FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE |
CONSTANT REPAIR OF 2004 VW TOUAREG: THIS VEHICLE HAS BEEN CERTIFIED IN ALL STATES OF THE UNION AS BEING A CERTIFIED LEMON. WHEN I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE I HAD NO IDEA OF THIS. I HAVE HAD TO REPLACE A FAN SENSOR WHICH IS A CERTIFIED VW DEFECT, BUT I HAD TO PAY FOR THE COST, REPAIR AND LABOR IN THE AMOUNT OF $550 AND FURTHER, THE VEHICLE LEFT ME STRANDED BECAUSE THE FAULTY SENSOR ALLOWED A FAN TO KEEP BLOWING THEREBY DRAINING MY BATTERY COMPLETELY. REAR WINDSHIELD WIPER DISINTEGRATED DURING HEAVY RAIN AND COST 65 TO REPAIR ALTHOUGH THE PIECE LOOKS LIKE SOMETHING A CHILD PUT TOGETHER. FRONT WINDSHIELD WIPER FLEW OFF OF CAR WHILE RAINING, CAUSING ME TO PULL OVER AND BE STRANDED ONCE AGAIN. I GOT STRANDED AGAIN BECAUSE THE VW ENGINE COILS BURNT OUT WITHOUT NOTICE LEAVING ME STRANDED IN BLIZZARD CONDITIONS IN CHICAGO. I HAD TO GET A NEW BATTERY BUT WAS CHARGED $250 FOR THE BATTERY AND INSTALLATION BECAUSE VW CHOSE TO PUT THE BATTERY UNDER THE FRONT DRIVERїS SEAT. NOT THREE WEEKS HAVE PASSED AND I HAVENїT EVEN DRIVEN THE VEHICLE BUT BOTH FUEL PUMPS AND THE FLANGE MODULE HAVE GONE OUT. I HAD TO PAY $1500 FOR LABOR, PARTS, SHOP AND REPAIRS. VEHICLE HAS 91,000 AND BRAKES AND ROTORS HAVE GONE OUT AGAIN FOR THE 3RD TIME. RIGHT DOOR OPENS WHEN DRIVING ALTHOUGH THE VEHICLE IS LOCKED, WHICH IS ANOTHER CERTIFIED DEFECT. VEHICLE LUNGES FORWARD FROM A STOPPED POSITION AND THEN HESITATES WHEN TRYING TO SPEED UP ON THE HIGHWAY. *TR |

FUEL SYSTEM, DIESEL |
2013 TOUAREG TDI GLOW PLUG WARNING LIGHT CAME ON THEN THE ENGINE WARNING LIGHT. THE VEHICLE LOST THROTTLE RESPONSE -- DID NOT STOP RUNNING BUT ALSO FELT LIKE RUNNING ON ONLY A FEW CYLINDERS -- COULD NOT DRIVE OVER 40 MPH ON FREEWAY. ALSO LOST ABILITY TO DOWNSHIFT AUTO TRANSMISSION. DROVE THE VEHICLE TO MY REGULAR VW DEALER, WHO SAYS THAT THE ENTIRE FUEL SYSTEM MUST BE REPLACED -- AS DIRECTED BY VW USA -- FROM BACK TO FRONT. THE DEALER CLAIMS THERE WERE "PIECES OF RUST IN THE FUEL SYSTEM?" DEALER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT SHOULD NOT HAPPEN. THE VEHICLE IS LESS THAN SEVEN MONTHS OLD. NOW INTO SECOND WEEK WAITING FOR REPAIR. READING ONLINE, THERE IS EVIDENTLY A FUEL SYSTEM ISSUE FOR THE 2011-13 TDI TOUAREG RELATING TO THE INJECTORS (CERAMIC PARTICLES) AND FUEL PUMPS ABILITY TO HANDLE USA DIESEL. *TR |
