 Description of the problemThe major problem occurred shortly after my 30,000 mile check up, when my key got stuck in the ignition, and i could not turn the car off. I am aware this problem dates back to as early as 2012. I immediately contacted vw customer care since i was at approximately 36,400 miles to see if they would assist in replacing this part. In addition, i was charged 153. 63 for the diagnosis. Midday on september 21, 2018, i received a call from customer care denying my claim completely. I am aware that this is an ongoing problem, and should be under a recall status. I was also informed that vw has updated their ignition switch (replaced with an updated model number) so the replacement part will not cause problems. I feel like this was a ploy to get me to go to the vw dealership, so they may continue to profit over their past mistakes. I believe i have paid for something that should be covered under a recall or extended warranty. In addition, i had the battery fail at the 36,000 mile mark as well. I feel that i have had more trouble with this new car than any other car i have owned in the past, and i am not really thrilled as a first time vw owner. *js *js the consumer stated there was a recall issued for this particular failure. Due to the vin, this vehicle was not included on the recall. *js
