Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: I just found out that there is a recall for vw golf for ignition coil. i had problems with that last year and i took it to a dealer but instead of replacing the coils they replaced my battery and starter... exactly a year after that the same thing happen (this january). i had to get my car towed and took it to a garage cause it was close to my house. my ignition coils had to be replaced. so i was wondering if there is a way i can be reimbursed for what i paid, at least for the parts. the first time this happened i can't believe that they didn't replace the coils at the dealership cause exactly the same thing happened, exactly year after. is there anything i can do? thank you jana. *jb
