 As i was driving on the interstate my battery light and epc light came on and stated to service engine now. the car started to become jumpy and i immediately took it to the closest dealer. after running a diagnostic, they stated my fuel injector has a leak and is leaking into the exhaust system. i have googled this issue and have found that there was a recall but only for diesel engines for vw which my car is not. apparently this issue can cause the car to catch fire.

 2010 vw eos - with less than 5000 miles, car would lurch when starting after coming to a stop. this is repeated continually. service people advised mechatronics unit needs to be replaced and part would take at least two weeks. from forums, it appears that this is a problem with many owners of vw and should be acknowledged by the company and a fix made to all units.
