Description of the problem	The epc light came on many times between 2011 and 2014 and the electronic throttle kicked out of cruise control. Miller vw checked the car july 2011, did not have a solution and cleared the codes. I asked our local mechanic about it in july 2013 who identified that there was a tsb for the throttle body wiring harness. We continued to observe the intermittent epc fault response but experienced no problems. The first major incident occurred 28 june 2014 entering i-89 north when entering traffic the epc and engine fault lights came on and the engine lost all power just as we entered the travel lane. The car went into limp mode and would go no faster than 35 mph i switched off the engine while traveling which reset the throttle fault allowing us to continue traveling. This is a short ramp and there is no shoulder at the end of the ramp. I made an appointment for the car at walker vw to repair the car on 2 july. The service department was unable to make the repairs that day as they did not have all of the required parts on hand. On 22 july my wife was preparing to enter i-91 from route 5 south via a left turn on ramp when the epc and engine fault lights came on and the engine went into limp mode just as she was preparing to turn into the on ramp. A tractor trailer was rapidly overtaking her in that lane in a driving rain and the car would not exceed 20 mph. She turned on the flashers and the overtaking trucker veered into the right lane avoiding collision. I then made an appointment with our local car repair shop and trusted mechanic at kingdom imports. They ordered the parts and installed the replacement wiring iaw the tsb on 29 july 2014. Even after ordering two complete sets of parts vw did not include the shrink tape required to stabilize the wiring. Vw has chosen the worst solution and should issue a recall and install a purpose built wiring harness.
