2010 Volkswagen CC complaints

I HAD MY CLOCK SPRING REPLACED LAST YEAR DUE TO THE RECALL, THEN MY AIRBAG LIGHT WENT ON AND MY STEERING WHEAL STARTED DOING A CLICKING SOUND WHEN I STEER TO THE LEFT OR RIGHT ALL CONTROL PANELS ON MY STEERING WHEEL STOPPED FUNCTIONING INCLUDING THE HORN. I CALLED VOLKSWAGEN AND THEY SAID THAT THEY WOULD CHARGE ME $150 TO ACCESS THE CAR, I TOLD THEM ABOUT CLOCK SPRING AND THEY SAID THAT I WOULD HAVE TO PAY TO GET THAT FIXED. I REALLY DON'T FIND THIS FAIR THAT I HAVE TO PAY TO GET SOMETHING FIXED THAT ORIGINALLY WASN'T DONE CORRECTLY I THINK THAT THEY SHOULD TAKE MORE RESPONSIBILITY FOR THEIR WORKMANSHIP. ALSO MY SEATBELT CLAPS DOCENT WORK I CALLED THEM TO SEE IF THIS IS SOMETHING THAT THEY WOULD FIX BEING A SAFETY ISSUE AND THEY SAID NO. I THINK THAT ALL CAR COMPANIES SHOULD BE RESPONSIBLE FOR SEATBELT AND AIRBAG ISSUES ON A CAR. NOT EVERYONE HAS THE MONEY TO REPLACE SEATBELT CLASP AND MANY PEOPLE LIVE DAY BY DAY ON THERE PAYCHECK.

THERE IS NO RECALL FOR VW CC 2010 BUT WHEN I PUT MY VIN NUMBER IN IT SHOWS MY VEHICLE IS ON RECALL FOR FUEL MODULE. I HAVE HAD NO PROBLEMS.

OUT OF NO WHERE MY VEHICLE BUCKED AND LOST POWER. I WAS ABLE TO PULL OVER AND THE ENGINE FAILED TO START. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO MY LOCAL VW DEALERSHIP AND DIAGNOSED AS A FAULTY TIMING CHAIN TENSIONER. THE REPAIR WOULD COST ABOUT $6500. UPON MY RESEARCH, I DISCOVERED THAT THIS IS A PRETTY COMMON ISSUE AMONG THE 2008-2013 TSI 2.0T ENGINES. OVER THE YEARS, DEALERSHIPS HAD BEEN MADE AWARE OF THE ISSUE THROUGH TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETINS. VW HAD FAILED TO LET THE CUSTOMER KNOW ABOUT IT OR ISSUE A RECALL AND NOW I AM STUCK WITH A VEHICLE THAT DOESN'T RUN AND CAN'T AFFORD TO PAY THE OUTRAGEOUS AMOUNT TO GET IT FIXED.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 VOLKSWAGEN CC. THE CONTACT WAS AWARE OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 17V509000 (FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE); HOWEVER, THE PART TO DO THE REPAIR WAS UNAVAILABLE.

I LEASED THIS IN VW CC SPORT 2010 AND THEN PURCHASED IT FORM VW SO I WAS THE ONLY OWNER TO DATE FOR THIS VEHICLE. SEVERAL TIMES SINCE OWNERSHIP THE BATTERY HAS DIED CAUSED BY SEVERAL REASONS. THE DOORS WERE ABLE TO OPEN BUT NOT THE TRUCK. I PULLED DOWN THE BACK/REAR SEAT TO PULL THE EMERGENCY RELEASE HANDLE IN THE TRUNK BUT COULD NOT REACH IT SO I HAD TO CRAWL INTO THE TRUNK TO PULL THE HANDLE. THE TRUNK SHOULD BE ABLE TO BE OPENED MANUALLY WITHOUT ANY POWER/ELECTRICITY NEEDED. I AM PRESUMING THIS MAY BE A DEFECT IN WIRING DIAGRAM/SCHEMATIC THAT CAUSES THIS ISSUE. THIS ISSUE MAY ALSO BE A SAFETY DEFECT AS SOME PEOPLE MAY NOT BE PHYSICALLY BALE TO CRAWL INTO THE TRUNK TO PULL THE EMERGENCY RELEASE HANDLE TO OPEN AND RETRIEVE ITEMS NEEDED.

