Description of the problem	On december 8, 2016 we purchased a 2013 vw jetta hybrid with extended warranty. Within 3 months it was losing power, jumpy and not driving correctly. This was for my 16 year old son. It would lose complete power on the street. Not ideal for a brand new driver. Towed it to dealer, told needed new transmission. Four weeks later we finally got car back. Still noticed a jumpy feeling when driving but assumed dealer fixed correctly. In november 2017 same thing happened, loss of power, jumpy, not safe at all. Towed in to dealer again and they said vehicle needed repairs of 12k and not covered by warranty. I could not pay that nor could i not understand why it wasn't covered??? Dealer said car was undriveable and they gave us 500. 00. I still owe 11k on the loan. Please help, i am just sick about the way i was treated and the debt i incurred for no reason. I really feel like this was a lemon.
