Jetta 6-cyl

  • 160,000 miles
1999.5 Volkswagen Jetta gls VR6, always getting dtc codes of P1117, P0140, P1198, P1472, P1435, P0102, P0343, P1421.. that always says about open or short circuit conditions and poor electrical connections, and short to grounds for electrical, which is all electrical problems, if you search online them codes you will see numerous people with the same problems, and as well as alot of us have to buy the parts that is listed and problems still aren't fixed, which tells us its an electrical issue, not issues with the parts, which causes our #43 fuse blow alot, and alot of hesitation and stalling, I cant even turn around a corner or to get off the highway without stalling, please fix these problems, its happening to way to many of us and it is also an safety issue.
