My car made a loud banging noise and would not move even though engine was running. Had towed and was told car needs new transmission I brought to another mechanic for second opinion and was told the same thing code p073300.
Key locked in ignition at an unsafe area where I was stuck for hours. Car has approximately 89,000 miles and the key being stuck in ignition has happened to me twice recently and I know it will continue to do so until there is a recall for the safety issue that the ignition causes.
At about 40,000 miles- car would not move in drive position. Dash code: esc. Luckily, 2018 Jetta still under warranty and the transmission was replaced under warranty.
After reversing and then stopping and shifting from reverse to drive the transmission pops in to gear. Also vehicle radio turns on and off at random times having to restart while in motion.
