“2014 Jetta Hybrid doesn't accelerate past 25-30 MPH causing a high rev and in this case a jerk foward if the turbo was activated causing a collision with a chevy tahoe the suvs towing wrench to crumple our hood and more damage to front end of our vehicle on other days before the accident our vehicle would put off the sthe overwhelming smell of transmission fluid almost as if a skunk was under our car”
NHTSA complaint #11192915, filed 2019-04, 90,000 miles“While driving just after I exited the freeway, was pulling into a parking lot to go have lunch, the engine died, and the steering locked up, was unable to steer. I went in ate lunch drove it home on surface streets without a problem. It is a hybrid, I have taken it to the dealership, and they're telling me it is $13,000 to fix, but I'm more concerned that the car again could just lock up, and not steer.”
