Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: To make this short this link tells the whole story in detail about what has been going on with my car. http://forums.vwvortex.com/zerothread?id=1941470 currently my car is stalling randomly almost every time i drive it. vw of america tells me to take it up with my local dealership service dept. which i have been for 2 years. the dealership keeps giving it back to me unfixed but still replacing parts! the dangerous part of this is the steering locks up when the car dies and i'ts still moving. i am fearful of driving it and i haven't gotten anywhere with vw. if you go to the link above and read the thread you will see that i am not alone and that it seems to be the same particular year and engine as mine in most replies. please contact me if more details or information is needed. i would like to help find a solution before any serious accidents happen or anyone is hurt. thank you, dave werbeck
