While driving the car the car shut off causing an issue with the steering and brakes. This is the second time this has happened. in trying to duplicate the issue, with the car in park and running we were able to duplicate it by wiggling the key fob while it is in the switch. We were able to do this 3x. We search out a recall notice for our year, make and model related to this issue. When we called our VW dealer we were informed that our vehicle does not have any open recalls. We contacted VW customer service and we were told the same. Our particular VIN was built in the middle of recalls related to this exact issue and no previous repairs were done. The customer service Rep could not see a reason why ours is not covered but that they go strictly by the VIN. Our vehicle was built 03/2010 a

The key slips out of the on position and the electronic system does not engage. I thought my vehicle was part of the recall issued by vw in 2015 (part 573 safety recall), but when I took it to the dealer to be diagnosed and repaired, I was informed that this recall is VIN specific and my VIN was not a part of the recall and therefore the repair would not be covered by vw.

I bought this van just a few weeks ago. One day I was driving and all a sudden it lost power while in motion. This has happened 4xs so far. It could've resulted in the inability to stop my vehicle as the brakes are stiff after the power & engine stop working. It could've resulted in either I hit someone or someone could've hit me. My cousins husband had a town and country that did this & it was on a recall for the ignition switch failure. He's a mechanic. He has also stated what is going on is the ignition switch failure going into accessory mode while I'm driving. It's available to be inspected I just don't have the money to have it inspected at this point by a dealership.

My van shut down while driving for the fourth time. I was slowing down to a stop at a light and the engine lost power and I lost power steering and brakes. This has been happening much more frequently now than before (with 3 times in the last month). My van is not included in win module recall as the VIN is a couple of digits off. This is very frustrating and scary.

Front driver side tire rapidly deflated causing the vehicle to pull right into on coming traffic. The near miss could have been fatal. Upon investigation it was determined that the cause was corrosion of the TPMS valve. I did a quick internet investigation and learned that the corrosion and resulting tire failure are common incidents. Why haven't these faulty TPMS valves been recalled? This issue will surely result in deaths which I believe is the opposite of what these TPMS sensors are for. *tr

While my 3 year old was entering the vehicle through the side sliding door, she pressed the button to close the door. While the door was closing, she slipped getting her ankle/foot trapped between the door jam and door but over the bracket attaching the front of the door. The door continued to close until it jammed, she fell outside the vehicle while still being trapped. We had to push on the door to try to slowly open it to attempt to free her. After picking her up and reaching under the door to move her foot we were able to free her. The entire time we were trying to free my daughter the door kept making a clicking noise. *tr
