TAKATA RECALL PURCHASED THIS CAR AFTER FEBUARY RECALL. DID NOT KNOW THERE WAS A RECALL UNTIL I RECEIVED A NOTICE IN APRIL. DEALER NEVER MENTIONED THE RECALL OR THAT THERE WAS NO SOLUTION! I AM TAKING THIS CAR BACK TO DEALER TOMORROW AND ASKING FOR A REFUND! HOW CAN THEY SELL CARS WITH KNOWN ISSUES AND NO SOLUTION?
TAKATA RECALL I LEASE A VW '14 CC AND RECEIVED THE RECALL LETTER IN THE MAIL IN APRIL AND VW IS YET TO HAVE A SOLUTION OR A REMEDY TO SOLVE THE AIRBAG ISSUE.

CAR HAS 8200 MILES. STARTED TO NOTICE WHEN EXIT THE FREEWAY A RUMBLING SOUND, AFTER FEW TRIPS I NARROWED THE PROBLEM TO FRONT DISC BRAKES. SEEMS LIKE THEY ARE WARPED. AFTER 2 TIMES OF TAKING THE VEHICLE FOR INSPECTION TO SAVANNAH VOLKSWAGEN, THEY GAVE ME FEEDBACK THAT PROBLEM IS NORMAL. THE PROBLEM IS MORE ACCUTE WHEN BRAKES WARM UP A BIT AFTER DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY. DONT KNOW WHAT TO DO SINCE VW CUSTOMER SERVICE TELLS IS OK.
DRIVING ON US-95 OUTSIDE OF PHILADELPHIA PA. CHANGED LANES FROM LEFT LANE TO CENTER. SMALL RUT BETWEEN LANES. RIGHT FROM WHEEL FAILED. WHEN CHANGING THE TIRE, I NOTICED THE WHEEL COMPLETELY CRACKED ALONG THE CIRCUMFERENCE ON THE FLAT SECT WHERE IT MEETS THE SIDE RAMP OF THE WHEEL GOING TOWARDS THE BEAD. THE TIRE STAYED IN PLACE, BUT THE WHEEL BROKE INTO 2 SECTIONS. THERE IS NO EVIDENCE OF POT HOLE DAMAGE. LIKE A LARGE CHUCK OR CRACK IN SIDE WALL OF TIRE OR RIM. I BELIEVE THIS IS A DEFECT. *TR
NORMAL DRIVING AUTO WHEN TIRE WENT TOTALLY FLAT. REPLACED IT WITH SPARE TIRE. PARKED CAR AND TWO HOURS LATER, A SECOND TIRE HAD GONE FLAT. NO DISCERNIBLE DAMAGE TO TIRE OR RIM TO ACCOUNT FOR FLAT. *TR
I LEASED A VW CC 2014 MY VEHICLE ON NOV 20 2014. ON DEC 1 2014, WHEN I WAS BACKING UP AT MY OFFICE LOCATION I SAW A WHITE LINE ON THE DISPLAY UNIT. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER TO FIX IT. THEY REVIEWED THE ISSUE AND REPLACED THE CENTER DISPLAY. HOWEVER ON 11-DEC-2014 THE SAME ISSUE OF CENTER LINE APPEARED ON THE SCREEN. AFTER HAVING THE CAR FOR A DAY, THE VW TOLD ME ITS BY DESIGN THAT A CENTER SHALL COME UP WHEN THERE IS SUN. THIS IS SAFETY ISSUE AND I HAVE PICTURES AND VIDEOS OF THIS BEHAVIOR. I HOPE YOU CAN HELP ME RESOLVE THIS. *TR

NHTSA publishes every complaint as the owner wrote it and investigates only a fraction. Spelling, capitalisation and judgement are the filer’s own. What carries weight is repetition: the same component failing the same way across many filings, and whether the manufacturer eventually opened a recall for it.
