2 Other Fuel System Pump problem

Failure Date: 11/03/2017

"fuel pump defect". My 2013 vw Jetta has been randomly stalling out in mid commute within the last few months. I will be driving and the vehicle just cuts off and I have to crank the car back on and being mindful of ongoing traffic. This is increasing becoming an issue as I initially thought it was a random occurrence however as this has repeatedly occurred out of no where when I'm traveling in heavy traffic it has become very scary in an accident occuring. I saw that there is a recall on select vw vehicles however it does not include my vehicle which appears should also be immediately included as this is a serious safety issue with this vehicle.

3 Other Fuel System Pump problem

Failure Date: 10/20/2016

The high pressure fuel pump broke leaving metal shaving in my fuel tank. I had this replaced at 38k miles and now it is broke again at 78k. Vw extended the warranty for 2006-2012 vehicles for 10 yrs or 120k miles. But since my vehicle is a 2013 they will not covered it. I believe they are still using the same faulty fuel pump for the 2013.

4 Other Fuel System Pump problem

Failure Date: 09/30/2016

While driving up hill on a city street traveling at 40 miles per hour the engine lost power. Fortunately traffic was light at the time and I was able to get to the side of the road before the engine lost all power and later would not restart. . If this was on the highway, I would have been disabled in traffic lanes creating a hazard for myself and others. Various warning lights came on at the time the engine lost power. I later found out the problem was a 'catastrophic' high pressure fuel pump failure. This is a known problem for which Volkswagen has blamed on incorrect or poor fuel. This was not the cause the pump failure in my vehicle and points to problems with the part itself. I learned that Volkswagen provided an extended warranty for high pressure fuel pumps, but only up to the 2012 model year. (my vehicle is a 2013 model. ) my vehicle had 70,657 miles on it at the time the problem occurred.

5 Other Fuel System Pump problem

Failure Date: 06/29/2016

I purchased the car on 3/2013, by 5/2016 the ac compressor failed and I had to pay $1,000 to replace, 2 weeks later the fuel pump failed and the car stopped in the middle of the road while driving, this was very unsafe I had my child in the back seat and we could have had a serious accident. The vw refuses to repair because a they say it's not a defaulty fuel pump. The dealer service states it should be approved and covered for full repair. Now, I have a $4,000 bill I can't pay, a car I can't drive and a car payment for a car I can't drive. I need help with this defective fuel pump.

The problem showing error code p0087, p0387 high pressure fuel pump failure, the cost of expensive to repair, difficult to meet warranty related power-train & engine. It has been twoce break down. Its third break down. It only 62k mileages on it. Vw want to working on it due of out of warranty cost. I am not happy that vw is not qualify to inspect part problem cause. I hope it is affect other customers who have simply problem with hpfp.

7 Other Fuel System Pump problem

Failure Date: 07/06/2015

While driving in my neighborhood I drove away from a stop sign and lost engine power. I pulled over and saw my glow plug light on and the check engine light on. I put the car in park and turned it off and then tried restarting it. No luck. I had the vehicle towed to the closest vw dealer in my area and the next day was told my high pressure fuel pump had failed and before they would fix the issue a fuel sample would have to be tested. I asked why and they said there has been issues with misfueling with unleaded gasoline and they said they believed I did not misfuel my car but were following vw's new service protocol. It has been 16 days and I was told they sent my fuel sample to the wrong place and it never made it to the "independent" lab. So now I wait and the car has not been touched. My vehicle ran normally until the complete failure of the hpfp and my car is under the new car warranty still. I should not have to be dealing with this and be told if the diesel is not up to specs that I responsible for the guestimated $7,000 bill. There are so many cases of this issue and even the dealer admitted the car is not designed for the quality of fuel we have in the u. S. And it makes me concerned that car should not be produced if it cannot handle our fuel, roads, emissions testing, etc. . I am absolutely frustrated, upset, and do not trust the service by the dealership any longer and do not event want to own my car anymore. I will never buy another vw again.

High pressure fuel pump noise. Dealer diagnosed as pump failure due to contaminated fuel. Vehicle had always been fueled at high volume diesel outlet. Fuel outlet has local govt. Fuel contracts and monitors fuel on strict schedules as per their contracts.

(due to bad fuel) ?.

10 Other Fuel System Pump problem

Failure Date: 10/16/2013

Car is a diesel/tdi. Check engine light came on, car stalled and would not restart. Had to be towed to dealership. Problem turned out to be the high pressure fuel pump (hpfp) and entire fuel system had to be replaced. This has happened twice in the same car (once again in may of 2014 - exact same problem).

11 Other Fuel System Pump problem

Failure Date: 08/26/2013

My vehicle suddenly lost acceleration and subsequently stalled. Fortunately, I was able to pull between some construction cones before it lost power completely. Upon towing to a dealer, I was told the fuel pump had failed. Vw warranty will cover all damage, but it is considerable. All fuel injectors, pumps, lines etc will be replaced. I soon learned from friends that this happened to their tdi model vehicles as well. All information that I find dates to 2011, but you need to know this problem is still occurring. I am very cautious about where I fill up and still experienced this failure. In spite of being assured by the vw mechanic that my car will be "perfect," I feel that I need to report this incident.