CAR WOULDN'T GO OVER 40. HAVING HARD TIME GOING AND NOTICE LEAK UNDER THE FRONT OF THE CAR. TOOK TO THE DEALER SAID I NEED A NEW WATER PUMP. IDK IF THAT WAS THE CAR WOULD GO OVER 40 AND HAVE HARD TIME DRIVING. I WAS DRIVING CITY STREET. HAVING TO STOP FOR RED LIIGHTS.

AFTER GETTING TO THE 100,000 MILE MARKER. MY CAR BEGIN TO HAVE A ROUGH IDLE FROM THE ENGINE BAY THAT COULD ALSO BE FELT FROM WITHIN THE CAR. I THEN TOOK MY CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP IN WHICH THEY SAID IT WAS MISFIRING AND NEEDED NEW SPARK PLUGS AND COILS. AFTER PAYING FOR THAT I PICK MY CAR UP FROM THE DEALERSHIP ONLY TO FIND OUT THE ENGINE LIGHT CAME BACK ON ONCE GETTING HOME. A COUPLE WEEKS AFTER THAT MY ENGINE STARTED MISFIRING YET AGAIN WE'RE EVEN A WORSE ENGINE ROCK. FINALLY GOT IT INTO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY TOLD ME IT'S A BAD TENSIONER CHAIN AND ALSO THAT MY ENGINE HAS BEEN AFFECTED BY THAT. I WOULD THINK THEY WOULD HAVE KNOWN THE ISSUE WAS THAT INSTEAD OF THE SPARK PLUGS AND COIL PACKS. NOW MY ENGINE IS A GONER AND I'M LEFT WITH A CAR PAYMENT WITH NO VEHICLE DUE TO THE FAULTY CHAIN TENSIONER. I BELIEVE THAT IF THEY WOULD HAVE FIXED THE PROBLEM WHEN I TOOK IT IN THEN THEY COULD HAVE SEEN MY ENGINE FROM BLOWING. ALL THEY DID WAS DID A PATCH UP WITH SPARK PLUGS AND COILS

THE CAR SEEM HAVE A PROBLEM IN REVERS WHEN I USE IN BACKWARDS I CAN FEEL IN THE SHIFT (HOLD 4 SECONDS TO WORK AND MAKE A JUMP AFTER) AND WHEN I WAS DRIVING IN 35MPH THE CAR WAS FROZEN .

I HAD MY CLOCK SPRING REPLACED LAST YEAR DUE TO THE RECALL, THEN HAD MY AIR BAG REPLACED A MONTH AGO. THE RECALL FOR THE CLOCK SPRING STATED THAT THE AIRBAG REPLACEMENT MAY CAUSE THE CLOCK SPRING TO FAIL. BUT SINCE I HAD THE CLOCK SPRING REPLACED BEFORE THE AIRBAG I AM APPARENTLY NOT SUBJECT TO HAVE ANY FAILURE SINCE IT WAS A NEW PART. WELL GUESS WHAT HAPPENED MY CLOCK SPRING SURE ENOUGH FAILED 1 MONTH AFTER THE AIR BAG WAS REPLACED. I GUESS VW DID A GREAT JOB MITIGATING THAT DISASTER.

THE "STEERING COLUMN LOCK DEFECTIVE" MESSAGE IS COMMON IN THE 2009-2010 VW CC MODEL, VW ISSUED A RECALL THAT EXPIRED ON FEBRUARY 28, 2013. THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE THAT CAN CAUSE THE CAR TO STALL IN TRANSIT. VW SHOULD ISSUE A SAFETY RECALL ON THIS ISSUE AND TO ENSURE HUMAN SAFETY. MY VEHICLE JUST STARTED TO DISPLAY THE MESSAGE WHEN THE SEASON CHANGED, FROM MY UNDERSTANDING IT'S A COMMON ISSUE THAT VW FAILS TO TAKE FULL RESPONSIBILITY FOR AND INSTEAD SHIFTS THE COSTS OF A KNOWN DEFECT TO ITS CUSTOMERS.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 VOLKSWAGEN CC. WHILE DRIVING, THE CHECK ENGINE INDICATOR ILLUMINATED AND THE VEHICLE STALLED. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO CLAY COOLEY VOLKSWAGEN RICHARDSON (300 N CENTRAL EXPY, RICHARDSON, TX 75080, (469) 998-4700) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE TENSIONER CHAIN FRACTURED AND THE ENGINE NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED; HOWEVER, THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE VEHICLE WAS THEN TAKEN BACK TO THE DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE RADIATOR RACK NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED, BUT THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE VEHICLE WAS THEN TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE ENGINE FAILED BECAUSE THE TENSIONER CHAIN FRACTURED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED AND DID NOT ASSIST. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 80,000.

