"takata recall" recently while I was driving on the highway, I slowed down to stop at a stop light but when the light turned green I proceeded to drive and my car was stalling and almost got hit from behind by an 18 wheeler. Now im afraid to drive my own car something needs to be done about this.

A heavy jerk and bag when the transmission shifts between 1st-3rd gears. Transmission disengages while moving but particularly in stop and go traffic. Vehicle needs to be completely shut down and restarted in order for the transmission to become fully operational again. There is also a hesitation or time lag when shifting from park to reverse before the transmission engages. The vehicle has an automatic dsg transmission. I am not the only owner of a 2010 cc that has been experiencing this problem. I contacted the vehicle manufacturer and I was told that the company's position was to do nothing. This vehicle has 2-3 other recalls on it as well. This is a mechanic issue that can occur at any moment and possess potential hazards when in motion in any driving condition (highway or street). I was told by dealership repair center that the car requires a brand new transmission costing upwards of $5,000. As stated this is a manufacturing issue and research indicates that many other owners of this type of vehicle have had the same mechanical issue with the end result of having to replace the transmission. You ask when this happened, however, it is not a particular date but continuous.

Car has repeatedly had issues shifting into the proper gear. When attempting to shift into reverse, a loud clunking can be heard and the car suddenly switches to neutral without being able to engage any gears thereafter without the car first being restarted entirely. After researching and reaching out to vw of america, it seems many other owners of vws with the same transmission have had similar issues, some of which have been recalled previously by vw, including 2010 vw ccs similar to mine. Vw of american has failed to see my car should fall within the parameters of the already issued recall and has advised me to file a report here. I am concerned this issue will potentially cause a failure at highway speeds and could be life threatening. Thank you.

Dsg transmission: the car has been "slipping" while driving, will slip into neutral and fail on the highway. When stationary, sometimes won't go in reverse, just flashes r, when I put it in reverse. Can turn it off, turn it back on and it'll run ok. Vw has extended warranty on 2010 dsg, but is not covering my VIN.

The engine light is on in my vehicle and I found out there is an unexpected mechanical gear disengagement (trouble code p2711). The dealership quoted $2,400 suggesting me to replace clutch packs, after I spent $140 simply for diagnosis. I saw that vw used to provide a safety recall and extended warranty for dsg transmission for certain models in 2007 to 2010. I also found online that there are many reported dsg-related failures. I, just as many vw owners do, have experienced delays at shift points, causing erratic shifting, jerking, long stall pauses, clutch slipping, surging in forward and reverse, etc. While the car is either accelerating, passing or cruising. However, my 2010 vw cc (55k mileage) is not under this extended warranty. I think it's very ridiculous, since I've taken good care of my vehicle, but have already experienced 3 safety recall (including takata recall and fuel pump recall), and this time they refuse to reimburse my costs incurred by their commonly-known dangerous transmission failure. I'm already hugely influenced by this model's safety recalls, and don't want to pay $2400 for their design defects. Even if I repair it at my own expense, it's hard to say such a bad transmission will not cause other danger or trouble in the future. If this is the same dsg transmission that's reported to be troublesome, their warranty/recall should be fairly provided to all influenced vehicles. Thank you for your time!

After coming to a stop, when foot is removed from the brake, the car dangerously lurches forward, sometimes several times before normal driving can continue. This problem was documented by vw and they extended the warranty/fix up to 10 years/100,000 for some vehicles (appears manufactured up to 2009?). They would not cover this vehicle under the special extended warranty.
