I WAS OFFERED TO RETURN MY CAR FROM A LEASE WITH 7 MONTHS LEFT, THROUGH THE VW EARLY BUYBACK PROMOTION. THIS IS WHEN I WAS TOLD THAT MY VEHICLE WAS SUBJECT TO A DANGEROUS RECALL, WHICH COULD CAUSE DEATH, AND THAT NO FIX WAS AVAILABLE FOR IT AT THIS TIME. I AM EXTREMELY UPSET ABOUT THIS REPORT AND VW BRUSHED MY COMPLAINT BY SAYING THAT I ONLY HAD 7 MONTHS LEFT TO PAY AND I COULD RETURN THE VEHICLE. I FEEL THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE RESPONSE AND AM NOT COMFORTABLE WITH DRIVING CAR ANYMORE.

TAKATA AIR BAG RECALL WE WERE INFORMED ON MAY 20, 2016 ABOUT THE KNOWN RECALL FOR THE TAKATA AIRBAG FOR OUR CAR BY OUR SERVICE TECHNICIAN AT THE VOLKSWAGEN DEALERSHIP. IT IS NOVEMBER 6, 2016 AND WE HAVE HEARD NOTHING FROM THE MANUFACTURER OR THE DEALERSHIP REGARDING THE SOLUTION TO THE PROBLEM

TWICE, ON MAY 12 AND ON OCTOBER 22, WHILE IN A PARKING LOT AND PULLING INTO A VERTICAL PARKING SPOT AT VERY LOW SPEED, I TAPPED THE ACCELERATOR, AND SUDDENLY THE CAR RAPIDLY SPED UP. I WAS UNABLE TO STOP IT WITH THE BRAKE PEDAL, AND I HIT A BRICK PLANTER THE FIRST TIME IT HAPPENED, AND I HIT THE POST HOLDING UP THE FRONT OF A BUILDING THE SECOND TIME. THE BRAKE PEDAL ON THE PASSAT IS APPROXIMATELY 3" WIDE AND LOCATED ONLY AN INCH OR SO FROM THE ACCELERATOR. IT IS POSSIBLE THAT I HIT BOTH PEDALS WHILE TRYING TO STOP THE VEHICLE, BUT THAT DOES NOT EXPLAIN THE SUDDEN ACCELERATION THAT CAUSED THE CAR TO JUMP THE CURB AND HIT THE PLANTER AND THE BUILDING. FRIGHTENING SITUATION. I WASN'T INJURED THE FIRST TIME BUT WAS FAIRLY WELL SHAKEN UP THE SECOND. THE BODY SHOP SAID THE DAMAGE TO THE VEHICLE WAS ALMOST EXACTLY THE SAME EACH TIME. I TOOK THE CAR TO T HE VW DEALER AFTER THE FIRST ACCIDENT, BUT THEY SAID THERE WAS NOTHING WRONG.
