2006 VW Jetta TDI/Failure to honor warranty!

Volkswagen of America, North East United States, New Jersey

Hello,

My name is Ajay Patel and I have become a serious victim of fraud by VW of America. My brand new car broke down on the highway, with what is clearly a mechanical failure and should have been covered under warranty. However, the dealer diagnoses as “driver error” and insisted that I am responsible for the repairs! I am a Mechanical Engineer and truly understand mechanical systems, and the failure of parts. This incident occurred as I was driving on the highway, and could have lead to my death. I therefore moved the car to a 3rd party dealer and upon inspection of the parts it was CLEAR that parts within the car FAILED COMPLETELY.

I am pleading with anyone that I can find to aid me. I am now almost 2 weeks without a vehicle and it is difficult for me to work. Please help me, I have been severely wronged by VW. I have pictures of everything to verify my case, and I have kept copious notes. Please help me, PLEASE!

Best regards,

Ajay Patel

My daughters 2005 Jetta had the timing belt and parts replaced at 40K but just missed the 5yr warrenty by less than 50 days. The dealer wouldn't tell her when the car was sold and refused to contact VW for any assistance. VW took 2 letters before we found the in service date. We were hoping for a break on the 1800 dollar bill. Even VW warrenty rates would of been better than what we had to pay. VW is JUNK Stick with hundyai. They have 100K power train waarenty

I feel for you Mr. Patel I also own a VW Jetta 2006 I am the 2nd owner and alot of electrical problems plus air bags not working have not got help from VW at all and the VW dealer Kempthorn will not service my car. Try to contact the Attorney General if you have not. I am still working on options. We are not alone I have seen many complaints concerning this car and VW is not standing behind the product
