2010 Volkswagen CC complaints

AFTER COMING TO A STOP, WHEN FOOT IS REMOVED FROM THE BRAKE, THE CAR DANGEROUSLY LURCHES FORWARD, SOMETIMES SEVERAL TIMES BEFORE NORMAL DRIVING CAN CONTINUE. THIS PROBLEM WAS DOCUMENTED BY VW AND THEY EXTENDED THE WARRANTY/FIX UP TO 10 YEARS/100,000 FOR SOME VEHICLES (APPEARS MANUFACTURED UP TO 2009?). THEY WOULD NOT COVER THIS VEHICLE UNDER THE SPECIAL EXTENDED WARRANTY.

HELLO, I BOUGHT THIS CAR 2 MONTHS AGO , MILEAGE 89000 .PROBLEM WITH A GEARBOX DSG, ON THE WEBSITE I GOT THIS ; VOLKSWAGEN HAS ANNOUNCED A PROGRAM TO HELP OWNERS OF VW AND AUDI VEHICLES EQUIPPED WITH THE COMPANY’S DUAL-CLUTCH DSG TRANSMISSIONS. AFTER A FLURRY OF COMPLAINTS TO THE NHTSA, VW WILL REPLACE COMPONENTS INSIDE THE TRANSMISSION. ISSUES APPARENTLY STEMMED FROM FAULTY TEMPERATURE SENSORS THAT WOULD FORCE THE DSG BOXES INTO NEUTRAL, OFTEN WHILE OWNERS WERE DRIVING. VW WILL REPLACE THE COMPONENTS AND OFFER LOANER CARS DURING THE REPAIRS. OWNERS WHO HAVE ALREADY PAID OUT-OF-POCKET FOR THE FIX WILL BE REIMBURSED. THE COMPANY WILL ALSO APPLY A 10-YEAR, 100,000-MILE TRANSFERRABLE WARRANTY TO THE DSG TRANSMISSIONS. BUT WHEN I TALK TO VW DEALER BROOKLYN THAY TOLD ME GOODBYE, YOU HAVE RECALL FROM AIRBAG. AND WE DONT CARE ABOUT YOUR DSG PROBLEM ALTHOUGH IT WAS SAID THE COMPANY WILL ALSO APPLY A 10-YEAR, 100,000-MILE TRANSFERRABLE WARRANTY TO THE DSG TRANSMISSIONS. 1. TAKATA RECALL 2. DSG TRANSMISSION, DELAY, JERKS ON THE REAR GEAR. MECHATRONIC ALWAYS OVERHEAT. WHEN TURNING ON THE REAR GEAR IT DOES NOT TURN ON VERY LARGE ENGINE RMP AND THEN QUCKLY TURNS ON, I FIND IT VERY DANGEROUS, BECAUSE I DO NOT KNOW IF THE REAR GEAR IS TURNED ON AT ALL VOLKSWAGEN RECENTLY INITIATED A RECALL ON 2009-10 VWS AND AUDIS EQUIPPED WITH ITS HIGH-PERFORMANCE DIRECT SHIFT GEARBOX (DSG) TRANSMISSIONS. VW SAID IT WOULD REPAIR OR REPLACE THE COMPONENTS IN THE TRANSMISSIONS AT NO CHARGE TO THE VEHICL

MECHANIC CHECKED FOR FAULT CODES AND SEES 02823 REQUIREMENTS FOR LOCKING STEERING COLUMN NOT MET, AND 02861 ELECTRONIC STEERING COLUMN LOCK CHECK SUM ERROR. THERE HAS BEEN A RECALL OF OTHER 2010 VW CCS OVER THIS ISSUE, BUT IT DOES NOT INCLUDE MY VIN NUMBER. THE SYMPTOMS OF THE ISSUE SEEM TO BE EXACTLY THE SAME. THIS WAS HAPPENING INTERMITTENTLY EARLIER IN THE YEAR, BUT NOW IT HAPPENS NEARLY EVERY TIME I START THE CAR IN THE MORNING.

