| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: Last summer the fuel pump failed on the highway on my 2003 volkswagen passat vin #[xxx]. the car was towed to vw and the fuel pump was replaced. during a search on the internet for recalls i noticed that there was a recall for the fuel pump on the car. when i looked deeper into the recall i found that my car is barely out of the vin # recall range. i have also found that this is a large problem with other people being barely out of recall range. i think that the vin # recall range is obviously short of what it should be since so many people are having this issue.. this is not normal wear and tear. vwoa was not willing to help in this matter and i thought i should report it...*nm updated 07/11/2012 *js information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6) |
