Description of the problem	I currently own a 2014 vw passat tdi that was part of the recall and due to the fact these vehicles have sat around a long period of time they extended certain other parts warranty. In february i had the heater core replaced twice. Over the summer there was no need for heat and i just turned the heat on this morning and the vehicle is blowing cold air again. I am less than 1000 miles outside the extended warranty and vw refuses to repair. This issue could have started well within the mileage restraints but due to warm weather there was no need for heat. This problem was already established and documented and vw should replace. I will be left out in the cold all winter

What is Recall?
A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
What is Failure?
Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.
What is Defect?
Non-conformance of a car component with the specified requirements, or non-fulfillment of user expectations, including the safety aspects.
