problem #2

Tiguan

The car will suddenly shut off while slowing down or coming to a stop. The -€œstart/stop-€ error message is displayed and the car displays to -€œmanually restart car-€. At first this happened only sporadically, but now this is happening while on the highway in traffic or while turning in an intersection. Today it has happened 5 times. Our car only has 10,000 miles and has had problems from the beginning. The fuel pump had to be replaced after sitting at the dealership for a MONTH while they tried to fix and unknown -€œEPC-€ error that displayed and completely shut our car off while driving on the highway-€"not coming to a stop.

I have to put oil into the engine every 2000 miles. The dealership has run 2 separate oil consumption tests and they claim they are unable to find anything wrong.