I WENT TO START MY VEHICLE PARKED IN MY DRIVEWAY TO GO TO WORK AND THE VEHICLE WOULDN'T START. I HAD JUST PUT FUEL IN IT THE NIGHT BEFORE SO I KNEW THAT WASN'T THE PROBLEM. HAD THE VEHICLE TOWED TO ASE CERTIFIED VOLKSWAGEN MECHANIC AND THEY RAN ALL TESTS TO FIND THAT MY TIMING CHAIN TENSIONER WAS BAD AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED AT A COST OF $7400. I STILL OWE $7K ON THE VEHICLE AT THIS TIME. I DON'T HAVE THE FUNDS TO PAY FOR THIS. THE CAR HAS BEEN SITTING FOR THE PAST 3MTHS. I AM PREGNANT AND AM SO GLAD THAT IT DIDN'T STOP IN THE MIDDLE OF THE HIGHWAY ON ME!

CAR HAS REPEATEDLY HAD ISSUES SHIFTING INTO THE PROPER GEAR. WHEN ATTEMPTING TO SHIFT INTO REVERSE, A LOUD CLUNKING CAN BE HEARD AND THE CAR SUDDENLY SWITCHES TO NEUTRAL WITHOUT BEING ABLE TO ENGAGE ANY GEARS THEREAFTER WITHOUT THE CAR FIRST BEING RESTARTED ENTIRELY. AFTER RESEARCHING AND REACHING OUT TO VW OF AMERICA, IT SEEMS MANY OTHER OWNERS OF VWS WITH THE SAME TRANSMISSION HAVE HAD SIMILAR ISSUES, SOME OF WHICH HAVE BEEN RECALLED PREVIOUSLY BY VW, INCLUDING 2010 VW CCS SIMILAR TO MINE. VW OF AMERICAN HAS FAILED TO SEE MY CAR SHOULD FALL WITHIN THE PARAMETERS OF THE ALREADY ISSUED RECALL AND HAS ADVISED ME TO FILE A REPORT HERE. I AM CONCERNED THIS ISSUE WILL POTENTIALLY CAUSE A FAILURE AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS AND COULD BE LIFE THREATENING. THANK YOU.

REGARDING NHTSA RECALL # 17V509, THE MANUFACTURER HAS YET TO ISSUE A REMEDY IN ORDER FOR ME TO GET THE CAR FIXED. I'VE HAD NUMEROUS TIMES IN WHICH MY BATTERY DRAINED AND I HAD TO GET MY CAR JUMPED. I COULDN'T UNDERSTAND WHY IT KEPT HAPPENING UNTIL I RECEIVED A TAKATA NOTICE REGARDING AIRBAGS ALSO BEING RECALLED AT WHICH POINT I RAN A SEARCH VIA VIN AND DISCOVERED THE FUEL PUMP RECALL INSTEAD. PLEASE ASSIST. THANK YOU.

DSG TRANSMISSION: THE CAR HAS BEEN "SLIPPING" WHILE DRIVING, WILL SLIP INTO NEUTRAL AND FAIL ON THE HIGHWAY. WHEN STATIONARY, SOMETIMES WON'T GO IN REVERSE, JUST FLASHES R, WHEN I PUT IT IN REVERSE. CAN TURN IT OFF, TURN IT BACK ON AND IT'LL RUN OK. VW HAS EXTENDED WARRANTY ON 2010 DSG, BUT IS NOT COVERING MY VIN.

