| 2007 | SEAT BELTS:FRONT | UNLIKE OTHER VW MODELS, THERE IS NO WAY TO BUCKLE DRIVER SIDE SEAT BELT WITHOUT A TWIST IN THE SEAT BELT. I TOOK THE CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP TO BE FIXED. THEY COULD NOT FIX IT . THEY CONTACTED VW AND WE WERE TOLD IT IS THE WAY IT WAS ENGINEERED. WE COMPARED IT WITH ANOTHER EOS, WHICH HAD THE SAME PROBLEM. WE THEN COMPARED IT TO A PASSAT, WHICH DID NOT HAVE THIS PROBLEM. IN ADDITION TO BEING UNCOMFORTABLE, I FEAR THAT IT WILL DECREASE THE EFFECTIVENESS OF THE SEAT BELT. I ALSO THINK WITH THE DISCOMFORT, PEOPLE MAY NOT WEAR IT. *TR |
| 2007 | VISIBILITY:SUN ROOF ASSEMBLY | ATTORNEY WRITES IN REGARDS TO LEMON LAW ON BEHALF OF A CLIENT *TGW THE VEHICLE WAS BURNING OIL AND IT WAS DETERMINED IT WAS NECESSARY TO REPLACE THE O RINGS. AFTER A WEEK AT THE DEALERSHIP, THE VEHICLE WAS RETURNED TO THE CONSUMER. THE VERY NEXT DAY, THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT START AND IT WAS TOWED TO THE DEALER. THE VEHICLE WAS LEAKING GAS. IT APPEARED THE O RING WAS TORN AND ALL FOUR O RINGS WERE REPLACED. THERE WAS A WATER LEAK INSIDE THE VEHICLE. THE DEALER ORDERED A SPECIAL ADHESIVE/SEALANT FOR THE CONVERTIBLE TOP. THE MASTER SWITCH THAT RAISED OR LOWERED ALL OF THE WINDOWS DID NOT WORK ON A CONSISTENT BASIS. WHEN THE DOORS WERE OPENED, THE FRONT WINDOWS WOULD GO DOWN, BUT THEY WOULDN'T COME BACK UP. THE REGULATORS WERE REPLACED. THE LEFT REAR WINDOW WOULD NOT GO UP AT ALL. THERE WAS A RATTLE COMING FROM THE CENTER OF THE DASHBOARD AT RANDOM WHILE DRIVING. THE CONVERTIBLE TOP WOULD NOT CLOSE, THE LUGGAGE COMPARTMENT WAS NOT PROPERLY ALIGNED. THE SUNROOF DRAINS WERE CLOGGED AND WATER WAS BACKING UP INTO THE VEHICLE WHICH WAS CAUSING THE WATER LEAK. THE LEFT FRONT SEAT MOTOR HAD TO BE REPLACED AS THE SEAT WAS NOT ADJUSTING PROPERLY. THE CONVERTIBLE TOP CABLES WERE FRAYING. THE TRANSMISSION WAS ERRATIC AND NOT ACCELERATING SMOOTHLY . *JB |
