Engine stalls, on starting from stop, sometimes when going down hill, or over a bump in the road. Seems to stall when RPM goes below 750. Commonly stalls in intersection, resulting in dangerous situation while one restarts car. Complained to dealer, but they were unable to fix problem. This is a recurring problem with stalls daily to once every several days. Has been doing it since I purchased the car.
The contact owns 2010 Volkswagen Golf. The contact stated that when braking to a complete stop, the vehicle would stall without warning. The contact experienced the failure twice. The vehicle was not repaired. There is an active investigation into the fuel system, which deals the this stalling issue with the diesel on the 2009 jetta, and that the 2010 model year has the same engine. The defect campaign number is PE10034. The failure mileage was 13,000 and the current mileage was 18,800.
