2015 Volkswagen GTI Service Brakes Problems, Complaints and Defects

Issue ID	1284569
Internal NHTSA #	10865854
Manufacurer	Volkswagen Group of America, Inc.
Brand	VOLKSWAGEN
Model	GTI
Model Year	2015
File date	28/04/16
Component	SERVICE BRAKES
Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	I encountered a close red light and braked hard enough to activate abs from 35 mph in dry road conditions on a suburban highway. When i took my foot off the brake and applied gas after the green light, the car began to travel backwards! I braked again and found that the gear shifter had gone into the reverse position. I believe the braking deceleration caused the gear shifter to travel forward against any mechanical restraint and come to rest in the reverse setting.

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.
