Yesterday I took my vehicle to the VW dealership to be serviced because the epc and engine lights were on. I had to have 3 ignition coils and 4 spark plugs replaced on my vehicle at the VW dealership and the computer software updated. Today the engine light came back on. The epc light came on but went off after I turned the car off and restarted it. The car had trouble starting and lost power as I was driving on a city street. The car shuddered a bit as I was driving on a city street.

I just bought this 2009 Cc from buena park Nissan dealership in California, in February 2015 and put in just 6000 miles. I was driving to work on beverly bl on July 27th when all of a sudden the car just lost power while in motion.fortunately I was in the outside lane and was able to pull to the side. After checking to see if there was a loose connection to the battery or whatever....I started it and was able to drive 3 blocks to work before it stalled again. I had it towed to my mechanic and was diagnosed with P2293 low fuel pressure. He said it was drive able but that one day it may not start. After that incident the car has stalled 8 other times twice on the freeway and the last one was at an intersection with my wife and my 87 year old mother in law. I had high pressure fuel pump replaced and as the mechanic came to pick me up to get my car it stalled in the middle of an intersection while he was driving. It stalled again before we got to his shop. I decided to check into this issue and discovered that this is a common problem with the Ccs. I have not driven the car in a month and is parked in new century dealership in glendale, ca.after contacting Volkswagen corporate, they asked me to take it to the nearest dealership which I did. Four days later I got an email stating they cannot offer any financial assistance and more so I am responsible for the $130 diagnosis fee. It is only a matter of time before there serious fatalities from this very dangerous situation.

I was driving and my 2009 VW Cc 2.0 and my engine started shaking and shut down with no warning, try to start nothing. I towed it to a local VW dealership(chapman ) I got a call the next morning stating my engine timing chain tensional was bad and I might need an engine, but for them to verify if engine is unrepairable I will need 620+tax. I called VW headquarters and spoke with someone who told me that there was no tsb or recall on my vehicle so it was nothing they could do for me. So I started searching online and there is 100 of post and informing on this. I will try calling VW back maybe someone else will help me.

I have a 2009 Cc that after driving for a long time 1-1 1/2 hrs the car boggs down and dies at low speed or coming to a stop. This has happened at least a dozen times since the first occurance. This is a very dangerous safety issue. I went to the dealer and they replaced a fuel pump. In 2-3 days this exact same problem happened again. The engine light code stated that the problem was a fuel pump but that has been replaced already. This needs to be checked into as it is a very dangerous situation and it appears that several individuals are having the same problem.

I was having problems with my Cc after I brought from a dealership for 18 days, when I was driving at one night at a speed of 60mph, while driving it seems fine but after 7 minutes, the car has no response while I stepped on the gas pedal, the engine light and battery light showed up, RPM and speed slow down rapidly. I pull over and I restart the car and continue for another 400 yards and car die, I have it towed to dealership next morning and they found out the car has a bad fuel pump and bad fuel intake and has to replace for $1500.
