I am requesting that the agency please investigate the performance of the ignition coil plugs on the model year 2000, Volkswagen, Jetta. I have experienced multiple stalling events and car not starting up after up or being parked after shutting off engine as a result of one or more ignition plus malfunctioning on my 2000 Volkswagen Jetta gl. As a result of the engine stalling and not starting when ignition is accelerated, I have also I experienced a loss of power steering and increased breaking efforts when I pulled the vehicle over to the side of the road. The car would not start when sitting for a while. After about 45 minutes or longer - I was able to start the vehicle although the engine operated at a reduced power. The vehicle will stall and will not start up for no reason at all. I feel very unsafe and nervous when driving - and have had the problem over and over and have paid for costly repairs. Still to no avail, it keeps happening. Tired of the vehicle - will never ever purchase a Volkswagen again! please investigate the electrical system ignition module on Volkswagen Jettas - year 2000 please ASAP !!! I have been stranded in the worst places with the vehicle - with no help to restart the vehicle.
The vehicle failed to start on several occasions due to immobilizer being activated. The dealer repaired the vehicle a number of times for the same problem, but was unable to correct the problem.
