First compliant number-10442730 I am reporting yet another occurrence with this car. I have had this car at the dealer several times for the same issue. The dealer fixed a check valve because the fuel rail pressure was too low. Approx. 1600 miles after it was fixed the car started to do the exact same thing shuttering and stalling. The car is now back at the dealership and they are telling me that it is the fuel that we are using in my car. They took a fuel sample and also drove the car 300 miles and can't find anything wrong with it. I do not want to drive this car any longer for fear of being in a wreck. The car has stalled on my 3 times in the past month. Vw doesn't seem to think this is a big deal I have had this car for less than 6 months and the car has been in the shop several times I am paying for my car to sit in the shop! I want my money back. I will not know anything about there fuel sample test for three weeks.

High pressure fuel pump failed at 52000 miles. The entire fuel system was replaced with a warranty on parts of 12000 miles. After 15000 miles I experienced issue with high pressure fuel pump again. The fuel line from high pressure pump to fuel rail was replaced.

I contacted vw mid-August 2011 because my car broke down while I was driving and then I could smell gas. I had it towed to vw and there was a problem with a leak in the fuel rail. All four fuel injectors had to be replaced, as well as the gaskets, fuel rail, and spark plugs. This repair cost me approximately $1,100. 00. I have enclosed a copy of my bill showing the repairs done and total cost of repairs. When I contacted vw in mid-August I was informed by them that there are no ¿problems with the Jetta fuel injectors� and that it is not their fault that I have the ¿lemon of the bunch�. Very poor customer service skills with all vw personal I have spoken with. I now enclose the recent articles about the fuel injector problems with the vw vehicles. For some reason this recall only includes the diesel engines-which clearly should not be the case. I am requesting reimbursement for this repair as it is related to the same problems vw is having with the diesel-engines per the enclosed vw article on recalls. This vehicle should also be included in the recall.
