Vehicle has another fuel rail issue. This was part of a couple of recalls and the vehicle was "repaired" in the past by vw. However, the fuel rail has failed again and vw will not honor the recalls or pay for the repair. This known defect is a safety hazard and can cause the vehicle to catch on fire. See recalls #24bi which was replaced by #24bl.

If you hold the key at a certain angle it will turn on…

My jetta's fuel rail is leaking around the seal to the fuel injector(s) and is currently leaking fuel into my engine compartment. I brought this in 16 months ago and my dealer said they could not find the issue. I have recently brought it back in and found out the 2014 jetta was recalled for this exact issue but the dealer is claiming my vin is not covered. Is there anything i can do about this?

When they checked it, they…
