因變速箱問題，Volkswagen 緊急暫停旗下四款車型在美銷售

根據外電報導，因為變速箱冷卻器可能發生洩漏因而造成變速箱損壞的問題， Volkswagen 原廠已經責令美國經銷商停止銷售四款車型，直到問題改善為止。據了解，發生問題的是配置 1.8L 渦輪增壓引擎的車型，目前美國市場暫停販售的車型為 Jetta 、 Passat 、 Beetle 以及 Beetle 敞蓬車…等四款車型。

來自德國原廠的命令要求美國旗下經銷商停止以上四款車型的銷售，包含零售以及出租一切銷售行為，甚至嚴格要求經銷商必須將受影響所及的車輛撤出展示間，以免消費者產生誤解。正式的檢查以及修復程序及零件預計一週內可以提供，但目前尚不清楚對於已售出的車輛是否進行召回。

Volkswagen 近來因為 DSG 變速箱故障的問題造成形象嚴重受損，去年的整體在台銷售量也大幅滑落，在總代理的代理權即將不保之際，如果再不妥善因應關於品質及售後服務的疑慮，市佔率及品牌形象恐將再次大幅滑落。

在检查和修理程序正在制定和所需零部件的修复将在未来一周内可用。目前还不清楚召回是否会发行，但它是可能的。

Volkswagen halts sales of Passat, Jetta, Beetle
Volkswagen has ordered the halt of sales of 25,000 Passats, Beetles, and Jettas. The decision comes on the heels of massive recalls by Toyota and GM. Some analysts don't believe that's a coincidence. VPC

A faulty seal is being blamed for Volkswagen's decision to stop sale of 25,000 Passats, Beetles and Jettas that came with a particular turbocharged engine.

The seal, called an o-ring, connects to the automatic transmission cooler. It can spring a leak, leading to the possibility the oil could catch on fire in vehicles that came with 1.8-liter turbocharged engines. But Volkswagen says in a statement that no accidents, fires or injuries have resulted from the glitch so far.

All the cars involved in the issue were made since Feb. 1.

So far, VW is not advising owners of the near-new vehicles to stop driving them. The order, for the moment, only applies to dealers, who are being told to stop selling them until they can be fixed. VW says it is contact with federal safety regulators and a recall order is likely.

"There have been some complaints from customers -- oil leaking on the ground," says spokesman Mark Gillies.

Passat is made at Volkswagen's factory in Chattanooga, Tenn. Jetta and Beetle are manufactured in Mexico. The 1.8-turbocharged engines come as standard equipment in Passat and Beetle.