THE CAR WILL JERK AT LOW GEARS. THE TRANSMISSION WILL JAM WHEN GOING FROM 'DRIVE' TO ANY OTHER GEAR. WHEN TRANSMISSION JAMS, CAR ACTS LIKE IF IT WAS IN NEUTRAL, THE "D" FOR DRIVE STARTS FLASHING ON THE DASHBOARD AND THE CAR WONT MOVE. THE TRANSMISSION WILL SOMETIMES JAM ON FIRST GEAR AND WONT SHIFT UP OR DOWN. I MUST TURN OFF AND ON THE CAR FOR THE TRANSMISSION TO START WORKING AGAIN. THE ISSUES ALWAYS HAPPEN AT LOW SPEEDS OR WHEN GOING FROM DRIVE TO REVERSE.

TAKATA RECALL BEFORE PURCHASING MY CAR I ASK THE DEALER AT DIAMOND AUTO SALES IN ALAMEDA CA WAS THERE A RECALL ON MODEL AND HE SAID NO PULLED UP WHAT IM GUESSING A BOGUS WEB SITE THAT SAID THERE IS NO RECALL SO I BOUGHT THE CAR WHEN I FOUND OUT THERE WAS A RECALL HE DIDNT WANT TO TALK TO ME OR GIVE ME ANOTHER CAR

THE INTAKE BLEW WHEN STARTING AFTER SITTING OUTSIDE ON A HOT DAY. THE CAR WAS STATIONARY AND PARKED IN MY WORK PARKING LOT. VW AMERICA CUSTOMER SERVICE WOULD NOT HONOR THE EXTENDED WARRANTEE EVEN THOUGH I WAS ONLY 3K PAST THE EXTENDED WARRANTEE MILEAGE AMOUNT.

I WOULD NEVER RECOMMEND SOMEONE TO PURCHASE A CC OR VOLKSWAGEN CAR EQUIPPED WITH A DSG TRANSMISSION. THE CAR WILL NOT ENGAGE PARK, REVERSE, OR NEUTRAL, AND WHEN IN DRIVE IT SOMETIMES DISENGAGES INTO NEUTRAL LEAVING YOU TO PULL OVER AND PLACE THE CAR IN PARK TO RESTART AND REENGAGE DRIVE. ALSO DOESN'T DOWNSHIFT SMOOTHLY WHATSOEVER. PRETTY MUCH MY 2010 CC IS GREAT AT SOMETIMES GOING FORWARDS, NOT PARKING OR REVERSING....

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 VOLKSWAGEN CC. THE CONTACT RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 16V078000 (AIR BAGS), BUT THE HORN IN THE VEHICLE FAILED TO OPERATE.

THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED WITH AN INOPERABLE CLOCK SPRING THAT NEEDED REPLACEMENT. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 76,000.

HEADLIGHTS INTERMITTENTLY GO OUT ON STARTUP. OCCASIONALLY BOTH LOW BEAMS, MOST OF THE TIME IT IS A SINGLE SIDE. AFTER MULTIPLE TIMES STARTING AND RESTARTING THE VEHICLE IT WILL RELIGHT....IT CAN SIT FOR HOURS AND RELIGHT, OR WON'T RELIGHT THAT DAY...IT CAN STILL CHANGE BETWEEN PASSENGER AND DRIVER SIDE AND BACK. BULBS CHECK OUT OK, BOTH HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLIES REPLACED, STILL NO CHANGE- IT CAN GO OUT AT ANY TIME. DOES NOT SEEM TO BE RELATED TO TEMPERATURE OR HUMIDITY. EXCEPTIONALLY DANGEROUS IF I'M SOMEWHERE AT NIGHT AWAY FROM HOME AND THE HEADLIGHTS WON'T COME ON; THIS ACTUALLY HAPPEND ON A CROSS COUNTRY TRIP IN THE MIDDLE OF THE DESERT OF ARIZONA. I FOUND MULTIPLE PAGES OF SIMILAR PEOPLE ONLINE WHO ARE HAVING THE EXACT SAME PROBLEM...THIS NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED ASAP, VW HAS A HOST OF PROBLEMS THEY REFUSE TO ADDRESS AS WARRANTY EVEN WHEN IT IS PAINFULLY OBVIOUS IT IS WHAT THEY ARE BOUND TO BY THEIR TERMS AND CONDITIONS- THEIR RESPONSIBILITY - REGARDLESS ON WHAT THEY CHOOSE TO COVER HIS IS A SERIOUS SAFET ISSUE THAT NEEDS TO BE ADDRESS BEFORE SOMEBODY IS KILLED TRYING TO DRIVE HOME FROM A PLACE THEY'RE STRANDED WITHOUT HEADLIGHTS.

