IT  WAS  FOR A PROBLEM WITH THE  ELECTRONIC CONTROL MODULE (ECM) SOFTWARE FOR THE CATALYTIC CONVERTER MONITORING SYSTEM.   I WAS INSTRUCTED TO GO IMMEDIATELY TO A VOLKSWAGEN   DEALER FOR REPAIR. I MADE AN APPOINTMENT AND BROUGHT THE CAR YESTERDAY TO THE LOCAL DEALER, SANTA MONICA VOLKSWAGEN. THE SERVICE TEAM INFORMED ME THAT VOLKSWAGEN, HAD UNANNOUNCED TO OWNERS, CLOSED THE RECALL BECAUSE IT HAD YET TO WORK OUT A PERMANENT FIX FOR THE PROBLEM.   VOLKSWAGEN  AMERICA SHOULD HAVE SENT OWNERS WHO'D RECEIVED THE ORIGINAL RECALL NOTICE A LETTER INFORMING THEM NOT TO ACT ON THE RECALL, NOT TO BRING THEIR CARS IN.  THIS PROBLEM WITH THE ECM SOFTWARE HAS RESULTED IN  THE VEHICLE FOR YEARS, HAVING THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT PERMANENTLY ILLUMINATED. VOLKSWAGEN  NEVER INFORMED OWNERS OF THIS. AS A RESULT, I SPENT SEVERAL HUNDRED DOLLARS WITH MY OWN MECHANIC, NOT VOLKSWAGEN  DEALER,  TRYING TO SOLVE THE PROBLEM. OVERALL, I HAVE BEEN HIGHLY DISSATISFIED WITH THIS RECALL. I CONTINUE TO DRIVE A CAR WITH THIS DEFECT.  WASTED A MORNING YESTERDAY AT THE VOLKSWAGEN DEALER BECAUSE OF AN ERRONEOUS RECALL NOTICE SENT TO ME BY VOLKSWAGEN,  AND I HAVE  ALREADY INCURRED SIGNIFICANT EXPENSES TRYING TO SOLVE A PROBLEM THAT VOLKSWAGEN  HAS KNOWN ABOUT, EVIDENTLY, FOR MANY YEARS WITHOUT ACTING.*AK","products":[{"type":"Vehicle","productYear":"2001","productMake":"VOLKSWAGEN","productModel":"JETTA","manufacturer":"Volkswagen Group of America, Inc."}]}]}
