I pulled off the highway and was turning around. The car suddenly stalled while driving, bucked and then would not go into gear. I took it to the dealership and they said the transmission needs to be replaced. My hybrid has a dsq transmission that is so faulty, vw has extended the warranty on this part in every country but the us! I call vw customer care. They could not answer my questions regarding the dsq transmission and its well documented issues and why vw of america is not addressing these issues in its hybrids. The 7 gear dsq transmission is only used in the hybrid in the us and the vw hybrid is not a big seller in the us so there is less reported information for this issue. However, many hybrid owners in the us have had this problem and vw is aware of it. There should be a recall or an warranty extension issued like other countries for this part. Thank you.,

I was driving on the highway and the car stopped moving. It was a transmission issue with the gear box. The same recall that the volkswagen has but when I look up my VIN it doesn't come. However I had the same issue happen as the one described in the recall. I replaced the transmission but the car is still jerking around a lot. I want volkswagen to take care of that.
