Description of the problem | I was driving on my way to take my children to school when the vehicle started to shake and sputter and it stalled out just before i was going to drive through a busy intersection. I put the car in park and turned it on and it started to sputter as i put it in drive and depressed the gas pedal the car would not move. I turned off the car twice until it started up again and i was able to drive just down the street to a safe place. The car started to shake it started to smell funny. I had the vehicle towed to the dealership where diagnostics were run and test drove however the vw dealership said there was nothing wrong with the car. I do have to add that the batter light came on but everything else on the vehicle dashboard was functioning. This is the 2nd time this has happened and i've only had the vehicle for a year. |
