My 2007 vw passat wagon has 3 times on trips longer than 4 hours in 0 degree weather started chugging and shaking on the highway. Each time has been worse and lasted longer. The first time a call to a vw dealer said it was the gas cap and it would be ok. The second time a subaru mechanic diagnosed misfiring and a bad coil so I took it to a vw dealer who said there was nothing they could find wrong to fix. The third time I was nearly stranded on a remote highway. I eventually got home to my private mechanic who agreed it was misfiring and a bad coil and will fix it.
2007 Volkswagen Passat fuel system complaints
Page 3 of 3: complaints 41 to 42 of 42, newest first, as owners wrote them.
My car stopped working while I was driving on the interstate with my five year old son. We were lucky I was able to pull over without incident. The car was towed to the dealer. The fuel pump was replaced about two weeks ago, the car was only 4 months old and has only about 2500 miles, and apparently they installed it incorrectly or itwas faulty. They claimed that I ran out of gas, although the gauge read that I had half a tank.
