Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: I own a 2002 vw jetta tdi. three times now i have had a serious incident with my brakes. while driving at low speeds, under 25 mph, the brake pedal has pulled itself to the floor and sharply applied the brakes while i was driving. my foot was on the accelerator while this occurred. there is also a loud pressure release sound coming from the brake pedal after it applied itself. this happens intermittently and the dealer has not been able to correct it yet. *jb
