The contact owned a 2006 Volkswagen Passat. The contact stated that while her husband was driving in traffic, he rear-ended a vehicle at approximately 25 MPH. The air bags did not deploy upon impact. While her husband was exchanging information with the other driver, the other driver alerted him that his vehicle had caught fire. As her husband attempted to retrieve a fire extinguisher from the truck, he was alerted that the fire had worsened and was instructed to move away from the vehicle. Within minutes, the vehicle became engulfed in flames and was incinerated. A police report was filed. No injuries were reported. The contact had the vehicle towed to her home where it remained in her possession. The dealer nor the manufacturer had yet to be notified of the failure. The vehicle was a total loss.

HI I HAVE A 2006 VOLKSWAGEN PASSAT 2.0T AND IT HAS TWO RECALLS ON THE VEHICLE. I CALLED VOLKSWAGEN TO FIX THE RECALLS BUT THEY SAYING THEY CAN'T FIX MY CAR BECAUSE IT WON'T START. I TOLD THEM THAT THE FUEL PUMP CONTROL MODULE RECALL COULD BE THE REASON IT WON'T START AND THAT THEY NEED TO FIX IT EVEN IF IT DOESN'T START. THE GUY NAME RYAN SAY HE WILL HAVE TO CHARGE ME $130 TO SEE WHAT'S WRONG WITH THE CAR BEFORE HE CAN FIX THE RECALLS. I THINK HE FULL OF IT AND JUST WANT TO FIND SOMETHING ELSE WRONG WITH MY CAR SO HE CAN SAY OH THIS THE PROBLEM AND TRY TO CHARGE ME A ARM AND A LEG. I FEEL LIKE JUST BECAUSE MY CAR WON'T START DOESN'T MEAN HE CAN'T FIX MY RECALLS. AM I WRONG BECAUSE I THOUGHT BY LAW NO MATTER THE CIRCUMSTANCES OR CONDITION OF THE VEHICLE THE RECALLS HAVE TO BE FIXED.
