There is a recall for this part, contact your local VW dealership. The problem is in the brake light switch, it is a faulty part. If you have had prior repairs and paid for them on this part you can get a refund from VW.

Why can't you shift gears on a 2000 VW Jetta with a automatic transmission?

You can't shift gears on an automatic transmission because, as it is called, it's automatic! You don't need to shift, it does it for you. == == Maybe the question should be "Why is my automatic transmission not shifting through gears for me as it should?" Could it be a fairly simlpe fix or am I losing my transmission? Yeah Dopey!


What is wrong with a 1999 VW Jetta that starts fine but will not shift from park?

I hear there was a problem with the parking switch. The parking switch (what I call it) is the mechanism that is connected to the brake which would need to be depressed before you could shift out of park. It is a safety feature. So basicaly when you would push in the brake pedal the switch would not activate and therefore you could not shift out of park. FYI there is a recall on the parking switch.
