Wiring harness 3C8-971-182-J yielded multiple wire breaks with exposed copper ends near harness couplers. Wiring is for rear lights and camera mounted on trunk hood. Some rear lights failed to light. Picture is available. Have noticed multiple issues of same on internet with identical breakage.
The contact owns a 2014 VOLKSWAGEN CC. The contact stated that initially the back over prevention camera no longer operated as needed. Over time, the trunk could not be opened from outside the vehicle. The trunk could be opened using the button inside the vehicle or the key fob. The contact also mentioned that the driver’s side rear reverse light would intermittently remain illuminated with a warning message on the instrument panel. The contact had taken the vehicle to a dealer and was informed that there was a defective wiring harness that caused the failure. The contact declined to repair the vehicle out of pocket. The manufacturer had yet to be notified of the failure. The vehicle had yet to be repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 96,000. Vin was not available.
DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE I HEARD A LOUD BANG SOUND LIKE A GUNSHOT. I LOOK UP AND GLAS WAS ALL OVER ME. HOW IS THAT POSSIBLE WHEN MY SUNROOF IS CLOSE.
VEHICLE TRUNK LIGHT INDICATOR SHOWS THAT VEHICLE TRUNK IS OPEN. INTERMITTENTLY TURNS OFF THEN COMES BACK ON. TRUNK INTERIOR LIGHT STAYS ON. THIS WILL DRAIN CAR BATTERY IF LIGHT ISN'T UNPLUGGED LEAVING PEOPLE STRANDED. THIS SEEMS LIKE IT IS A FAULTY DESIGN ON BEHALF OF VOLKSWAGEN. VOLKSWAGEN SHOULD PERFORM AN ACTION AND REMEDY FOR THE VW CC OWNERS AFFECTED BY THIS PROBLEM. *TR
BACK UP CAMERA SYSTEM FAULTY PER VOLKSWAGON DEALERSHIPS AND INTERNET- VOLKSWAGON CUSTOMER CARE VIEWS AS A RADIO AND NOT A SAFETY ISSUE.
DRIVING THE CAR (WHICH WAS PURCHASED 6 MONTHS AGO FROM OUR LOCAL HONDA DEALERSHIP) HONKED THE HORN ON THE CAR COMING HOME FROM PICKING UP THE KIDS FROM SCHOOL. DRIVING THROUGH LOCAL STREETS AND ALL OF A SUDDEN THE AIR BAG SIGN CAME ON. NOW WHEN I TURN CAR ON IT STATES AIRBAG DEFECT AND NONE OF THE CONTROLS WORK ON THE STEERING WHEEL. THE CAR IS MY WIFE'S CAR AND SHE DRIVE MY TWO LITTLE BOYS IN IT DAILY. THE AIRBAG DEFECT WARNING IS CONCERNING ESPECIALLY READING OTHER OWNER'S COMPLAINTS IN REGARDS TO THIS ISSUES.
STEERING WHEEL CLOCK SPRING BROKE. NO HORN OR FUNCTION BUTTONS WORKING ALONG WITH THE AIRBAG.
TAKATA RECALL, I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR THE PART SINCE JULY 2018. THIS IS A SAFETY RECALL AND CURRENTLY I AM TAKING A MAJOR RISK BY DRIVING MY VEHICLE WHICH I NEED TO GET BACK AND FORTH TO WORK. I AM EXTREMELY ANXIOUS AND UPSET AS THE DEALERSHIP HAS BEEN UNABLE TO PROVIDE ME WITH ANY INFORMATION AS TO WHEN THE PART WILL BE AVAILABLE.
