1 Owners/service Manual problem of the 2009 Volkswagen Routan

Failure Date: 02/08/2020

Vehicle has been moving and will suddenly shut down while driving. All power steering, braking and electrical systems go out. I have to try to manually swerve off the road and put the car in park. Take the key out of the ignition and restart. I understand that this problem had been fixed in 2015 under a recall with the win module and vw indicates that since it's been fixed they only offer a 12 month warranty. For me to get a new win module, the dealership said it would be $2,000 and a long estimated time without the car. This car is blue booked as only worth $3,500. 00. This is again a faulty piece that should be covered by the recall. The car only has 75k miles. There's no reason to have a car with 75k miles and need two win modules so far. I want this to be in writing that when I am driving on I-95 and my car suddenly stalls and my 2 1/2 year old and 4 1/2 year old and myself end up in a casket, it's because of this faulty product which they will not cover again on the recall.

2 Owners/service Manual problem of the 2011 Volkswagen Routan

Failure Date: 05/29/2017

The minivan suddenly gave away on the transmission. At speeds of around 70mph, the transmission was in "d" (auto transmission vs manual) but there was no engagement from the engine. Giving more gas the engine was just revving up as if it was in neutral. Moved it to neutral and back to drive and still the engine revved up without engagement. Had to move over to the right lane and started slowing down to stop. After about 2-3 minutes, tried again and then the car suddenly revved up to 5000rpm or so as if it was in the 2nd or 3rd gear. It then re-adjusted itself and started picking up speed. Please investigate ASAP since this happened during peak traffic on a highway when trying to overtake a truck with the van full of passengers.
