1 Engine Belts And Pulleys problem

Failure Date: 08/06/2019

While driving the vehicle, it starts to stall or have stalled while slowing down or sitting in rush hour traffic; or while stopped at a red light. The dealer stated the code was p0011 and the camshaft position sensor needed to be replaced. The part was about $75 and the labor just under $400. The check engine light came back on within 2 days and the issue started again. Now the dealer stated code p0011 again, and also code p0016 crank shaft position correlation which is the timing belt he stated. He also quoted a price over $3000 to have the work completed. I asked if this was the problem all along and the p0011 was misdiagnosed the last time since you have the same code again. Was the old position sensor bad or not. He could not answer. I told him I can't keep spending money if you can't grantee a fix. I don't want to come back in a few weeks with the same code, but the price keeps going up. Also, that stated they completed a recall update to the ecm software. I told them I was surprised as I had checked NHTSA and it stated 0 incomplete recalls. I know this as I researched the p0011 issue several weeks ago, and someone mentioned in a post to check for this update. . Read more...

2 Engine Belts And Pulleys problem

Failure Date: 06/01/2014

Bought the car may 1st 2014 13 miles on it. . . All of may seemed to run ok. . . Then from June until now sept 2015 it has a non responsive gas pedal. Same problem as entry in may 2013. It scares me to death!!! can't get past 30 mph trying to get onto the freeway. . . . Crossing traffic from lights. . . Trying to change lanes. . . . Scares me when I see a big semi barreling down on me and I can't get out of the way and he is blaring his horn giving me the finger and yelling. . . . This on several occasions. I have taken it into 2 different vw shops. . . They cant duplicate it so therefore there isn't anything wrong. . . No codes. . . Also hazzard light on seat belt lite on and dinging. . . Took 3 mo to fix those. . . . Yet seat belt still does. . . . . . One day its ok next not. Worst now is it is tearing my 2011 fusion apart and the pain is excruciating. Vw would not take the car back. . . Bbb was involved until I casted the foot for relief. . . . Vw offered me one mo free payment. . . That I didn't take because I wanted them to take the car back. Then June July August the gas mileage drops by nearly 100 miles and they say it is because I used the air condition. . . Hardly. . . Aug got only 254 mpg. . . . I don't feel safe in this car. I tried to enter this last year but apparently it didn't take it.