TAKATA RECALL ON NOVEMBER 11, 2017, I TOOK MY CAR TO TONY VOLKSWAGEN IN WAIPAHU, HAWAII TO REPLACE THE TAKATA AIR BAGS. IT TOOK ONE WHOLE YEAR FOR THEIR SERVICE DEPARTMENT TO GET THE PART AND GET BACK TO ME. TERRIBLE SERVICE. ON AUGUST 3RD, 2018, I RECEIVED A TAKATA RECALL AGAIN SAYING IT WAS NOT REPLACED. THE NAME OF THE SERVICE ADVISOR WAS 51448 AARON CHAN FROM TONY VOLKSWAGEN IN WAIPAHU HAWAII. THIS IS MY COMPLAINT. IT WAS NEVER REPLACED IN THE FIRST PLACE. UNETHICAL AND FRAUDULENT!!! I COULD HAVE GOTTEN INTO AN ACCIDENT ALL THIS TIME THINKING IT WAS FIXED.
TL* TAKATA RECALL. THE CONTACT OWNED A 2014 VOLKSWAGEN CC. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 10 MPH, THE VEHICLE ACCELERATED OUT OF CONTROL ACROSS THE ROAD AND CRASHED INTO A COUPLE OF TREES IN A NEIGHBOR'S YARD. THERE WERE NO WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT ONLY THE DRIVER SIDE AIR BAGS DEPLOYED. A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED. THE DRIVER SUSTAINED INJURIES THAT REQUIRED MEDICAL ATTENTION. THE VEHICLE WAS TOTALED AND WAS TOWED TO THE DEALER (DIEHL AUTOMOTIVE, 258 PITTSBURGH RD, BUTLER, PA 16002, 724-282-8898). THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE CONTACT RECEIVED RECALL NOTIFICATIONS FOR NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBERS: 17V509000 (FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE) AND 18V148000 (AIR BAGS), WHICH STATED THAT PARTS WERE UNAVAILABLE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 20,000. PARTS DISTRIBUTION DISCONNECT.
MY VEHICLE START WITH THE PROBLEM AT 33KMILES. NOW I'M AT 37KMILES AND IT'S HAPPENING DAILY. AFTER STARTING THE VEHICLE AND PUTTING IT ON DRIVE, THE BRAKE WILL NOT WORK PROPERLY AND STARTED MAKING A SCREECHING NOISE. ALL OF THE WARNING LIGHTS ON THE DASHBOARD LIT UP, THE MESSAGE CENTER SHOWS ERROR WITH AIRBAG, ABS BRAKE, VEHICLE STABILIZATION...ETC. I AM AFRAID FOR MY LIFE, THIS VEHICLE IS NOT SAFE TO DRIVE. I WOULD STOP AND TURN OFF THE ENGINE AND RESTART THE VEHICLE, SOMETIMES THAT RESET THE LIGHTS AND OTHER TIMES THAT DOES NOT HELP. THE BIGGEST CONCERN IS THE BRAKES NOISES AND THE POWER STEERING GETS UNSTABLE, AND AFRAID THE AIRBAG MIGHT NOT WORK PROPERLY IN CASE OF AN ACCIDENT. I JUST UPDATE THE AIRBAG FROM THE LAST RECALL. I CAN'T DRIVE WITH MY BABY IN THE CAR BECAUSE OF THE ISSUES.
THE CAR IS STALLING UPON ACCELERATING WHILE IN MOTION AND AT A STOP IT JERKS BACK AND FORTH. THE CAR SHAKES WHEN ACCELERATING AND PUTTERS EVEN WHEN THE CAR IS STATIONARY.