TAKATA RECALL BEEN AWAITING A "NEW SHIPMENT" OF AIRBAGS FOR MONTHS NOW. STILL NO STOCK FOR A FIX

THERE WAS A RECALL IN 2015 INVOLVING A CLOCK SPRING IN THE STEERING WHEEL. RECALL DESCRIPTION: HAIR OR OTHER FIBERS MAY CONTAMINATE THE AIRBAG CLOCK SPRING (A SPIRAL WOUND, FLAT CABLE THAT KEEPS THE AIRBAG POWERED WHILE THE STEERING WHEEL IS BEING TURNED). THIS CONTAMINATION MAY TEAR THE CABLE AND RESULT IN A LOSS OF ELECTRICAL CONNECTION TO THE DRIVER'S FRONTAL AIRBAG. A LOSS OF ELECTRICAL CONNECTION TO THE DRIVER'S FRONTAL AIRBAG WILL PREVENT THE AIRBAG FROM DEPLOYING IN THE EVENT OF A VEHICLE CRASH, INCREASING THE RISK OF INJURY. ON FEBRUARY 29, 2016, VW DID A RECALL REPAIR BY INSTALLING A COVER OVER THE CLOCK SPRING. ON NOVEMBER 22, 2017, I WAS DRIVING AND WHEN I MADE A TURN, I HEARD A POP IN MY STEERING WHEEL. MY AIRBAG LIGHT IMMEDIATELY CAME ON ALONG WITH AN AIRBAG ERROR. I LOST THE USE OF MY HORN AND THE CONTROLS ON MY STEERING WHEEL, ALONG WITH MY AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT. I MADE AN APPOINTMENT TO HAVE THIS SEEN ABOUT. I WAS TOLD THAT I HAD TO REPLACE THE CLOCK SPRING FOR A FEE OF $877.88. I QUESTIONED THIS BECAUSE IT WAS A RECALL ISSUE AND WAS TOLD THAT THE REPAIR WAS COVERED FOR 12 MONTHS/12,000 MILES (WHICH EVER CAME FIRST) AND IT WAS OUT OF WARRANTY. FIRST OF ALL, THE CLOCK SPRING WAS NOT REPLACED, A COVER WAS PUT ON IT. HOW DO I NOT KNOW THAT THERE WERE FIBERS IN THE CLOCK SPRING BEFORE THE COVER WAS PUT ON? I FEEL THAT VW TOOK AN EASY WAY OUT OF FIXING A PROBLEM THAT COULD HAVE SERIOUS ISSUES LATER, WHICH I AM NOW EXPERIENCING.

WHEN EITHER SLOWING DOWN OR COMING TO A STOP MY CAR STARTS JERKING , I ATTEMPT TO ACCELERATE AND I CANNOT , MY CAR SEEMS TO GOING INTO A NEUTRAL STATE. THE DRIVE (D) GEAR FLASHES SO I AM STUCK. I HAVE TO PUT MY CAR INTO PARK (P) TURN OFF MY CAR IN THE MIDDLE OF TRAFFIC THEN TURN IT BACK ON TO DRIVE. ALSO, IF I AM IN THE DRIVE (D) GEAR AND I NEED TO GO IN REVERSE (R) I HAVE TO PUT INTO PARK (P) THEN TURN IT OFF AND THEN MOVE INTO THE REVERSE (R) GEAR. THIS STARTED HAPPENING INTERMITTENTLY, I TOOK IT TO VW AND THEY DIDN'T SEE ANYTHING WRONG WITH IT. I TOOK IT TO THE LOCAL O'REILLYS AND THEY SAW A P2711 CODE, I TOOK IT TO A LOCAL TRANSMISSION REPAIR AND THEY TOLD ME THEY GET A LOT OF THESE COMPLAINTS AND SUGGESTED I REPORT IT TO YOU.I I ALSO CALLED THE VW DEALERSHIP IN TALLAHASSEE FL WHERE I PURCHASED MY CAR THEY TOLD ME IT COULD COST ANYWHERE FROM $5000 TO $1100 TO FIX. IN MY RESEARCH I SAW THE SAME THING HAPPENED IN AUSTRALIA WHERE A LADY DIED BECAUSE THE GEAR SHIFTED FROM DRIVE INTO NEUTRAL WHILE SHE WAS DRIVING. I AM AFRAID FOR MY SAFETY AND MY DAUGHTERS WHO RIDE WITH ME. VW NEEDS TO RECALL THE DSG TRANSMISSION AND IMPLEMENT A FIX.

