Unsatisfactory resolution to NHTSA recall no.: 16V-913 https://static.NHTSA.gov/ODI/rcl/2016/rclrpt-16V913-3524.pdf the proposed resolution to this recall is unsatisfactory. How can is it assured that if a module passes the load test the pcu ground connection will not fail at a future time? the failure reportedly occurs just when the ABS/esp/steering system is needed most to maintain vehicle control. If this was a known manufacturing defect and the ABS control module was replaced by an updated module with proper soldering then all vehicles produced with this manufacturing defect should receive an updated module.
The contact owns a 2009 Volkswagen Jetta. The contact stated that while driving at various speeds, she noticed that the ABS warning light was illuminated. The vehicle then stalled by independently shifting to neutral without warning. The contact had to wait several minutes in order to restart the vehicle. The vehicle was taken to a dealer for diagnosis where they advised her that the ABS module failed and needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was contacted and they offered no assistance. The failure and current mileages were approximately 48,500. Mailed out 3/10/15 updated 03/31/15
