| Description of the problem | Abs, esc indicator lights came on driving at highway speed, and with brake indicator flashing and audible sound. Diagnosed at capistrano vw as failure of abs control module. Repair declined due to $2,500 cost, but the circumstances indicate this should be covered in safety recall 45f2, nhtsa campaign 16v913 (although vin not indicated as part of recall according to nhtsa records). Will follow up with dealership. Nhtsa should note other similar complaints to cause manufacturer to expand number of affected vehicles. Vw's response appears to be inadequate so far. |
