2011 Volkswagen ROUTAN Engine Problems, Complaints and Defects

Issue ID	1205958

Manufacurer	Volkswagen Group of America, Inc.
Brand	VOLKSWAGEN
Model	ROUTAN
Model Year	2011
File date	13/07/15
Component	ENGINE
Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	Vehicle engine would do the extended crank, and not turn over, or would turn over and die instantly, check engine light would flash 10 times. Took vehicle to the dealer to find out that the tipm module had failed, the repair was $1200, and took a week. Chrysler had built the vehicle for volkswagen from their town and country line, however unlike chrysler, volkswagen doesn't honor the recall although the part is physically the same mopar part across the board. Volkswagen also stated they offer no assistance after the base warranty is gone as well. Isn't there some federal mandate that requires these devices to be warranted further than the normal 36,000 miles? I guess it will take someone getting severely injured or killed in one of these vans for volkswagen to open there eyes...

What is Recall?
A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
What is Failure?
Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.
