 Description of the problemOn 2 july 2018 i received notice of the fuel pump ecm recall. I immediately went to my local dealer and had the recall work performed - replacement of the ecm, relocation of the ecm from top of pump to rear right wheel well. On 7 july 2018, i folded the rear seat down to expand the cargo area of the vehicle. On 15 july 2018, i returned the rear seat to seating position. Later that day, the fuel pump failed while driving. Took to nearest dealer who charged $140 diag fee to tell me the fuel pump was bad - well, duh! The issue correlates to the ecm being recently traded out. The fuel pump itself was replaced 3 months earlier. They didn't notice the coincidence. Vwusa merely played a game of operator between me and the dealer and was totally impotent and unwilling to intervene. It was their recall work that killed my fuel pump and now i need to pay for another pump? Never mind invalid diagnostics and fees, and time lost.
