Description of the problem	Twice now, a single ignition coil has failed on my 2002 vw jetta 1. 8t this results in immediate failure of the car to have sufficient driving power, preventing the car from being driven any further. The company has not recalled them _yet_ however thousands of us are having the same problem. My biggest comliant is that they will only fix one coil at a time, virtually guaranteeing that we will be stranded 2 more times in the next few weeks.
