THREE TIMES WITHIN THAT TIME DURING RAINSTORMS, THE ENGINE DIED AND ALL THE ELECTRICAL EQUIPMENT, INCLUDING THE POWER BRAKES , FAILED. I HAVE JUST FOUND OUT THAT THE AIR INTAKE FOR THE ENGINE IS EITHER NEAR A WHEEL WELL OR BEHIND A HEADLIGHT, AS IS APPARENTLY COMMON FOR SPORTY CARS. THE WATER GETS SUCKED INTO THE ENGINE.  VW CHARGED ME $9000 AFTER THE SECOND EVENT, BLAMING IT ON PINE NEEDLES IN DRAINAGE WELLS. FIVE DAYS LATER, I WENT THROUGH A SMALL PUDDLE AND IT HAPPENED AGAIN. I SOLD THE CAR. I THINK THIS WARRANTS INVESTIGATION AS A MAJOR SAFETY HAZARD.  *NM","products":[{"type":"Vehicle","productYear":"2002","productMake":"VOLKSWAGEN","productModel":"PASSAT","manufacturer":"Volkswagen Group of America, Inc."}]}]}
