| Description of the problem | Wireless ignition node (win) does not work properly. Car started as normal, but all inside car not working. Wipers, dash lighting, gauges, warning lights, radio, interior lighting, and i would assume safety items such as airbags... Nothing inside vehicle worked, yet it remained running. Upon returning home later in the day, car drove as expected and all other features were working, however van now cannot be shut off. Wireless ignition node is now stuck in the run position. Due to it being stuck in the run position, locks, alarm, do not work. The key fob also does not stay locked in the win as it should while the vehicle is on. It can just fall out. This part is recalled on these vw routan vehicles manufactured up to june of 2010... My vehicle was manufactured in july of 2010. It seems to me, that i am having very similar issues that i consider significant safety issues. The original recall is from mar 01, 2011 nhtsa campaign id number: 11v151000. According to vw, my vin does not fall under this recall. It should! Please look into adding it. Thank you |