MY VOLKSWAGEN CC IS A 2010 WITH UNDER 65,000 MILES ON IT AND THE TIMING CHAIN TENSIONER FAILED. IT BROKE OFF AND ACTUALLY CRACKED THE HEAD SO THAT I NEED TO PUT IN A NEW ENGINE TO HAVE A WORKING VEHICLE AGAIN. THIS IS GOING TO COST ME $4500 FOR A CAR THAT IS NOT EVEN 5000 MILES OVER THE WARRANTY PERIOD. I BOUGHT THIS CAR 3 YEARS AGO AND HAVE ONLY PUT 30,000 MILES ON IT. ALL OF THE MAINTENANCE HAS BEEN DONE AT THE DEALERSHIP AT A COSTLY RATE TOO. IT DOES NOT SEEM LIKE AN ENGINE SHOULD CATASTROPHICALLY FAIL WITH THIS FEW MILES.

WE EXPEND TO BUYING CONSTANTLY THE IGNITION COIL . ONE YEAR AGO WE CHANGE THE WATER PUMP, AND ONE MONTH AGO WE CHANGED THE FUEL PUMP.WE HAD RECALL FOR THE AIR BAG WHICH WAS CHANGED AT THE DEALERSHIP. NOW WE HAVE A PROBLEM WITH THE TIRES N 5000 PLUS BECAUSE HAVE BUBBLES IN THE SIDES.

TENSIONER FAILED. MAINTENANCE MANUAL SAYS THE PART DOES NOT NEED SERVICE BEFORE 120,000 MILES, BUT TENSIONER FAILED AT 105. MANY LAWSUITS AROUND THE COUNTRY.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 VOLKSWAGEN CC. WHILE STATIONARY, THE BRAKE LIGHTS AND THE REVERSE GEAR LIGHTS MALFUNCTIONED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE INSTRUMENT PANEL INDICATED THAT NONE OF THE LIGHTS ON THE TRUNK OF THE VEHICLE WERE ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THERE WAS STRESS APPLIED TO THE QUARTER PANEL WIRES WITHIN THE TRUNK BY THE OPENING AND CLOSING OF THE TRUNK, WHICH IN TURN FRACTURED THE WIRING SYSTEM. IN ADDITION, THE TRUNK WOULD NOT OPEN WHEN PROMPTED WITH THE KEY FOB. A DEALER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE ISSUE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 100,100. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

THE ENGINE LIGHT IS ON IN MY VEHICLE AND I FOUND OUT THERE IS AN UNEXPECTED MECHANICAL GEAR DISENGAGEMENT (TROUBLE CODE P2711). THE DEALERSHIP QUOTED $2,400 SUGGESTING ME TO REPLACE CLUTCH PACKS, AFTER I SPENT $140 SIMPLY FOR DIAGNOSIS. I SAW THAT VW USED TO PROVIDE A SAFETY RECALL AND EXTENDED WARRANTY FOR DSG TRANSMISSION FOR CERTAIN MODELS IN 2007 TO 2010. I ALSO FOUND ONLINE THAT THERE ARE MANY REPORTED DSG-RELATED FAILURES. I, JUST AS MANY VW OWNERS DO, HAVE EXPERIENCED DELAYS AT SHIFT POINTS, CAUSING ERRATIC SHIFTING, JERKING, LONG STALL PAUSES, CLUTCH SLIPPING, SURGING IN FORWARD AND REVERSE, ETC. WHILE THE CAR IS EITHER ACCELERATING, PASSING OR CRUISING. HOWEVER, MY 2010 VW CC (55K MILEAGE) IS NOT UNDER THIS EXTENDED WARRANTY. I THINK IT'S VERY RIDICULOUS, SINCE I'VE TAKEN GOOD CARE OF MY VEHICLE, BUT HAVE ALREADY EXPERIENCED 3 SAFETY RECALL (INCLUDING TAKATA RECALL AND FUEL PUMP RECALL), AND THIS TIME THEY REFUSE TO REIMBURSE MY COSTS INCURRED BY THEIR COMMONLY-KNOWN DANGEROUS TRANSMISSION FAILURE. I'M ALREADY HUGELY INFLUENCED BY THIS MODEL'S SAFETY RECALLS, AND DON'T WANT TO PAY $2400 FOR THEIR DESIGN DEFECTS. EVEN IF I REPAIR IT AT MY OWN EXPENSE, IT'S HARD TO SAY SUCH A BAD TRANSMISSION WILL NOT CAUSE OTHER DANGER OR TROUBLE IN THE FUTURE. IF THIS IS THE SAME DSG TRANSMISSION THAT'S REPORTED TO BE TROUBLESOME, THEIR WARRANTY/RECALL SHOULD BE FAIRLY PROVIDED TO ALL INFLUENCED VEHICLES. THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME!

