| At 8:40 am cst on 11/6/2012. while commuting to work at 55 mph road in the middle of freeway. i lost functionality on the gas pedal. the vehicle would not accelerate when engaging the gas pedal. gas pedal was rendering non-functional and in-effective. there was heavy soot/smoke from the exhaust primarily almost like fire and some smoke from under the hood, this is a new under warranty vw cc 2012 4 door sedan. driving on the left lane with a semi behind me when this occurred. it created a very unsafe near miss incident. i am fortunate that a collision did not happen when i lost power to the wheels. i pulled off to an exit and when i floored the gas pedal, there was intermittent power stalling the vehicle to less than 5 mph. however, there was heavy soot/smoke from the exhaust primarily almost like fire and some smoke from under the hood, with parking lights on i drove 2 minutes and pulled to a parking lot. my vehicle was towed to a nearest vw dealership upon talking with vw road side assistance. they appear to be inconsiderate to the magnitude of the situation i dealt with and the impact and severity of the technical failure. i don't know if this systemic in vw cc. this technical failure can easily cause accidents. my near miss is a testament to it. *tr | |||
