| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: While i drove car the clutch started to slip in 2004 jetta. i took it to heritage volkswagen in union city georgia, and they said that they adjusted the clutch. the clutch still slips. if i pull out in front of a car and need to get out of the way the car does not go because the clutch slips. this is extremely dangerous. thousands of others have the same problem. the problem is still not fixed by the dealer. they say that the clutch is error on the driver. this cannot be because the clutch with the engine can only handle 8 more feet-lbs than the engine produces. if the engine, therefore, produces a couple more horse power for whatever reason the clutch slips. im not talking about any modifications to the car i am talking about every stock car will vary in hp and torque even though they say they are all the same. this is ridiculous, and now am scared to drive my car longer than 30 minutes for fear that the clutch will slip and i will get hit from behind and die. *ak |
