Description of the problem	Hello, i recently learned about the recall that volkswagen has for 2009-2010 gti's. The recall was for the abs control module that caused a safety concern to our cars. What i cannot understand is how my friend got a recall ketter and i did not (we have the same exact cars).. My abs module went out last year and i remember driving on the roads every day without traction, esc control, pretty much my whole dash was lightened up.. I am a college student and had to pay 1600 dollars out my tuition fund just to pay for this problem that is now a recall a year later! I am wondering if vw figured that my car was good and thought i wouldnt need a recall letter. But guess what, if my friend is getting his gti abs module repaired for free by volkswagen, i think its only fair for me to get my money back that i spent for this problem.. I have the reciepts and i am pretty sure it is in the volkswagen database!

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.
