This problem may be covered under warranty. Ask your Volkswagen dealer.
Fuel pump died in our new (4 months old) Jetta while on the road, 300 miles from home. VW did fix the problem (after a week of diagnosis/repair), but we had to drive the 300 miles again to pick up the car. VW has not been very helpful. I expected much better from a new car.

On family vacation and the car started to jolt and hesitate on I-80 in western Iowa. Managed to get a hold of Baxter VW in Omaha and limped the car into the dealership. They confirmed I had a failing fuel pump. They ordered a new fuel pump and installed it - the entire repair took a couple of business days. Not great for a car with 10000~ miles and only owned for a month at the time...
