Description of the problem	Was driving on a freeway with a baby when the car will not move forward while running at 60mph. Very dangerous especially with a baby. The car was also backing up if we do not step on the handbrake. The previous day brought the car to the dealer because i told them that the car will not move even if i step on the gas and the engine light is on. Also told them to check thoroughly because i am going on a roadtrip. They called and said the car does not have a problem. I found out that volkswagen has an issue with transmission. Service center should have look into this being that it is common problem with volkswagen before releasing the car. Also when i called their roadside assistance they said that the nearest dealer will not take our car because we need an appointment. ( for an emergency) what do we do, i even told them we have a baby with us and we are in a busy freeway. We had to call again and tell them the situation. Then the dealer helped us. Called volkswagen customer service on 9/06 told a guy named[xxx]. About their warranty and said talk it out with the dealer, dealers are a private owned company. Who do we then bring the car for repair for cars under warranty? When i called their customer service seems like transmission issue is not something important but not for somebody like me who drives with a baby it is very important.
