1) SEATBELT INDICATOR SOUNDS WHEN DRIVES BELT IS CONNECTED AND IS THE ONLY ONE IN THE VEHICLE; NO ONE OR ITEMS ARE IN ANY OF THE OTHER SEATS (SAME ISSUE AS IN THE 2006 JETTA). 2) WIPER MOTOR FAILED - WIPERS WORKED INTERMITTENTLY WHEN FUNCTIONING. 3) HEADLINER IS SEPARATING AND DROOPING IN REAR AND OBSTRUCTING THE VIEW THROUGH THE REAR VIEW MIRROR (SAME ISSUE AS IN THE 2006 JETTA). 4) IGNITION COIL'S AND MAP SENSOR ARE CONTINUOUSLY FAILING (SAME ISSUE AS IN THE 2006 JETTA).

KEY GETS STUCK IN IGNITION WHEN TURNING ENGINE OFF

UNABLE TO REMOVE KEY FROM IGNITION TO TURN OFF CAR ; CAR IN "PARK"

PASSENGER AIRBAG LIGHT RANDOMLY CAME ON BECAUSE OF SOME SORT WIRING ISSUE. HEADLIGHT BULBS CONSTANTLY SHORT OUT. I'VE HAD TO CHANGE ATLEAST 10 BULBS IN LESS THAN A YEAR. HEADLIGHTS GO OUT AND TAILIGHTS... THESE ARE 2 SEPERATE ISSUES. BUT IF YOU GOOGLE IT, THEY ARE BOTH COMMON ISSUES. IT'S BEEN AN ISSUE ON MY CAR FOR YEARS, BUT I DIDN'T REALIZE I COULD REPORT IT.

VW JETTA 2011 HAS BEEN DYING WHEN IDLING, IN PARK AND WHILE DECELERATING. IT WILL BE STOPPED AT A STOP SIGN OR RED LIGHT AND JUST LOSE POWER. IT HAS TO THEN BE PUT IN PARK AND THE KEY MUST BE TURNED TO COME BACK ON. THIS ALSO HAPPENS WHEN COMING TO A STOP. RECENTLY, IT HAPPENED COMING OFF THE HIGHWAY GOING 45 MPH. CAR HAD TO COAST AND THE BRAKES WERE RIDDEN TO A STOP WHERE CAR HAD TO BE TURNED BACK ON. DEALERSHIP HAS ALLEGEDLY REPLACED ISSUES WITH THE EPC LIGHT COMING ON, TIMING BELT AND FELL PUMP. THE PROBLEM PERSISTS. THOUSANDS HAVE BEEN SPENT ON THIS ISSUE AND THE CAR KEEPS DYING. IT CURRENTLY HAS 115K MILES ON IT. THERE IS ALSO AN ISSUE WHEN PUMPING GAS AT A GAS STATION. EVERY TIME THE CAR IS FILLED UP, IT WILL NOT STAY THE FIRST TIME TURNING THE KEY. THE GAS PEDAL MUST BE PRESSED A NUMBER OF TIME FOR THE ENGINE TO TURN OVER AND THEN THE GAS PEDAL MUST BE PUMPED TO KEEP THE ENGINE ON. RANDOMLY DYING ON THE HIGHWAY, ON CITY STREETS AND IN INTERSECTION IS VERY DANGEROUS AND WILL RESULT IN DAMAGE TO CARS, INJURIES AND DEATHS.

AT 46,800 MILES THE ABS CONTROL MODULE HAS FAILED. WHEN STARTING UP THE CAR, NUMEROUS WARNING LIGHTS INCLUDING (ABS, TRACTION, AIR BAG, AND BRAKE) ILLUMINATE. THESE LIGHTS REMAIN ON WITH ENGINE RUNNING AND VEHICLE IN MOTION. THERE ARE SEVERAL PAST AND CURRENT CLASS ACTION SUITES FOR THIS EXPENSIVE VOLKSWAGEN $3500 REPAIR.

WHEN I PURCHASE THIS CAR 2 DAYS AFTER I PURCHASE THE BRAKE LIGHT CAME ON FLASHING THE CAR IDLES TOO HIGH WHAT COULD BE WRONG WITH IT

"TAKATA RECALL" IM HAVING ISSUES WITH THE LIGHTS ON DASH WHEN I PRESS ON BREAK THE OIL LAMP COMES ON. THEN THE TRACTION CONTROL AND ABS LIGHTS COME ON. THE FRONT RIGHT HEADLIGHT WORKS HALF THE TIME AND THE SAME WITH BREAKS THE LIGHTS COME ON WHEN THE WANT TO. THESE ARE THE ONLY ISSUES IM HAVING SO FAR EXCEPT THE AC DONT WORK AND ALWAYS GOES OUT!

