The epc light came on while driving. The car suddenly lost power, I kept having to take my foot off the gas, and then reapply, it eventually got up to a decent speed on the interstate, then suddenly lost all power regardless of what I did. Was almost hit by an 18 wheeler. This is the most dangerous and ridiculous thing to build a car that tells it to shut off when it first senses a problem. You guys almost cost me my life!!! This is the first vw I've ever owned and was told I would love it. Well, I've had it for 2 day's and I can tell you it won't stay around long if this continues to be a problem. Once I managed to get pulled over I shut the car off waited a min or so and restarted it. The light went off and the car drove like nothing ever happened. I have two small boys and this is a big concern for me. I've read post after post about this being an issue, there has to be something vw can figure out as to what is the main cause, and surely there should be a bypass to keep the car from just shutting off while driving.

I was in motion at speed over 60 on the highway and lost control of my vehicle. The only reason I didn't crash was because there was no traffic. It suddenly slows down and stops. No control in gas pedal. I took my car to the cerritos dearlership and was told my car was out of warranty. I took it to another dealer to fix and it was over $2000. It was fuel pump control module. My daughter had the same car and issue but she traded her car for another brand.

I received information dated october 2017 from volkswagen of america, inc. 3800 hamlin road auburn hills, mi 48326 with a recall notice for my vehicle the federal safety agency: 17v509 stating 'under specific operating conditions, an interruption in the electrical power supply to the fuel pump control module can result in fuel pump failure and lead to a loss of vehicle motive power while driving (vehicle stall). This condition can also cause the fuel pump to run continuously, resulting in a drained vehicle battery and/or a no-start condition.' this means an engine can stall while driving and can increase the risk of a vehicle crash. This is very alarming to me, and I am concerned about my safety along with my infant son who is a passenger in my car daily. I have called 2 local vw dealerships (dorschel & ide volkswagen) in rochester, ny and have been notified multiple times that there is 'no fix' at the moment. I owe over $10,000 on this vehicle currently and have limited income so I have no choice but to keep this vehicle and drive it. I have had multiple issues with this car and several recalls. I have put over $2,200 in repairs on this car in the last 4 months for defective sensors and wiring. This new recall can directly cause a deadly accident and I am at a lost for words!

There have been several problems with this car. The electrical power to the fuel pump has been feeling as though it is shutting off. When I first got the car, it stalled twice on me, while I was driving on a public road. The tires have balded or warn quickly. Engine leaks oil often. The fuel not getting to the pump has been overwhelmingly often.

Brake light wires in the truck are fraying because the wire coating is too stiff and frays when the truck is opened multiple times. This is a fire and safety issue. This is on my 2009 volkswagen passat cc. I do not see a recall on this.
