| Description of the problem | My 2019 rabbit edition gti 6-speed manual stalls when it's stationary at a stop sign or a stoplight with the clutch fully pressed in. It happens while in 1st gear and if the car is in neutral. The car also fails to turn on after stalling sometimes and immediately shuts off after restarting. My car has stalled 5 times while in bumper to bumper traffic. This vehicle is brand new and can be a safety issue if it's not fixed. I have contacted volkswagen but they're unable to replicate the issue. This is an issue a lot of customers with the brand new 2019 rabbit edition gti's are having and needs to be addressed. Here is a link to the forums of evidence that it as happened to multiple vehicles: https://www. Golfmk7. Com/forums/showthread. Php? P=778941 |