I HAVE A 2010 VOLKSWAGEN CC SPORT WITH A LITTLE MORE THAN 91872 MILES ON IT. I WAS ACCELERATING ON THE HIGHWAY AND MY VEHICLE BEGAN TO SPUTTER. THE EPC LIGHT AND THE CHECK ENGINE WARNING LIGHT CAME ONE. MY VEHICLE HAS HAD SLUGGISH ACCELERATION SINCE THEN. I HAVE NOTICED THAT THIS PROBLEM HAS OCCURRED WITH SEVERAL VOLKSWAGEN OWNERS. THERE SEEMS TO BE SEVERAL DIFFERENT OPTIONS WHEN IT COMES TO REPAIRING THIS PROBLEM. THE ONLY THING THAT SEEMS TO BE COMMON IS THAT IT OCCURRED WHEN ACCELERATING. THE OTHER THING THAT I HAVE NOTICED IS THAT THIS PROBLEM IS NOT SPECIFIC TO ONE VEHICLE IN THE VOLKSWAGEN LINE UP. THIS IS DEFINITELY A MANUFACTURERS SAFETY DEFECT IN THEIR SYSTEM THAT NEEDS TO BE CORRECTED BEFORE IT CAUSES AN ACCIDENT. I AM AWARE OF NHTSA RECALL NUMBER17V509 (MANUFACTURER RECALL NUMBER20AE). THIS RECALL IS FOR THE FUEL PUMP MODULE WHICH COULD RESULT IN A NO START CONDITION OR A LOSS OF MOTIVE POWER WHILE THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION. THE EPC WARNING LIGHT HAS THE SAME SAFETY RISK AS THIS RECALL. THIS COULD RESULT IN A LOSS OF MOTIVE POWER WHILE THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION COULD INCREASE THE RISK OF A CRASH CAUSING INJURY AND/OR DAMAGE TO PROPERTY.

TIRES CONSTANTLY SUFFER FROM CUPPING.

MY CAR HAD TROUBLE STARTING THAT MORNING. IT TOOK ABOUT 3 SECONDS FOR IT TO TURN ON AFTER I INSERTED THE KEY. I THOUGHT IT WAS JUST BECAUSE IT WAS GETTING A COLD START NOW THAT WE'RE IN SEPTEMBER. AS I WAS DRIVING A FEW MINUTES AFTER, THE CAR IMMEDIATELY DECELERATED WHILE ON THE ROAD. THAT COULD'VE BEEN CATASTROPHIC. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON SHORTLY AFTER AND THE CAR WOULD SHAKE A LOT, ESPECIALLY AT A STOP. I DID SOME RESEARCH AND TALKED TO MY MECHANIC AND HE TOLD ME IT WAS A TIMING BELT ISSUE. ESTIMATING $1600-$5000 FOR REPAIR. JUST 2 MONTHS AGO I HAD THE CEL THAT COSTED ME $700 AND A FEW MONTHS BEFORE THAT $500. I INVESTIGATED THAT THERE WAS A CLASS ACTION SUIT FOR THIS PROBLEM. MY CAR HAS ONLY 54000 MILES

TL* TAKTATA RECALL. THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 VOLKSWAGEN CC.
