| Model year | COMPONENT | Complaint |
| 2009 | FUEL SYSTEM, DIESEL | TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2009 VOLKSWAGEN JETTA DIESEL TDI. THE CONTACT WAS DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 15 MPH WHEN THE VEHICLE SUDDENLY STALLED WITH THE ILLUMINATION OF A WARNING LIGHT. THE CONTACT WAS UNABLE TO RESTART THE VEHICLE AND IT WAS TOWED TO THE DEALER. THE VEHICLE WAS INSPECTED BY THE DEALER AND THEY ADVISED HIM THAT THE FUEL WAS CONTAMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED FOR THE ENTIRE FUEL SYSTEM. THE FAILURE AND CURRENT MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 45,000. THE VIN WAS UNAVAILABLE. |
| 2007 | AIR BAGS | ON JUNE 29 2012 AIRBAG INDICATOR LIGHT CAME. VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO VW AND THEY STATED THAT IT WAS THE WIRE HARNESS UNDER THE PASSENGER SEAT. SINCE VEHICLE WA NOT UNDER WARRANTY I HAD TO PAY $375.00 TO GET IT REPAIRED (OR SO I THOUGHT) JULY 17TH 2013 AIRBAG LIGHT RETURNED. ON JULY 22ND 2013 I TOOK CAR IN TO VW THIS TIME THEY HAD MY CAR FOR TWO DAYS AND DIAGNOSED THE PROBLEM TO BE THE AIRBAG IGNITER. I QUESTIONED THE FACT THAT THEY DIDN'T CATCH THAT THE FIRST TIME AND THEY REPLIED THAT THE SCANNER DIDN'T CATCH IT(YEAH RIGHT) THE SERVICE GUY TELLS ME THAT ITS $500.00 FOR THE PART AND 8 HOURS OF LABOR, OUCH!!! ARE YOU KIDDING ME THAT IS A SAFETY ISSUE AND SHOULD BE COVERED REGARDLESS. I CONTACTED VWOA AND I'M STILL WAITING FOR A RESPONSE. I REFUSE TO PAY THAT MONEY FOR A SAFETY MATTER THAT IS CLEARLY A MANUFACTURE DEFECT. I WILL NEVER AGAIN BUY VW. I'M SEEKING REPAIR EXPENSE PAID BY VWOA AND A REFUND FOR THE HARNESS SINCE IT WAS NOT THE PROBLEM. *TR |
