| Description of the problem | The car will stall while in neutral or with the clutch fully depressed in 1st gear when slowing to a stop. It happened in a parking lot while coasting in neutral to a stop. It then happened three more times in stop and go traffic. It seems to happen randomly; there is nothing specifically that seems to trigger it or prevent it. The car will simply cut out and die while out of gear and slowing to a stop below 10mph. Clearly stalling randomly in traffic is a safety concern for myself and those around me and volkswagen needs to address it. |
