Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: The ignition coils on my 2001 v6 volkswagen jetta failed. while volkswagen had announced a recall on all v6 2001 jettas, my car's vin was for some reason not included in the recall. i spent $845 fixing the problem and subsequently had to change the ignition wire set - something that was brought on by the failure of the coils. the car was very unstable and i was very scared to even drive it until my appointment with the auto mechanic. *jb
