| 2010 | POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION | HESITATION AND JUTTERING, VIBRATION, SURGING WHEN ACCELERATING AFTER A STOP. THERE IS NO RHYME OR REASON TO WHEN THE CAR IS GOING TO ACT UP AND NOT ACCELERATE AS IT IS SUPPOSED TO. ESPECIALLY DANGEROUS WHILE IN TRAFFIC OR AT AN INTERSECTION.THE CAR DOES NOT SHIFT GEARS SMOOTHLY, IT IS A CONSTANT JERKING WHILE DRIVING. THE CARS ALSO ROLLS UP TO 6" WHEN YOU PUT IT IN PARK EVEN WHEN ON A FLAT LEVEL SURFACE. THE DEALER KEPT MY CAR FOR 1 MONTH AFTER I COMPLAINED A SECOND TIME, THEY REPLACED THE MECHATRONICS AND ALSO UPDATED THE SOFTWARE, THERE IS NO IMPROVEMENT OR CHANGES. MY FIRST COMPLAINT WAS AT MY FIRST SERVICE AND THEY SAID THEY COULDN'T DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM. MY CAR IS BACK AT THE DEALER AND HAS BEEN FOR 3 WEEKS NOW, AGAIN, THEY ARE SAYING THEY CANNOT DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM AND HAVE TOLD ME THE PERFORMANCE OF THE CAR IS "NORMAL" BECAUSE OF THE MECHATRONIC SYSTEM. I HAVE ALSO CONTACTED VOLKSWAGEN CORPORATE BECAUSE THE DEALER HAS NOT BEEN VERY HELPFUL AND THEY INSIST THAT THE CAR DRIVES LIKE IT SHOULD. I'VE OWNED MANY NEW CARS AND HAVE NEVER HAD THE ISSUES I AM HAVING WITH THIS CAR. I DO NOT FEEL SAFE IN THIS CAR WHILE DRIVING IT. I DROVE ANOTHER CC AND IT DROVE EXACTLY LIKE MINE. VOLKSWAGEN NEEDS TO ADDRESS THIS IMMEDIATELY WHATEVER THE ISSUE IS, SEEMS TO ME IT IS AN ENGINEERING DESIGN PROBLEM. *TR |
| 2011 | SERVICE BRAKES | COMPLETE FAILURE OF THE BRAKES. TRIED TO STOP AT 90 DEGREE TURN AND PEDAL WENT WITHIN TWO INCHES OF THE FLOOR. CAR HAD ALMOST NO BRAKES. WENT OFF THE ROAD BUT WAS ABLE TO KEEP IT OUT OF 6 FOOT DITCH. CAR WAS TOWED TO DEALER AND I WAS TOLD THAT A FAILURE IN THE VACUUM PUMP CAUSED THE PROBLEM. THIS FAILURE WAS CAUSED BY A BROKEN PART INSIDE. NO WARNING LIGHTS CAME ON. NO WARNING OF FAILURE WHATSOEVER. VW TREATED IT LIKE IT WAS THE SAME AS A FLAT TIRE. I FELT IT WAS A SAFETY ISSUE AND ASKED TO BE REMOVED FROM THE REMAINDER OF THE LEASE. I WAS TOLD THEY DON'T DO THAT. I TRADED THE CAR FOR ANOTHER VEHICLE AS I FELT THE VW CC WAS COMPLETELY UNSAFE. *TR |