WHILE PARKED THE IGNITION KEY FAILED TO TURN " AS IF STEERING WHEEL LOCK WAS WELDED SOLID". I COULD NOT TURN THE KEY AT ALL. CAR COULD NOT BE STARTED AFTER REPEATED ATTEMPTS, AND HAD TO BE TOWED TO A REPAIR AVAILABLE.AS A RESULT I HAD TO CALL A NEIGHBOR TO TAKE MY WIFE TO THE HOSPITAL. PARTS HAVE BEEN ORDERED, BUT THE MECHANIC HAS NOT RECEIVED A DELIVERY CONFIRMATION DATE. STEERING WHEEL IS COMPLETELY IMMOVABLE.

HAVING ISSUES WITH IGNITION SWITCH. I PARKED VEHICLE IN FRONT OF STORE LOCATION AND WHEN I RETURNED TO MY VEHICLE THE KEY WOULD NOT TURN. I RESEARCHED ONLINE AND SPOKE TO A MECHANIC TO MOVE THE STEERING WHEEL LEFT AND RIGHT TO SEE IF THE SWITCH HAD JUST LOCKED BUT AFTER MORE THAN AN HOUR OF THIS IT STILL WOULD NOT TURN. MECHANIC WENT TO TRY TO WORK ON IT AND WAS ALSO UNABLE TO DO SO AND REFERRED ME TO AN IMPORT MECHANIC AS HE HAD RECENTLY REPLACED ANOTHER VOLKSWAGEN WITH THE SAME ISSUE. CURRENTLY VEHICLE IS NOW HAVING TO BE TOWED TO MECHANIC AS KEY CANNOT BE TURNED. THIS SEEMS TO BE A RECURRING ISSUE WITH VOLKSWAGEN VEHICLES.

I'LL TURN MY CAR OFF AND WAIT FOR THE RPM'S TO GO BELOW 1,000 SOMETIMES I'LL SHIFT INTO REVERSE AND MY CAR WILL KICK AND THEN THE ENGINE LIGHT TURNS ON. I HAVE GONE TO GET THE ERROR CHECKED BY MULTIPLE COMPUTERS; THE SAME ERROR READS AS TORCH CONVERTER CIRCUIT MALFUNCTION. AS I PUT THE CAR INTO DRIVE IT JUMPS AGAIN SOMETIMES SOUNDING LIKE A SPRING IS DOING SOMETHING WEIRD. WHEN I DRIVE THE CAR THE ENGINE REVS AND DOES NOT SHIFT GEARS. THE CAR MOVES BUT IS STUCK IN FIRST GEAR. I CAN'T GO ABOVE 59 MPH NOR DO I WANT TO REV MY ENGINE AT 4500 RPMS. I GOT MY JETTA AT 66,000 MILES AND IT BEEN DOING EVER SINCE. MY CAR IS CURRENTLY AT 95,000 MILES AND THE PROBLEM HAPPENS INTERMITTENTLY.

PREMATURE LOW BEAM HEADLIGHT BULB FAILURE. THE LOW BEAM H7 BULBS FAIL AFTER JUST 2 TO 3 MONTHS OF USE. I HAVE USED OEM BULBS, SYLVANIA BULBS OF EVERY LEVEL, AND THE BULBS STILL FAIL AFTER A SHORT TIME. DOING A QUICK ONLINE SEARCH WILL SHOW MANY PEOPLE HAVE THIS SAME PROBLEM WITH EVEN NEWER (SAME BODY STYLE) JETTAS.

DRIVING MY CAR I WOULD COME TO A STOP AND MY CAR WOULD SHUT OFF. MY BATTERY LIGHT WOULD THEN APPEAR. HAD BATTERY AND ALTERNATOR CHECKED 4X WAS TOLD THAT THEY ARE IN PERFECT CONDITION. BATTERY COMES ON BUT RADIO STILL ON. I WAS TOLD THAT IT HAD TO BE A WIRING PROBLEM. SO I TOOK IT TO MY VOLKSWAGEN DEALERSHIP AND THEY KEEP TELLING ME THEY CAN'T DIAGNOSE A PROBLEM. I DON'T FEEL COMFORTABLE AND SAFE DRIVING THE CAR ON CITY STREETS AND SOMETIMES ON THE INTERSTATE. I JUST NEED MY CAR FIXED IT HAS CAUSED ME SO MUCH STRESSED I AM NOW ON HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE MEDICATION.

