Hi everyone.. My first post..( go ez on me if i'm in the wrong area for this).. I came home late the other nite from work and my garage was glowing RED.. Looked like the devil was in there..(he.he).. As it turned out the wifes brake lights on her jetta were on.. I reached in and hit the brake pedal and they turned off..So this past saturday she parks the car in the garage about 3 in the afternoon.. and doesnt use it again untill 3pm Sunday afternoon..Guess What??????? Yep.. battery is dead..So I plug in the ole charger in and as soon as it gets some juice.. BRAKE LIGHTS are on..lol.. So I take the car in to the local VW dealer..and they give me a rental and say they cant duplicate the brake lights staying on yet.. And until they do they wont replace the switch..($15.00 dollar part).. So I take the rental and wait ..and finally the next dayI call them and they say they still havent been able to get the brake lights to stay on.. I said hey.. the wife always locks the car with the key fob.. try that ,maybe the lights stay on instead of blinking once and going off.. BINGO!!! Ding , ding ., ding!! They call me back and say thanks for diagnosing my cars problem and they have to order a " comfort module" to fix the problem.. Could this be the start of a recall???? Stay tuned!!!
