| Description of the problem | Volkswagen has chrysler make these mini vans. Chrysler recalled the tipm module/relay box but volkswagen has not. Its a faulty part that needs to be recalled. The car will some times not stat. Sometimes the fuel pump will run and drain the battery but the most dangerous of all is that it will stall going from an idle to giving it gas. Like pulling out into a busy street. And then take a minute to get it started again. Very dangerous. It seems like it might take a death to get vw to recall the part that chrysler already did the recall on. |
