Received an ABS Break light flashing on my dash board. Went to the Valley Volkswagen dealer in Staunton, VA and confirmed the ABS Module needs to be replaced.

My ABS system light has been on, but I haven't had the funds to take care of it. I inherited the car after my daughter passed away, so I don't know how long it's been on. I was just told by my mechanic that there was a recall for this very issue. I'm not in a position to pay what they're asking, but it seems like I shouldn't have to since there was a recall for this. I don't know why your website says there are no recalls for my car, but I feel I fall in this category for the ABS recall. I had a woman pull out in front of me and my car's system didn't work
My vehicle shuts off while driving and I see certain lights show up when this happens the I lose the control of the vehicle until it powers back on. I've already ruled out the battery and alternator in the vehicle. I looked up recalls and though there is not one associated with my VIN there are recalls that are very similar to my issue that I have from december 15, 2016. When the vehicles electronics shut of the wheel locks making me unable to turn. When the electronics come back on I regain full mobility.
Abs module has failed. Fuel pump has failed. 3 door lock modules have failed. Radio has failed. Fuel pump issues caused battery drain issues.
Turned on the car one day and the ABS light came on and the emergency brake indicator started flashing on the dash. It lasted for a few days and then went away, but came back again a day later. I took the vehicle in to get it inspected and the anti-lock brake (ABS) control module was faulty and had to be removed and replaced, which cost me over $2000. My complaint is that there is a recall for the same exact problem for the same year, make, and model of my car but a different engine type, therefore, it does not apply to my car (according to the VIN and your website). The recall campaign number that I am referencing is 16v913000. After reading other complaints, it seems I am not alone in my frustrations and that many others are affected by this issue as well.
The antilock brake system control unit is failing during ABS or electronic stability control activation, resulting in a loss of vehicle control and esp light coming on and off randomly.
