2009 Volkswagen GTI Service Brakes Problems, Complaints and Defects

Issue ID	1226602
Internal NHTSA #	10779987
Manufacurer	Volkswagen Group of America, Inc.
Brand	VOLKSWAGEN
Model	GTI
Model Year	2009
File date	16/09/15
Component	SERVICE BRAKES
Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	Abs control module fault. Several times my brake light warning has come on, suddenly, and have lost abs function and lost braking power while driving. Very scary on highway. Vw shop found 7 different fault codes and could not gain response or contact with the control module. It is essentially dead now whenever i turn on car. I have read dozens of complaints online about similar problems with other 2009 vws. Since this has happened after my extended 60,000 mile warranty (68,000miles now) vw will not cover issue despite it being endemic. Please investigate, this is dangerous and needs to be covered by the company and recalled to keep people safe.

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.