IN FEBRUARY OF 2017, MY VEHICLE STALLED ON A BUSY FREEWAY WHILE IN MOTION AND COMPLETELY DIED, AFTER TOWING THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALERSHIP THEY DETERMINED SEVERAL PARTS NEEDED TO BE REPLACED INCLUDING MOUNTING, BEARING, C VALVE, AH SEPARATOR, RIBBEDBELT, TENSIONER, C-GASKET, D-GASKET, SEAL RING AND BOLT. AFTER DRIVING THE VEHICLE HOME AGAIN IT DIED. I TOOK IT BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP WHERE THEY REPLACED THE FUEL PUMP MODULE, WASHER AND CONTROL UNIT. THE CAR APPEARED TO BE DRIVING FINE THE DAY I LEFT, BUT THE NEXT MORNING IT WOULDN'T START. I HAD THE VEHICLE TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP IN WHICH THEY ADVISED I NEEDED A NEW BATTERY. I KEPT UP WITH ALL SERVICE AND IN JANUARY OF 2018 WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE, IT STALLED YET AGAIN WHILE IN MOTION, WITH VEHICLES ALMOST STRIKING ME, AFTER TOWING THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALERSHIP, THEY ADVISED IT WAS THE FUEL PUMP MODULE AGAIN. THEY REPLACED THE PART. THE CAR WAS DRIVING FINE UNTIL MARCH 2018 WHEN THE VEHICLE STALLED ON THE FREEWAY WHILE IN MOTION. THE DEALERSHIP NOW STATES THE BUSHINGS ARE CRACKED AND DRY ROTTED, AND THE MECHATRONIC UNIT HAS FAILED AND THE VEHICLE NOW NEEDS A NEW TRANSMISSION.

I HAVE HAD AN ISSUE WITH A GAS SMELL THAT ARISES FROM THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT FOR OVER 4 YEARS-- I WAS ENCOURAGE TO CHANGE MY FUEL PUMP BY VW DEALER-- BUT THAT WAS NOT THE PROBLEM. I WAS ENCOURAGED TO ONLY PUT PREMIUM GRADE A GAS AND FUEL INJECTOR CLEANERS WHICH I DID REPEATEDLY, UNFORTUNATELY THE SMELL WORSENED UNTIL THE DAY I WENT TO REGISTER MY CAR AND I WAS TOLD THAT THERE WAS A VISIBLE FUEL LEAK FROM UNDER THE MANIFOLD AND IT WAS A SLOW DRIP THAT WAS EVAPORATING OFF THE ENGINE HEAD. I WAS TOLD THE CAR COULD COMBUST AT ANY TIME. I WENT TO THE NEARER VW AND THE PROBLEM THAT NO ONE COULD FIGURE OUT FOR YEARS WAS A "FUEL LINE TO HIGH PRESSURE PUMP" $ 399 TOTAL-- I NO LONGER HAVE THIS FUEL SMELL. BUT BASED ON MY RESEARCH THERE ARE THOUSANDS OF VW'S ALL MODELS WITH THE SAME ISSUE .THE FUEL SMELL WAS NOTED THE YEAR AFTER I PURCHASED THE CAR WITH 20,000 MILES AND THE HOSE GAVE OUT AT 70,000 MILES. I BELIEVE THIS IS A REPORTABLE INCIDENT FOR A POSSIBLE RECALL.

TAKATA RECALL BUT STILL HAS AN AIRBAG LIGHT ON WHEN IT SHOULD HAVE BEEN FIXED.
