My son bought this used car. The STOP ENGINE light came on, got an oil change but the light did not go away. Were told that the oil pressure might be the issue so took it to the mechanic. We were told it was most likely the oil pressure switch. There were multiple codes(cones) and were cleared. The switch was replaced but the engine light's still on & the STOP ENGINE comes on but goes off. It appears it is a gas pump issue that it might be manufacture fault. Is there a recall for this issue on this 2008 Passat" It's my [XXX] 's first car, he saved & bought it but it's dangerous...he got it diagnosed & was told it's a $5,000 job. If it's an oil/gas pump manufacturer issue, is Volkswagen responsible" INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

I had the recall for the fuel pump repaired in August 2018 by the wilmington dealership. I don't believe it was either done right or however they did it did not fix the problem because in October 2018 my car is having the recall problem starting again which is causing gasoline to run out immediately and this time it's worse than before the fumes are now in the vehicle even when the car isn't on. I believe I should have this recall issue repaired again because it should not have only lasted 2 months and needing the fuel pump module to be replaced/repaired again but problem is worse the second time around. Acceleration and stalling is becoming more of an issue again

I'm concerned that there could be an interruption in electrical power to the fuel pump control module. This could result in the fuel pump running continuously, resulting in a drained battery and/or a no start condition, or cause a loss of motive power while the vehicle is in motion, which could increase the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property. In addition, the airbag recall is a great concern. I'm also concerned for any other recalls associated with my Volkswagen. Now that takata has settled the lawsuit, I hope my concerned can be resolved expeditiously.

My 2008 Volkswagen Passat has cut off while driving. There is no warning light, it simply turns off and flashes the battery signal and turns off. The other times no other light is present. Due to this issue, changed out fuel pump, crank position sensor, engine harness, spark plugs, O2 sensor, and oil change. Issue still persists. I almost got hit by a semi truck when it cut off. There is no check engine light present at all. The battery is good. It's as if I'm driving and the fuel cuts off. I already changed the fuel pump and engine harness, don't know what else could cause this. Big safety issue as car gives no warning and just turns off while on highway or when coming to a stop sign while the car is in motion.

On 9/19/2017 while driving on the freeway coming home from soccer practice the headliner came apart from the roof causing rear visibility issues. We contacted VW customer care and they will not repair despite there being many other VW owners who have experienced this (passatworld forum). We have owned eight different cars, Honda, Toyota, etc. And have never had this happen so this is clearly a VW defect.
