2013 Volkswagen Passat Electronic stability control Problems

“There was a recall on clockspring, and the repair was a clockspring cover that was repaired on my vehicle in march of 2016. July 2018 my clockspring had to be completely replaced costing $650. There was also an airbag recall that caused my horn to stop working, airbag light to come on, at the same exact time the clockspring stopped working. I took my vehicle to a dealership 2 days ago to have the clockspring looked at and the recall on the airbag repaired. …”

This is a huge safety issue. Computer faults and shuts down the power at hiway speeds and sometimes car stalls out. …”

“I feel there is a safety issue with my 2013 Volkswagen Passat. There is know way to bypass the electronic traction control.

This may help a novice driver or be helpful in the rain, but when your in the snow or ice and on a hill or incline it is dangerous to have the engine cut off and leave you stopped. …”
