Description of the problem	Received a hybrid system error on 01/02/2018 while driving to work just within my neighborhood, then it disappeared and i noticed the gas mileage was getting way out of control (usually get 50/gal, then got less than 30/gal). I knew something was off especially since i have been asking the dealer to check the transmission at 53k (had a previous jetta with transmission issues). After keeping my car for a month, the dealer put in a clutch only to call back to say they now needed a full transmission and it would have to be inspected and tested by the warrant company. Another 15 days and the transmission was finally added. The transmission has been fixed but the gas millage has not been restored. Called the dealer and said that i am bringing it back at the end of the week. After have both a regular 2009 and a 2013 jetta hybrid with the same issue, i no longer want anything to do with vw vehicles.
