Warnings problem #1

Volkswagen mandatory software update/campaign 24fi corrupted the ocu/telematics firmware on my vehicle. This firmware corruption deactivated the critical emergency sos safety system (automatic crash notification), leaving a persistent red fault light on the overhead console. The dealership confirmed the internal malfunction code(b105207 & b200049) occurred immediately after they performed the flash, but the manufacturer is refusing to remedy the compromised safety system at no cost.

Warnings problem #2

Hit a pot hole in the road and vehicle completely shut down and will not crank. Diagnostic code u0100 is saying that the ecm and pcm are no longer communicating. If I had been on the highway or in a high traffic area that could have been a life threatening situation as everything is run through the electronics of the car.
