Transmission Not Go Into Gear problems of the 2009 Volkswagen GTI

I took my car to gunther Volkswagen in ft lauderdale, FL. My automatic dsg transmission was not shifting into gear on many occasions as I was driving, parking stopped at a light. On several occasions this problem had resulted in some near accidents with other cars, and on two occasions I had hit a pole and a wall. The near accidents with cars had occurred in parking situations as well as on the street at traffic lights when my car would not move and cars behind me almost hit me. Another occasion my car would not move when I was at an intersection waiting for traffic to clear to turn left, and the light changed. When this problem was occurring the shift indicator letters in the electronic display would flash with boxes around them. It was discovered by the dealer that the transmission problem I was having was the subject of a voluntary recall by Volkswagen. I was told that the mechatronic unit of my transmission would be replaced under this voluntary recall as well as the other fuse recall. Later in the day I was called by car dealership and they informed me that the fuse recall work would be done but the transmission recall would not be done because my car had a rebuilt title. The car had been in an accident where it sustained damage to right front suspension and insurance company had paid out claim and declared vehicle a total loss. I bought "salvaged" vehicle and repaired damage for under $1,000 and retitled (rebuilt) vehicle under florida law. According to what I have read on NHTSA website if vehicle is on the road and being driven around manufacturers are required to perform recall repairs on them. The recall on this transmission issue was subject of an investigation by NHTSA (action number peo9035) several accidents had occurred because of it but no injuries were reported. Can you please advise if vw is required to repair my vehicle under this voluntary recall?.

Experiencing several safety issues with vw dsg transmission in my 2009 Gti. First, shifting into park. When shifting from either reverse or drive into park on a hill, vehicle rolls 3 feet and then hits a hard "stop". Second, very hard downshifting/engine braking in automatic mode when slowing down. This happens at 20 mph and then again at 10 mph. If you are applying the brakes when this engine braking happens it is impossible to stop at a desired point. You can be smoothly applying the brake and then when you slow to 20 mph the engine braking drastically slows the vehicle even more. It's like shifting into a lower gear at too high a speed while simultaneously applying the brakes. Very dangerous! third, lurch/surge when starting on a hill. When backing out of a spot on a hill or starting forward on a hill having just put the vehicle in drive the engine revs for 3 seconds as if it is not in gear and then lurches suddenly forward.

My 2009 vw Gti with dsg very briefly lost power while attempting to accelerate on the highway. The engine revved, but the transmission felt as if it were not in gear. This lasted 2-3 seconds, during a merge. Had there been fast-moving traffic closer behind, I could have easily been rear-ended. Lifting off the accelerator and re-applying seemed to get the car back in gear. This was the only occurrence. The car has not been taken for service; I am submitting this complaint in response to the NHTSA's investigation into vw's dsg.
