Jetta

  • 24,000 miles
The contact owns a 2006 Volkswagen Jetta. While driving between 1-30 mph, shifting from 3rd to 2nd gear, the vehicle shut off. The failure only occurs when the air conditioning is turned on high. The contact stated that the failure has been occurring for the last three years. She feels it is a safety issue because it puts her at risk of crashing the vehicle. The vehicle was taken to a shop on four occasions. The first three times the mechanic was unable to determine the cause of the failure. After the most recent failure, the mechanic determined a possible cause of the failure. The current and failure mileages were 24,000.
