Description of the problem	While on 4 lane road at 50 mph the car just stopped running. Battery light came on and no power to steering or braking. I was able to pull over without to much incidence. Vw sent notice in october regarding recall and now say "pending" recall since they don't have a determined fix just yet. 3 months and still no idea how to fix??? I paid my local shop $975. 00 as they knew how to fix right away. Simply replace the fuel pump. And now i simply wish to be reimbursed so i can spend that on other needed repairs. Vw founded in 1937, made cars for 80 years now, and they can't figure out how to repair a fuel pump in 3 months??? That removes any confidence anyone should have in owning a vw of any model.