TAKATA RECALL - IT HAS BEEN OVER A YEAR SINCE THE RECALL WAS ISSUED, BUT MY CAR HAS STILL NOT BEEN REPAIRED. I'VE CONTACTED THE DEALER SEVERAL TIMES AND HAVE BEEN TOLD THAT THEY DO NOT HAVE THE PARTS TO PERFORM THE RECALL.

TAKATA RECALL, I RECENTLY PURCHASED A USED VW CC 2010 AND LATER FOUND OUT ABOUT THIS SCARY AIRBAG RECALL. I CONTACTED VW TO FIND OUT IF MY CAR HAS ALREADY BEEN SERVICED AND FOUND OUT THE SERVICE IS NOT AVAILABLE YET. NO INCIDENT HAS HAPPENED BUT I'M NERVOUS DRIVING AROUND WITH A DEFECTIVE AIRBAG THAT MAY POTENTIALLY KILL WHOEVER IS DRIVING THE CAR. MY ADULT SON ALSO DRIVES IT.

THE VW CC 2010 AND OTHER CC MODELS HAVE A "TRAY" BETWEEN THE TRUNK AND THE BACK WINDOW THAT CRACKS WITH AGE DEPENDING ON HOW MUCH SUN THE CAR IS EXPOSED TO. CARS UNDER WARRANTY WILL GET THE PART REPLACED FOR FREE. THE COST OF THE PART IS $200 AND IS BOUND TO CRACK AGAIN DUE TO THE CURVATURE IN THE DESIGN AND THE MATERIAL.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 VOLKSWAGEN CC. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE HORN FAILED TO WORK WHEN IT WAS DEPRESSED.

THE CONTACT MENTIONED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS SERVICED PER NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 15V483000 (AIR BAGS), BUT THE REMEDY FAILED TO REPAIR THE VEHICLE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE ISSUE. THE VIN WAS UNKNOWN. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 77,000.

2010 VOLKSWAGEN CC. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO NO REMEDY/PARTS AVAILABLE TO REPAIR AIRBAG RECALL NOTICE. *SMD

TAKATA RECALL-WHILE THERE'S NO FIX AVAILABLE YET, WE WERE AREN'T ABLE TO TRADE OUR CAR IN TO GET A NEWER ONE BECAUSE OF THE PROBLEM. TOM BUSH VW IN JACKSONVILLE SAID THEY WOULDN'T TAKE OUR TRADE IN OR RATHER THEY WOULDN'T GIVE US ANY VALUE FOR THE CAR MAKING OUR CAR WORTHLESS.

REGARDING TAKATA RECALL. LET ME START BY SAYING THAT I HAVEN'T BEEN NOTIFIED ABOUT THE RECALL AND HAVE BEEN DRIVING AN UNSAFE VEHICLE WHICH IS UNEXCEPTABLE. I PURCHASED ANOTHER VEHICLE IN DECEMBER 2016 AND INTENDED TO SELL MY VW RIGHT AWAY TO AVOID MAKING 2 CAR PAYMENTS, INSURANCES ETC. TO MY SURPRISE NOONE WOULD BY THE VEHICLE AND ONE OF THE POSSIBLE BUYERS THAT I HAD INFORMED ME ABOUT THE RECALL. OBVIOUSLY I WAS VERY FRUSTRATED THAT NOT ONLY I WASN'T NOTIFIED ABOUT THE ISSUE TO START WITH AND WAS DRIVING AN UNSAFE CAR BUT NOW I'M STUCK WITH THE VEHICLE NOONE WILL BUY BECAUSE THERE IS NO FIX TO IT AND THEY'VE BEEN WORKING ON IT FOR OVER A YEAR. I TALKED TO VW AND REQUESTED A BUY BACK BUT JUST LEARNED THAT VW WILL NOT DO IT. I'M A SINGLE MOTHER AND CAN'T AFFORD KEEPING AND MAINTAINING TWO VEHICLES. IS THERE ANYONE ELSE I CAN REACH OUT TO HELP ME?

I PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE AS A CERTIFIED PRE-OWNED IN 4/2013 AT WHICH TIME IT HAD 44423 MILES ON IT. I HAVE HAD ALL REQUIRED MAINTENANCE, RECALLS AND REPAIRS PERFORMED AT THE DEALERSHIP THAT I PURCHASED FROM. NOW AFTER 3.5 YEARS OF OWNING THE VEHICLE AND ONLY PUTTING 31,577 MILES ON IT, THE CAR WOULDN'T ENGAGE WHEN TRYING TO PARK. WHEN PARALLEL PARKING, I PUT THE CAR IN REVERSE AND IT MAKES A NOISE LIKE IT IS TRYING TO GO INTO REVERSE AND IF IT WON'T ENGAGE THE "R" STARTS FLASHING AND THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON. I HAVE TO PLACE THE VEHICLE IN PARK (THE "P" WILL THEN FLASH) AND TURN IT OFF AND TURN IT ON AND THEN IT WILL WORK. USUALLY AFTER DRIVING THE CAR 3 TIMES OR SO THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT TURNS OFF AND CLEARS, BUT THEN A DAY OR SO LATER THE SAME THING HAPPENS. THIS HAPPENED LEAST 3 TIMES A WEEK. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND REPAIR PERFORMED TO CORRECT COMPLAINTS WAS (1) REPLACEMENT OF THE DUAL CLUTCH PACK WHICH REQUIRED THE REMOVAL AND RE-INSTALL OF MY TRANSMISSION WHICH COST ME $2,600.00. I BELIEVE THE DSG TRANSMISSION IS FAULTY. NOW AFTER THE CAR HAS BEEN REPAIRED, I AM STILL HAVING PROBLEMS WITH THE TRANSMISSION JERKING WHILE GOING FROM 2ND TO 3RD GEAR WHILE DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY. I HAVE OWNED 3 PREVIOUS VOLKSWAGENS AND CUSTOMER CARE WAS ONE OF THE REASONS THAT BROUGHT ME BACK TO THESE CARS. UNFORTUNATELY, CUSTOMER CARE IS PRETTY MUCH NON-EXISTENT NOW. I AM REALLY DISAPPOINTED. ALSO, I HAVE HAD THE CLOCK SPRING MALFUNCTION 3 TIMES, WHICH IS 1 OF THE 2 RECALLS FO

TAKATA RECALL-RECEIVED NOTICE FEBRUARY 9, 2016. PARTS STILL NOT AVAILABLE. DELAY OF ALMOST ONE YEAR IS UNACCEPTABLE WHEN IT COMES TO SAFETY.

"TAKATA RECALL" ON APRIL OF 2016 I RECEIVED A SAFETY RECALL 69M9 TAKATA SDI DRIVER FRONTAL AIRBAG FROM VW. I LIVE IN MIAMI, (ZONE A COVERS STATES WITH HIGH TEMPERATURE CYCLING AND HUMIDITY. TIME UNTIL UNSAFE PROPELLANT DEGRADATION MAY OCCUR IS PROJECTED AT BETWEEN SIX AND NINE YEARS.) , AND THE DEALERSHIP HAS NOT YET GIVEN ME A RECALL DATE.

RECALL, I HAVE NOT HEARD FROM TAKATA ON THIS RECALL, NO EMAIL, LETTER, NOTHING, I JUST HOPE NOTHING EVER GOES WRONG.

