When driving, my 09 Rabbit, the power staring light will flash yellow to red and then stay red, I'm jerked to the side, right and left. On some occasions when making a right turn, it feels as though I'm being shot forward, I have a terrible wobble and when this happens I cannot accelerate over 45 without the car sounding like a helicopter, my ac and ABS light will flash on then off sporadically. My transmission slips periodically and this happens regardless if I'm on the highway or city streets. I have been to four mechanics, I've had the right front axle replaced, tires rotated and balanced, a new battery and a front end alignment. Luckily the last mechanic I took the car to hooked it up to his machine and got codes for the electronic stability control malfunction and ABS module malfunction. I have checked the recall site and both modules have been recalled for my make, model and year, however my VIN is not included

After driving at approx. 70- 80 mph on highway for over 1 hour and stopping would feel off after coming to an a complete stop from traffic or exiting the freeway, and then the car had trouble revving up - couldn't accelerate and difficult to drive as it would be hard to get up to even 30 mph - seemed to go into a false neutral. First few times it would return to normal if I turned off the engine for 15 minutes. The last time it happened, it happened twice in one day and would only go back to normal if engine was off for a couple of hours. Happened about a couple of handful of times in the course of a couple of years - each time was frightening and almost got into bad accidents. First time it happened I was at about 40,000 miles. Last time it happened, I was at about 76,000 miles. Dealership was unable to replicate the issue or find any apparent problems when servicing the vehicle. Not a turbo vehicle so they told me not dsg or mechatronic issues. Basically, drive at your own risk.
