Description of the problem	Traveling down the road at 60mph, the engine suddenly lost power and the tachometer redlined before it dropped into first gear. The epc light came on. My wife was driving. I got in and the light was out, so i drove for five minutes and the light came on and i lost power on the highway at 65mph -- same issue with tach. I pulled over to the side of the road and took it to the nearest mechanic shop. It is still at the shop as they are trying to troubleshoot. Noticed that vw put out a tech bulletin in 2009 (15 09 03 dec. 16, 2009 2015153 supersedes t. B. Group 15 number 09-02 dated november 10, 2009 to revise technical diagnosis code in warranty table.) but did not issue a recall. Seriously, this is a major safety issue as the truck behind me swerved to miss me. Searching the internet, it seems that there are numerous complaints regarding this, but no recall to fix this. Help!!!

What is Recall?
A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
What is Failure?
Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.
