Jetta

  • 3,500 miles
Traveling 30 mph. Battery light luminated and engine stalled. Pulled over and restarted engine and it started fine battery light turned off. Took it to the dealer and they replaced a relay. One week later driving on the freeway at 75mph engine stalled again in heavy traffic. Started right back. Drove another 10 miles and it shut off again. Started up and drove it right to the dealer. This is very dangerous. The check engine light is on now. The 2011 Jetta was issued a recall, and that repair was done a month ago.
