The vehicle is registered and titled under the Sportwagen VIN.  Safety Recall 20UF requires replacement of the suction jet pump to prevent risk of fire.  The recall was performed on the Sportwagen prior to its crash, but not on the GTI.  Since the Sportwagen no longer has it's original engine/fuel tank, but that from the GTI, this means my vehicle has the defective, unsafe part.  Because the dealer service department goes by the registered body VIN, they refused to perform the recall. I called VWoA Customer Care, who advised me that they could not do anything, and that the dealer service department must request an exception from VWoA and inspect the vehicle.  I have attempted reaching out to my two nearest VW dealers, including my regular dealer, and they have either refused to perform the recall, or refused to get back to me.  One dealer even said I should perform the repair myself, and when I pressed for VW to perform the recall, he said he'd have to call his regional manager and call me back at the end of the week.