I WAS INFORMED THAT MY VEHICLE WAS RECALLED, VEHICLES IN THE STATES WITH HIGH TEMPERATURES WOULD RECEIVE PRIORITY TREATMENT. I WAS INFORMED THAT PARTS WERE NOT AVAILABLE.I WAS INFORMED THAT VW WAS NOT ATTEMPTING TO PURSUE THESE RECALLS AS THEY HAD NOT EXPERIENCED ANY FAULTY VW MISHAPS WITH TAKATA AIRBAGS. THEY SAID THAT HONDAS AND OTHER AUTOMOBILES THAT WERE EXPERIENCING THESE INCIDENTS. NO RENTAL WAS MADE AVAILABLE UPON REQUEST THOUGH THEY DID SAY THAT MAY HAPPEN BUT IT WASN'T SET UP AS OF THEN.. AS A LEASEE I INFORMED THE LOCAL DEALER WHERE I PURCHASE MY VW THAT I WOULD LIKE TO TURN IN MY CAR EARLY (IT WAS DUE IN MAY) AND THAT THE CAR WAS IN MINT CONDITION AND UNDER MILEAGE. I GAVE MY REASONS TO THE GENERAL MANAGER, THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT AND I HAD MADE SEVERAL CALLS TO NHTSA. ALL WERE IN AGREEMENT THAT I LIVED IN A STATE WHERE PRIORITY SHOULD BE GIVEN. HOWEVER, THE ATTITUDE FROM VW WAS THAT THEY FELT NO URGENCY TO PUSH THROUGH FOR THESE RECALLS AS THEY WERE NOT LIABLE. YET. MY SAFETY WAS NOT AN ISSUE WITH VW. I AM NOW LOOKING AT A BILL FOR EARLY TURN-IN FOR $821.82 THIS INCLUDED A TINY CORNER ON A TINY WING WINDOW( THAT DOES NOT OPEN) WHERE THEIR FACTORY INSTALLED SOLAR FILM WAS INSTALLED AND STARTING TO LIFT AT ONE OF THE EDGES. I NEVER SAW THIS AND THEY NEVER SHOWED ME AT TURN IN. LASTLY, THEY INFORMED ME AT THE LOCAL AUCTION THE CAR WOULD LIKELY SELL AND THAT WAS THAT. HANDED THE KEYS OVER, NO PAPERWORK TO SIGN AND OUT THE DOOR WE WENT. MY HUSBAND AND I WERE STUNNED AT THE LACK OF CUSTOMER SERVICE THAT THIS DEALERSHIP DISPLAYED NOT ONLY WITH REGARD TO THE RECALL BUT TO THE HANDLING OF THEIR CUSTOMERS DURING SERVICE AND THE MANY PHONE CALLS I HAVE RECEIVED SINCE ASKING IF I WANT TO PURCHASE ANOTHER VEHICLE WHEN MY LEASE IS UP. NOT TOO MUCH COMMUNICATION GOING ON THERE AS ITS BEEN THREE MONTHS SINCE I NO LONGER HAVE A VW. NOR WILL I EVER AGAIN.
THE AIRBAG ERROR LIGHT IS ON AND IT SHOWS AN ARTICLE THAT THEIR IS A RECALL ON MY PARTICULAR CAR. THE HORN NO LONGER WORKS AND THAT IS A SAFETY RISK. THE BOUCHER VOLKSWAGEN DEALERSHIP IS NOT HONORING THE RECALL AND THE SPRING CLOCK HAS A RECALL ON IT. THEY NEED TO FIX THE ISSUE DUE TO A RECALL ON THE VOLKSWAGEN CC 2014.

CAR HAS 8200 MILES. STARTED TO NOTICE WHEN EXIT THE FREEWAY A RUMBLING SOUND, AFTER FEW TRIPS I NARROWED THE PROBLEM TO FRONT DISC BRAKES. SEEMS LIKE THEY ARE WARPED. AFTER 2 TIMES OF TAKING THE VEHICLE FOR INSPECTION TO SAVANNAH VOLKSWAGEN, THEY GAVE ME FEEDBACK THAT PROBLEM IS NORMAL. THE PROBLEM IS MORE ACCUTE WHEN BRAKES WARM UP A BIT AFTER DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY. DONT KNOW WHAT TO DO SINCE VW CUSTOMER SERVICE TELLS IS OK.
DRIVING ON US-95 OUTSIDE OF PHILADELPHIA PA. CHANGED LANES FROM LEFT LANE TO CENTER. SMALL RUT BETWEEN LANES. RIGHT FROM WHEEL FAILED. WHEN CHANGING THE TIRE, I NOTICED THE WHEEL COMPLETELY CRACKED ALONG THE CIRCUMFERENCE ON THE FLAT SECT WHERE IT MEETS THE SIDE RAMP OF THE WHEEL GOING TOWARDS THE BEAD.
