Description of the problem	We purchased this vehicle used in august 2018. The first long distance trip the transmission quit working on pa i-76. My family could have been killed as the van shifted eradically, stalled while in motion, and stopped shifting all together. We took the vehicle back to where we purchased it. They sent it to the transmission place that originally did the transmission work. They replaced a defective part. Ever since the repair the van shifts hard and at odd times. Three weeks ago it began leaking transmission fluid and began to shift erratically again. No indicator lights illuminated. We had it towed to the transmission shop again they said it was our breaks, we had it towed to our mechanic, it's not the breaks. It is again at the transmission shop. This has cost us time, money and our safety. What will it take for vw to issue a recall on this van- who has to die for anything to be resolved.
