Abs module recall I have an incomplete recall that Volkswagen is not trying to fix.

When it clearly states in the recall that abs modules with an insufficient ground connection would be replaced.

I purchased this 2009 Jetta vw used from my daughter. She was original owner and diligent about keeping the maintenance up to date. It had 115,000 miles when I purchased it and had to replace battery and rear brakes within 3 months although she had replaced rear brakes 6 months earlier. My complaint is the parking brake never seemed to hold and I would need to leave the car in gear when parking the car on a hill. The car had rolled back when I left the car parked at my work 6 months ago and it rolled back and hit the sidewalk curb. No damage at the time. Today 8/28. 17 I went to the store and parked the car outside the stores entrance door. The lot has a very slight slope but generally level. I pulled back on the hand brake which seemed secure. When I left the car I was gone for less than 3 min when I entered the store. I had forgotten my cellphone and returned to the car which was only 10 ft from door. It had rolled back about 50 ft and hit a tree in the parking lot. . The crash caused damage to my rear right right fender and quarter panel in the amount of over $2000. This crash was direct result of a faulty hand brake. It was only a miracle that no car or children were hit by the car. Only a lone tree was damaged. I believe this is a defect of this model. My daughter confirmed that this had also occurred with her after setting the parking brake to his full stop position. I believe vw should take responsibility for the damages.

The abs module is defective and a software update will not repair a bad soldering. Please advise.

My abs module stopped working oct 2016, I had it repaired Nov 2016. I received a safety recall notice for the abs module Feb 2017. Stated would reimburse for repairs if they had already been made. I mailed requested information 3/3/17. I phoned on 4-12-17 to verify it was received. I was told it was received on 3/9/17 and was under review. I was told that the recall was for a specific part, not the entire abs module and my repair bill did not have the part number that was replaced on it. I was told to wait for a letter explaining what further information they would need from my mechanic and I should have that letter in a couple of weeks. After a month and receiving no letter I called on 5/17/17 and was told still under review, I would have a response in 4 weeks. By 6/23/17 still no letter so I called again and was told by the rep she would call me back after she looked into it. On 6/26/17 the vw rep phoned me and stated they would not be paying my claim because I had the abs module repaired instead of a completely replaced. This is the exact opposite of what I was told originally. I believe this to be a scam to not have to pay. Per their original recall letter-attached-it was a specific defect in the abs system and not the entire system itself. The decline letter that I received-attached-states that it was not covered because I needed to replace it with a new abs module. Clearly they change their story to suit their needs.
