Description of the problem	On a tuesday or wednesday in early june 2017, i was accelerating from about 20 miles/h to 40 miles/hour on braddock road eastbound while on its bridge crossing the capital beltway (i-495 in va) when the vehicle suddenly jolted forward. No other indicators went on at the time, but the check engine light illuminated the next time i started the vehicle. I took the vehicle to vw of fredericksburg (va) for diagnosis and repair. At the time, it was on its first replacement low pressure fuel pump/control module set that was installed at priority vw of chester, va, in late september 2014. Replication of the june 2017 problem took just a day in the shop, but diagnosing the core issue and replacing the associated parts took another 5 weeks. The fuel pump and control module had to be replaced under another recall, plus a portion of the 1st replacement fuel pump lodged in the fuel line running from the fuel tank to the engine. That required replacement of several fuel lines and associated fuel system components. The relevant portion of the final bill totaled over $2000. The $470 portion covering the low pressure fuel pump and its control module were taken care of by vw of america, but the $1500-1600 portion covering the rest of the fueling system was not.
