2012 Volkswagen Jetta Cruise Control Problems

I'VE NOTICED THAT MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON AND OFF, IT'S THE MAP SENSOR. IT HAS BEEN REPLACED SEVERAL TIMES AND EVERYTHING HAS BEEN FULLY CLEANED, CHECK ENGINE LIGHT STILL COMES ON. MY CAR ALSO SEEMS TO GO INTO LIMP MODE WHILE DRIVING. I'LL MAKE A TURN, AND ALL OF A SUDDEN THE CAR WILL NOT WANT TO MOVE AT ALL, ILL SWITCH IT TO TRIPTRONIC AND IT DOESN'T WANT TO DOWN SHIFT OR UP SHIFT. I HAVE TO PULL OVER ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. TURN THE CAR OFF THEN BACK ON. THIS HAS BEEN AN ON GOING PROBLEM WITH BOTH OF THESE THING FOR THE LAST SEVERAL MONTHS. I'VE ALSO NOTICED THAT THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH JETTAS MY YEAR. IT'S EXTREMELY DANGEROUS. I CAN BE IN THE CITY ON A HIGHWAY, ANYWHERES AND IT'LL RANDOMLY NOT WANT TO GO ANYWHERES, THE RPMS WILL GO COMPLETELY UP AND STILL NOT MOVE. I KNOW FROM OTHER, THAT THERE IS AN UPDATE FOR THE ECU COMPUTER ON THE CAR, FOR THE MAP SENSOR AND TO I GUESS HE'LL WITH THE LIMP MODE ISSUE. I ALSO KNOW THAT WHEN I HARD BRAKE, IT'LL GO INTO LIMP MODE. IT'S EXTREMELY SCARY.

CAR CEASED TO CONTINUE ACCELERATION WHILE IN MOTION. DEALER ASSESSMENT CONCLUDED PARTICULATES IN DIESEL FUEL LINE CAUSED FAILURE TO FUEL PUMP AND RELATED COMPONENTS. DEALER SERVICE DEPARTMENT ADVISED THAT PARTICULATES LIKELY ORIGINATED FROM DIESEL FUEL STORAGE TANKS AT GAS STATION. VEHICLE WAS STILL COVERED UNDER MANUFACTURER'S 50K POWER TRAIN WARRANTY AND FUEL PUMP AND RELATED PARTS WERE REPLACED AT NO CHARGE. *TR

ACCELERATING UP FROM A STOP SIGN VEHICLE WOULD NOT SHIFT. PUSHED ON ACCELERATOR AND VEHICLE LOST ALL POWER AND WENT INTO LIMP MODE. COULD HAVE RESULTED IN ACCIDENT IF I HAD BEEN MERGING ON A VERY BUSY HIGHWAY. HAD VEHICLE TOWED TO DEALERSHIP AND THEY FOUND A ENGINE CODE BUT ARE UNABLE TO DUPLICATE AND WANT TO RETURN VEHICLE BACK TO ME WITHOUT RESOLVING DEFECT. *TR

MIDNIGHT, DRIVING BACK FROM A FRIENDS HOUSE. MY 16 MONTH OLD (OR RATHER NEW) JETTA SE 2012, SHAKES UP WHEN I TURN ON IGNITION. I GIVE IT 2-3 SECONDS TO CALM DOWN. IT DOESN'T. INSTEAD, THE EPC LIGHT GOES ON. THEN THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT. HMM... WEIRD. THOSE WEREN'T ON LIKE 2 HOURS BACK, OR EVER INFACT. BEING THE SMART TECHIE THAT I AM, I TRY THE HIGHLY TECHNICAL SOLUTION TO ANY PROBLEM THAT I DON'T QUITE UNDERSTAND - I TRY TO TURN IT OFF AND ON AGAIN. THE SAME GOD AWFUL SHAKING AND STUTTERING. BUT NO EPC LIGHT. I THINK TO MYSELF, MAYBE THIS IS JUST A TRANSIENT THING. TRY TO PULL OUT OF THE PARKING SPACE, AND THERE IT IS ... THE [XXX] EPC AND CHECK ENGINE LIGHT. BUT MY HOME'S ONLY A MILE AWAY, MAYBE THINGS GET BETTER ON THE WAY THERE. YOU KNOW, ITS A NEW CAR (BOUGHT 16 MONTHS BACK, BRAND NEW, AND HAS ~7600 MILES ON IT). BUT NO, AS I TRY TO "DRIVE" THE PIECE OF [XXX], IT STARTS SHAKING MORE VIOLENTLY WHEN I GET TO 25 MILES AND HOUR. SO, I PULL OVER, AND A QUICK GOOGLE SEARCH TELLS ME TO STAY BELOW 20 MPH AND GET IT TO A DEALER ASAP. SO I GET THE CAR TOWED, AND THE NEXT DAY THE DEALER TELLS ME ITS A FAULTY IGNITION COIL THAT HAS BEEN REPLACED AND TESTED AND THINGS SHOULD JUST WORK. BUT I'M SCARED TO GET IN THAT CAR AGAIN. WHAT IF THIS WOULD'VE HAPPENED FARTHER AWAY FROM MY HOUSE. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR
