I was traveling down a road and my brake gave out, when i had it towed to the dealership they said the inside of the brake vacuume exploded"??" I was driving with my daughter and we could not stop. I have never had brake issues with this car and we almost ended up being smashed in an intersection going downhill with no brakes I wrote to VW CEO and he never responded. They made me pay for this when it was not fair.

The rotors seem to be grabbing when stopping. I bought the car with almost 13000 miles on it and it started shortly there after. I think that is too soon for this sort of thing to begin.
