Description of the problem | 2006 vw rabbit, 2. 5l, 5 cyl. Has been stalling intermittently while idling, over and over again since buying this car brand new in 2006. I prefer not to give my vin # for confidentiality reasons. I have read numerous posts on forums online, including vw employees who own the car and claim vw of america is pretending like they don't know of such an issue when it has occurred many times. My car has been to the dealer many times and they say its fine, well i don't think it is and i have 2 little kids that ride in this car on a daily basis. |
