Automatic Transmission problems of the 2006 Volkswagen Jetta - part 2

There is a design flaw in the engine/transmission of my 2006 Jetta tdi. Always when rolling slowly and sometimes from a standing stop, pressing hard on the accelerator to pull out into traffic there is a 1-2 second lag before anything happens. It is as if the engine totally bogs down and then catches sometimes throwing your head back, but more importantly delaying the acceleration. I had purchased this vehicle for a 16 year old child, but cannot let him drive it for this reason.

- the contact stated that after driving the 2006 Volkswagen tdi diesel and coming to a stop she put the vehicle in park and the vehicle continued to roll about 4-6 inches further. The contact stated that this was a safety problem, if someone were in front of the vehicle it could hit him/her. This was noticed after buying the vehicle. The contact took the vehicle to the dealership and was informed that there was no adjustment to be made on the vehicle. The contact took the vehicle to another dealership called wallace Volkswagen in tennessee. He stated that the service manager was waiting for a Volkswagen representative to come in to the dealership and have him look at the vehicle. The sales manager informed the contact that this was a problem. The failure mileage was 40 miles and the current mileage was 24,800. Consumer states while getting oil change the dealer was notified of the problem by adjusting cable on gear shift but to no avail the problem is still yet to be fixed. 4/23/tr.

Afer 1477 miles, the transmission on my 2006 tdi Jetta failed. It has been in the shop for 1 week and the dealer tells me it will take another 2 weeks before the parts come in. I called vw and they said they would discuss arbitration after the car was fixed. They would not take the car back. That's vw quality and service for a $27k car.
