I HAVE RECEIVED A RECALL LETTER DATED AUGUST 2014 BECAUSE OF A FAULTY IGNITION SWITCH. NHTSA 14V-369. THERE IS STILL NO SOLUTION BEING OFFERED BY THE MANUFACTURER AND I AM DRIVING MY FAMILY AROUND WITH A DANGEROUS IGNITION PROBLEM THAT HAS KILLED MANY PASSENGERS. I DO NOT HAVE ANYTHING ATTACHED TO THE KEY, WHICH PRESUMABLY HELPS, BUT I WOULD LIKE MY CAR TO BE SAFE. I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY VW IS ALLOWED TO PROCRASTINATE THIS WAY. IF THEY CANNOT FIX THE PROBLEM THEY SHOULD BE REPLACING MY CAR WITH AN ALTERNATIVE VEHICLE. *TR

I FOUND ONE REPORT ON THE INTERNET THAT SAID VOLKSWAGEN STARTED SERVICING THE CLOCKSPRING AS OF 2010 ROUTON MODELS BUT DID NOTHING FOR THE 2009 ROUTON. *JS