"TAKATA RECALL!" RECIEVED RECALL LETTER IN JAN. 2016. EVERYTIME I CALL DEALERSHIP IM TOLD PARTS ARE NOT IN. MY CAR ALREADY STOPPED RUNNING AND I HAD TO HAVE IT TOWED INTO A MECHANIC WHERE HE KNEW THAT THE FUEL INJECTION ISSUE WAS A RECALL. I HAD TO PAY HIM $100.00 FOR TAKING MY CAR APART AND TELLING ME IT WAS A FAMILIAR ISSUE HE HAD WHEN WORKING ON ANOTHER VW..AND THAT I SHOULD CALL VW AND ASK IF THERE WAS A RECALL. OF COURSE, THERE WAS. I THEN HAD TO PAY FOR A 2ND TOW FROM THAT SHOP TO VW. THEY FIXED THAT RECALL..THAT I NEVER EVEN GOT A LETTER NOTIFYING ME OF THE RECALL. VW FIXED IT. YET NOW I AM STILL WAITING AS MANY OTHERS FOR THE PARTS TO COME IN SO MY CAR CAN BE REPAIRED WITH THIS AIRBAG ISSUE. AS FAR AS IM CONCERNED THIS CAR WAS MADE HORRIBLY UNSAFE AND ITS FALLING APART, ASIDE FROM THE OTHER WORK IVE PAID INTO HAVING DONE TO IT. AM I SUPPOSED TO KEEP PRAYING I DONT GET A SERIOUS INJURED OR FATAL ACCIDENT. AS, THERE HAS ALREADY BEEN BOTH SERIOUSLY INJURED AND FATAL ACCIDENTS AS A RESULT FROM THIS UNREPAIRED ISSUE..I DONT FEEL SAFE EVER GETTING IN MY CAR. IVE ALEADY BEEN IN AN ACCIDENT WITH HARD IMPACT AND IT DIDNT DEPLOY. I AM REQUESTING THAT THIS CAR BE BOUGHT BACK FROM ME, OR TAKEN BACK AND PUT ME IN A SAFE REPLACEMENT CAR OF NOTHING LESS THAN EQUAL VALUE. OR AT THE VERY LEAST PUT ME IN A RENTAL CAR AT YOUR EXPENSE . THIS IS A MATTER THAT IF NOT RESOLVED QUICK WILL BE REVIEWED OVER BY SOMEONE THAT CAN DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT. LIVES DO MATTER!

THERE'S ALREADY A RECALL FOR THIS VEHICLE BUT VOKSWAGEN TOLD ME THAT MY VEHICLE SPECIFICALLY IT'S NOT SHOWING ANY RECALLS. VOLKSWAGEN REFUSES TO ADMIT THAT MY VEHICLE HAS THIS PROBLEM. PLEASE HELP

ACCORDING TO THE VW DEALER I HAVE TO WAIT TO BE CALLED BUT NHTSA WEB PAGE STATES THAT FOR VEHICLES IN ZONE A (HOT AND HUMID) FROM MAY 2011 AND OLDER THE REPLACEMENT SHOULD HAVE BEEN SCHEDULED IN MAY 16, 2016. IT IS DECEMBER 2016 AND I AM STILL WAITING. PLEASE ADVISE.

CLOCK SPRING RECALL RECENTLY MY AIRBAG LIGHT WENT ON AND WHEN I MAKE A TURN WITH A STEERING WHEEL ROTATION OF OVER 270* MY HORN WILL GO OFF, I ALSO ONLY HAVE INTERMITTENT USE OF THE STEERING WHEEL CONTROLS TO MY INSTRUMENTATION. THERE IS A RECALL ON THE YEAR AND MAKE OF MY CAR FOR THE CLOCK SPRING, HOWEVER MY VIN IS NOT INCLUDED. THE SIGNS POINT TO A DEFECTIVE CLOCK SPRING TO WHICH I LOST THE FUNCTIONALITY OF MY AIRBAG AND THE ELECTRONIC FUNCTIONALITY OF MY STEERING WHEEL. I CALLED VW SERVICE DEPARTMENT AND THEY SAID MY VEHICLE IS NOT COVERED UNDER THE RECALL SO THERE IS NO NEED TO BRING IT IN. I REALLY DON'T FEEL SAFE OPERATING THIS VEHICLE CONSIDERING THERE HAS BEEN AN OPEN RECALL INVOLVING THE TAKATA RECALL FOR WELL OVER A YEAR. (VW TOLD ME THAT THEY WILL CONTACT ME WHEN PARTS ARE AVAILABLE TO FIX). THIS HAPPENED WHEN I MADE A LEFT TURN INTO A PARKING SPOT, THE AIRBAG LIGHT WHEN ON AND IT SAID "SERVICE AIRBAG". *TR

TAKATA RECALL HAS YET TO BE ADDRESSED ON MY VEHICLE. WHEN WILL VOLKSWAGEN BE ABLE TO MAKE THE REPLACEMENT? I AM CONCERNED THAT IT HAS BEEN MORE THAN NINE MONTHS WITHOUT A SOLUTION.

