1 Fuel Injection Rail problem

Failure Date: 06/06/2011

High pressure fuel pump failed at 52000 miles. The entire fuel system was replaced with a warranty on parts of 12000 miles. After 15000 miles I experienced issue with high pressure fuel pump again. The fuel line from high pressure pump to fuel rail was replaced.

2 Fuel Injection Rail problem

Failure Date: 08/16/2010

I contacted vw mid-August 2011 because my car broke down while I was driving and then I could smell gas. I had it towed to vw and there was a problem with a leak in the fuel rail. All four fuel injectors had to be replaced, as well as the gaskets, fuel rail, and spark plugs. This repair cost me approximately $1,100. 00. I have enclosed a copy of my bill showing the repairs done and total cost of repairs. When I contacted vw in mid-August I was informed by them that there are no ¿problems with the Jetta fuel injectors� and that it is not their fault that I have the ¿lemon of the bunch�. Very poor customer service skills with all vw personal I have spoken with. I now enclose the recent articles about the fuel injector problems with the vw vehicles. For some reason this recall only includes the diesel engines-which clearly should not be the case. I am requesting reimbursement for this repair as it is related to the same problems vw is having with the diesel-engines per the enclosed vw article on recalls. This vehicle should also be included in the recall.
