Driving the car it randomly shut off after 10 minutes. No sputtering or indications its going to happen it just shuts off. Radio and windows still work. If you try to start it right away you get nothing. No clicking - nothing. If you wait a few minutes it starts right back up. I let it idle and the same thing happens. Please help - frustrated and will never own a Volkswagen again.

Thank you.

Check battery terminal ends for being clean and have battery checked for condtion including load test. Then if still not starting have starter checked for draw. Auto parts check batteries for free as well as tire stores.
