3. THE TIRE DASH LIGHT IS CONSTANTLY ILLUMINATED DESPITE HAVING THE TIRES AND MONITORS CHECKED SEVERAL TIMES. 4. THE BACK UP WARNING INDICATOR HAS RECENTLY STOPPED ALERTING ME AND I CAME WITHIN INCHES OF BACKING INTO A CAR TODAY. I WOULD LIKE MY DASH TO BE ERROR MESSAGE FREE AND MY RADIO RELIABLY WORKING VIA MY PHONE CORD. I HAVE TRIED DIFFERENT CORDS, PURCHASED NEW TIRES AND MONITORS, AND THE SAME ISSUES CONTINUALLY OCCUR. THIS ALL OCCURS WHEN THE VEHICLE IS POWERED ON, DOES NOT MATTER IF IT IS PARKED OR BEING DRIVEN.
