The main risk of driving a Volkswagen car with a fuel pump problem is that if the pump stops working while you are driving, the engine will not be able to get any fuel, causing it to stall. This can cause you to lose control of the car and possibly crash. Additionally, a faulty fuel pump can lead to other problems such as reduced engine performance, hard starting, and higher fuel consumption. Finally, it can lead to increased emissions and can be an environmental hazard.
