Owners/service Manual Problems of Volkswagen Golf

On several occasions since about April 8,2019 my new gti stalled while I was driving. When the car stalls it does so without warning. The stall occurs as if the car simply turned off. On a few occasions the car stalled when I stopped at a stop sign or when I drove onto my driveway. Twice the car stalled in bumper to bumper traffic on i580 near san francisco. Both of those stalls came at a moment when vehicles following me nearly collided with me because traffic began to move but my car stalled and for a moment did not move in sync with traffic. The stalling seems to happen more as I come to a stop. It has been happening more frequently over the last few days also. I realized there is in fact an issue so I contacted the dealership where I purchased the car. I have an appointment in 1 week so they can hopefully address this issue. I will not be driving the car until the dealership clears it as safe to operate. The car is a 2019 vw gti 6 speed manual shift. The stalls started when the car had about 400 miles, today it stalled for about the 8th or 9th time and has about 1125 miles. I am very experienced operating a manual transmission and I know that the stalling is a vehicle issue and not operator error.

Two primary problems with this car at this time: 1. Epc (engine power control) light comes on frequently while driving at street and freeway speeds. When the light comes on the car jerks forward and rides rough. I am concerned about the safety of this car and it not running correctly. The car manual indicates that when the epc light is displayed the engine is malfunctioning. 2. The bluetooth/infotainment system will intermittently freeze and the phone will not disconnect and the radio will work. This is also a safety issue since I have to constantly adjust the settings to try and fix it and pull over the car, turn off the car and try and fix the problem. I have taken the car to a Volkswagen dealer /service center on multiple occasions to fix both problems and they have been unable to fix either problem.
