Strong fuel smell coming in from ac vents when car at a stop. Seen this car model was previously recalled for fuel smell in past. When driving off smell seems to go away since air seems to be flowing it out of engine bay.
Recall -engine and engine cooling I have a 07 Jetta 2. 0l. 2 months ago I noticed a gas smell when I took my oil cap off I noticed there was a lot of steam/smoke & I could tell that's where the smell was coming from. There was nothing visible other than the steam/gas vapor. The coolant level never moves. I was only getting 15 miles to the gallon because it was leaking into my engine. On 7/13/19 the engine seized (locked) up while I was driving it. I was driving my wife to work with our 5 year old son. I had just turned on the street of her work going 10 miles an hour & it felt like my car just died. I couldn't even get the engine to turn over. I had to get my vehicle towed to a repair shop. Which is when I found out that the engine seized. I have absolutely no transportation now. (recall faulty air bags my car is miles away at the repair shop, so I can't take a picture of the air bag light but it turned on about a week ago and hasn't shut off. My concern is that this is something that a repair shop can not fix/ its going to be so expensive that I can't afford to fix it. It has faulty air bags that can just go off while I'm driving! safety bags are a �must have� & it is illegal to sell/produce any non safe vehicle! I seen that Volkswagen company made a hand full of recalls on this vehicle over the last 8 years. The previous owner kept the car in a garage & started it daily he just never checked for recalls. Parts on this car are compatible with the 06-09 Jettas& sportwagons & he had replaced parts. I'm unsure which ones were replaced. My vehicle falls under the category of a vw Jetta sedan. I'm having all of the same recall issues that the Jetta is recalling for. & the horn does not work when it's parked. Your company posted the recalls for all of the same problems that I'm having with this vehicle! recall no. 40j2/s4. Recall no. 20i4/u1. � recall no. Q8. �.
I am the owner of a 2007 Volkswagen Jetta, wulfsburg edition, VIN#3vwef71k67m190792. Over the past four months, I have had numerous problems with the car shutting down in the middle of traffic. In April 2013 and three times since, the vehicle has stalled without notice, in the middle of traffic. I have had repairs done twice at the dealer, but the problem still persist. The car will display the ¿battery� symbol once it stops. The engine will shut down but after about 20-30 minutes and after contacting police and tow trucks, the car restarts. I have had the vehicle towed four times to the dealer. Twice, they could not find anything wrong because there were no warning lights showing; the car was running perfectly. This problem normally occurred during rush hour traffic. I travel long distances on the highway to work and have been fortunate that the car has not shutdown on the highway; I am normally in local traffic when it completely just shuts down. This is a very dangerous situation. I don¿t have any other transportation to get to work and do not fill safe driving my vehicle. The dealer does not seem concerned, and expressed that I may just be making up the problem. After sitting in rush hour traffic for an hour, I can assure this is not a made up problem.
