2012 TIGUAN (~18,000 MILES) HAS STALLED AT LOW MPH FOUR TIMES. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON ONE OCCASION BUT NOT THE OTHERS. AT EACH TIME THE VEHICLE WOULD RESTART AFTER PUTTING IT IN PARK. TOOK IT IN TO DEALERSHIP AND THEY COULD NOT FIND ANYTHING WRONG, TOLD ME TO MAKE NOTE OF TEMP, MILEAGE, GAS LEVEL IF IT HAPPENED AGAIN. THANKFULLY THIS ONLY HAPPENED WHEN OTHER CARS WERE NOT NEAR ENOUGH TO CAUSE HARM. *TR

UPON STARTING MY TIGUAN AN EMERGENCY APPEARED ON MY DASHBOARD, A LIGHT BULB. MESSAGE STATED THAT THE LEFT TAIL LIGHT WAS OUT. GOT OUT AND CHECKED THE LIGHT AND IT WAS OUT. THEN IT STATED MY FRONT RIGHT LOW BEAM HEADLIGHT WAS OUT, THEN MY BRAKE LIGHTS AND THE LIGHT FOR MY LICENSE PLATE. THIS WAS THE 1ST TIME THE CAR HAD EXPERIENCED THIS ISSUE. NO PREVIOUS WARNINGS. TOOK THE TIGUAN TO MY DEALER, THE CAR WAS INSPECTED AND I WAS TOLD THAT THE FUSE BOX HAD MELTED. I ASKED WHAT THE CAUSE WAS AND THEY GAVE ME NO EXPLANATION, BUT DID STATE IT WOULD COST AROUND $630 TO REPAIR. WORK WAS COMPLETED AND THE SYSTEM IS WORKING FINE, BUT THEY COULD GIVE ME NO GUARANTEE IT WOULDN'T HAPPEN AGAIN. *TR
