This system locks the brakes when the clutch is activated and brakes are applied and can prevent the car from moving forward for two to three seconds, or cause a vehicle stall.  This system activates for two to three seconds and can't be modified or turned off.  This system also works on a predetermined amount of time and no user interaction can change the time or hold/braking force.  This is particularly dangerous in a left hand turn situation with multiple cars where a stall or hesitation for the car to move/accelerate could prove dangerous or fatal.  VW should turn this feature off or allow users to turn it off completely, WITHOUT having to turn it off for every startup.","products":[{"type":"Vehicle","productYear":"2023","productMake":"VOLKSWAGEN","productModel":"GTI","manufacturer":"Volkswagen Group of America, Inc."}]}]}
