While driving my VW Cabrio home last night the highlights, dash lights, heater fan and radio all suddenly went off and the ABS failure light came on. I pulled the car off the road and the lights suddenly came back on and I was able to drive the last few miles home. I spoke to a service manager at VW today about this problem and it turns out it is an electrical part associated with the cars ignition switch and that it is well known and common failure with this car. I called VW head quarters and spoke to a customer advocate about this and they told me there was no recall and that VW had not considered this to be a safety problem that warranted a recall.
