THE CAR LOST POWER ON A CITY STREET AT ABOUT 40 MPH THEN MY SON COULDN'T STEER OR BRAKE. ALL DASH LIGHTS WERE FLASHING SO WE HAVE NO IDEA WHAT IS REALLY WRONG. TRYING TO GET OFF OF THE ROAD HE WENT INTO A DITCH. THE RADIATOR WAS BUSTED/LEAKING SO HE HAD TO GET HIS STEP FATHER TO COME GET IT. I CANNOT AFFORD THE RADIATOR TO GET IT FIXED AT THIS TIME DUE TO THE NOTE ON IT. IT HAS DONE THIS TO ME IN THE PAST. I NOTICED THE ODD WHINING SOUND IT MAKES WHEN CRANKED WAS WORSE THE DAY IT HAPPENED TO ME. I WAS ON THE HIGHWAY AT 55MPH SO I STOPPED AND ABOUT 10 MINUTES LATER CRANKED IT AND IT MADE IT HOME. WE HAD IT CHECKED FOR CODES AND IT SHOWED NO PROBLEM CODES. *TR

I HAVE A 2017VW JETTA WHICH SUDDENLY 'LOCKS' AS I AM DRIVING. MY CAR SUDDENLY STARTS REDUCING SPEED AND THE BREAKS BECOME STIFF. I SEE SEVERAL LIGHTS FLASH ON THE DASHBOARD, SUCH AS THE EPC LIGHT, TIRE WARNING LIGHTS, AND MOTOR LIGHT. AFTER THE MATTER, IF I WANT TO START THE VEHICLE AGAIN, THE BREAK AND SHIFT STICK BECOME STIFF AND I CAN'T START THE IGNITION. I RECALL THIS HAPPENING TO ME ONE YEAR AFTER BUYING THE VEHICLE BUT ALL I DID WAS TURN OFF THE CAR AND THE LIGHTS WENT AWAY. I WAS ABLE TO DRIVE MY CAR WITHOUT THAT HAPPENING FOR A YEAR OR SO AND IT HAPPENED AGAIN. SAME THING, I WOULD HAVE TO PULL OVER, TURN THE VEHICLE OFF AND WAIT FOR ABOUT 20-30 MIN FOR THE VEHICLE TO START. YESTERDAY THIS HAPPENED TO ME WHILE DRIVING TO WORK. I WAS DRIVING ABOUT 70MPH ON THE FREEWAY AND I NOTICED MY STEERING WHEEL BECAME STIFF AND MY CAR STARTED REDUCING SPEED ON ITS OWN. I NO LONGER HAD CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE FORCING ME TO PULL OVER ON THE SIDE OF THE FREEWAY AT A VERY LOW SPEED ALMOST CAUSING AN ACCIDENT. I HAD TO WAIT ABOUT 15 MIN FOR MY CAR TO START AND WAS ABLE TO GET DOWN OF THE FREEWAY BUT IT KEPT ON HAPPENING ON MY WAY HOME AND I HAD TO PULL OVER ABOUT 6 TIMES WAITING 10-15MIN EACH TIME FOR MY CAR TO START. I SCHEDULED A SERVICE APPOINTMENT WITH MY LOCAL DEALERSHIP SO THEY CAN TAKE A LOOK AT IT AND HOPEFULLY FIX THIS PROBLEM. I BELIEVE THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE THAT NEEDS TO GET ADDRESSED IMMEDIATELY. *TR

I JUST BOUGHT A USED 2017 VOLKSWAGEN JETTA GLI A MONTH AGO, AND THE AIRBAG LIGHT JUST ILLUMINATED THIS PAST FRIDAY, ALONG WITH NO STEERING WHEEL CONTROLS WORKING, AND NO HORN. I CALLED THE PLACE WHERE I PURCHASED IT FROM, AND THEY PRETTY MUCH SAID OH WELL. THIS IS A SAFETY CONCERN, AS IT AFFECTS THE AIRBAG. IS THERE ANYTHING I CAN DO?