WHILE DRIVING MY VEHICLE, I HEARD A LOW POP, THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT TURN AND COLLIDED WITH 4 OTHER PARKED VEHICLES. UPON INSPECTING MY CAR AFTER THE INCIDENT, THE RIGHT FRONT WHEEL WAS COMPLETELY UNHINGED FROM THE VEHICLES STEERING AND SUSPENSION SYSTEM. VEHICLE TOWED TO BODY SHOP AND UPON FURTHER INSPECTION IN THE DAY TIME, THE ENTIRE LOWER AND UPPER CONTROL ARM HAD COMPLETELY FAILED. THE RIGHT FRONT AXLE WAS RIPPED FROM THE STEERING KNUCKLE, A PART OF THE LOWER CONTROL ARM WHERE THE BUSHING WOULD BE WAS BROKEN. THE ENTIRE RIGHT FRONT SUSPENSION SYSTEM HAD BASICALLY COLLAPSED, CAUSING ME TO LOOSE CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE'S STEERING SYSTEM. THIS VEHICLE IS SERVICED AT OURISMAN VOLKSWAGEN OF ROCKVILLE MD. THEY DID NOT NOTIFY ME THAT THIS WAS AN ISSUE. THE VEHICLE DID NOT EXHIBIT SIGNS THAT THERE WAS A POTENTIAL PROBLEM WITH THE SUSPENSION SYSTEM SUCH AS VIBRATIONS IN THE FRONT END. THERE WOULD BE AN OCCASIONAL CLUNK HEARD WHEN REVERSING, BUT WAS TOLD THAT WAS FROM THE ENGINE MOVING IN THE SUBFRAME AND THE REMEDY WOULD BE TO INSTALL SUBFRAME BOLTS. *TR

TAKATA INFLATORS: I WAS NOTIFIED OF THIS RECALL ALMOST ONE YEAR AGO, YET MY DEALER STILL DOES NOT HAVE THE PARTS. WATCHING A REPORT YESTERDAY I LEARNED THAT THE VEHICLES MOST VULNERABLE ARE THOSE 6 YEARS OLD AND KEPT IN A HOT HUMID CLIMATE. MY CAR MEETS BOTH OF THESE CRITERIA. I AM UNCOMFORTABLE DRIVING THIS VEHICLE.

WHILE DRIVING FROM A STAND STILL AT A TRAFFIC LIGHT, THE TRANSMISSION (AUTO DSG) FAILED TO CHANGE TO SECOND GEAR BUT RATHER DISENGAGED PREMATURELY CAUSING LOSS OF MOVEMENT. THIS OCCURRED AT AN INTERSECTION AND ALMOST CAUSED AN ACCIDENT. DEPRESSING THE ACCELERATOR ONLY CAUSED THE ENGINE TO REV UP BUT NO MOVEMENT (AS IF THE TRANSMISSION WAS IN NEUTRAL). ONLY WAY TO RECOVER WAS TO PUT ON HAZARDS LIGHTS, PLACE TRANSMISSION IN PARK, SWITCHED OFF THE CAR, SWITCHED ON AFTER 30 SECONDS AND DRIVE AWAY. *TR

TAKATA RECALL. MY CAR'S VIN SHOWS THAT MY DRIVER'S SIDE AIRBAG IS INCLUDED IN THIS RECALL. VW IS NOT EVEN LISTED IN THE PRIORITY GROUPS, YET MY CAR IS NOW 7 YEARS OLD AND I'M IN ZONE A (WHERE THE PROPELLANT IS SAID TO DEGRADE TO AN UNSAFE LEVEL IN 6-9 YEARS). I KNOW MANY PEOPLE (NON-VW DRIVERS) WHO'VE HAD PASSENGER-SIDE BAGS REPLACED. I RESPECTFULLY REQUEST DRIVER'S-SIDE AIRBAGS ARE PRIORITIZED OVER PASSENGER-SIDE; PASSENGERS CAN RIDE IN THE BACK SEAT OR NOT AT ALL, BUT A CAR IS COMPLETELY USELESS IF IT'S UNSAFE FOR THE DRIVER/ CANNOT BE DRIVEN. OR PLEASE REQUIRE VW TO PROVIDE LOANERS; THEY ARE NOT DOING SO AT THIS TIME. I SPOKE WITH THEM AGAIN TODAY. IF NOT, WHAT AM I TO DO? I LIVE IN LA, WHERE A CAR IS NECESSARY.
