Jetta SE 1.8t

  • Automatic transmission

A D V E R T I S E M E N T S

I was driving my 2014 Jetta SE (14 months ago) when it completely stopped on Highway 101 in California at 4 pm on the day before Thanksgiving. I turned off my car and restarted it and the engine was shaking badly (from side to side) and the more I drove the car the more lights started turning on. I was stuck in major holiday traffic and almost got hit on numerous occasions and got honked at multiple times because I was unable to keep up in traffic due to the violent shaking of the vehicle. Going above 25 miles an hour caused the car to make a loud noise and shake even more vigorously, making it impossible and dangerous to drive on a major highway. The first lights to turn on included the EPC, Oil Light (Engine low oil) and Engine (Emission Control Light). However, as I drove the car more, to pull over to safety because I was unable to pull over at the current place I broke down, the more lights started to turn on such as the tire pressure system. I had to be towed to the nearest dealer who said 3 of my 4 ignition coils were misfiring.