WE PURCHASED THE VEHICLE AND A COUPLE OF DAYS LATER WE WENT TO HAVE THE BRAKES CHECKED AND FOUND OUT ALL THE BRAKES AND ROTORS WERE RUSTED SO BAD THE BUSHING WAS BROKEN OFF AND THERE WAS NO EMERGENCY BRAKE. THIS WAS SOMETHING THAT WOULD NOT PASS INSPECTION YET THE DEALER SAID HE JUST HAD IT PASS INSPECTION. ALSO THE TI-ROD BAR IN THE BACK WAS BROKEN THE REAR SPRINGS WERE RUSTED AND BROKE.

KEY GETS STUCK IN IGNITION WHEN TURNING ON OR OFF THE ENGINE.

WILL NOT START AND STALLING WHEN SITTING AND DRIVING ON ROAD NO WARNING LIGHTS

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 VOLKSWAGEN JETTA. AFTER INSERTING THE KEY IN THE IGNITION, THE IGNITION SWITCH WOULD NOT TURN AND THE VEHICLE COULD NOT BE STARTED. BAXTER VOLKSWAGEN (7108 S 124TH CIR, LAVISTA, NE) AND THE MANUFACTURER WERE NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 150,000.

I HAVE A PROBLEM WITH THE IGNITION KEY SWITCH THAT HAS BEEN MORE DIFFICULT TO START UP AND TURN IT OFF WHEN IS STATIONARY OF CURSE. THE SWITCH ITS GETTING STUCK OR JAMMED AND WONT MOVE ANY WHERE UNTIL SO MANY TRIES AND MOVING THE DRIVE WHEEL. I SPEND 1 HRS YESTERDAY 04/13/19 TRYING TO POWER THE ENGINE OFF BECAUSE OF THE IGNITION KEY AND MY WIFE DRIVE THE CAR TOO BUT SHE IS NOT STRONG ENOUGH TO TURN THE ENGINE OFF AND SHE CALLED ME TO HELP HER. I HAVE THIS PROBLEM SINCE JANUARY 2019 AND I DON'T KNOW WHAT I HAVE TO DO. I HAVE OTHER PROBLEM WITH THE DRIVER SEAT THAT IS CRACKING WHEN I'M DRIVING AND PRESS THE BREAK PEDAL MY SEAT MAKE A CLICK AND NOISE EVERY TIME THE CAR CHANGE THE SPEED.

KEY GETS STUCK IN IGNITION AND I CANNOT TURN OFF THE ENGINE.

THE DIAGNOSTICS MECHANISM FOR LATE MODEL VOLKSWAGEN IS VIA THE RADIO, THIS IS THE ONLY WAY THE DEALER OR MECHANIC CAN DIAGNOSE ANY ISSUES WITH THESE VEHICLES IS VIA THE RADIO. I WAS TOLD BY THE DEALER THAT I COULD NOT BUY A 3RD PARTY RADIO, BECAUSE THEY CAN'T RUN DIAGNOSTICS ON THE VEHICLE. THIS IS A HUGE SAFETY RISK IF A DEALER OR MECHANIC CAN'T LOOK AT THE DIAGNOSTICS ON THE VEHICLE. MY ONLY OPTION IS TO BUY A RADIO FROM VOLKSWAGEN SO THEY CAN RUN SAFETY DIAGNOSTICS. WE NEED AN IMMEDIATE RECALL ON ALL AFFECTED VOLKSWAGEN WITH THIS RADIO ISSUE. AGAIN, THIS IS A HUGE SAFETY RISK!!! THE DEALER IS SELLING RADIOS ON THE FLOOR TO FIX THIS ISSUE - SEE ATTACHED PICTURE. I WAS TOLD BY THE MANAGER OF THE VW AUTO SHOP THAT ALL DIAGNOSTICS COMPUTER INFORMATION ABOUT THE CAR IS DONE VIA THE RADIO - WITHOUT THIS INFORMATION IT IS A HUGE SAFETY AND CARS ARE OUT ON THE ROAD WITH POTENTIALLY BIG PROBLEMS THAT COULD CAUSE A HUGE SAFETY RISK TO DRIVERS. PLEASE INVESTIGATE VW THAT THEY MAYBE TRYING TO COVER-UP. THANK YOU HERE IS A LINK MANY OTHER FOLKS WITH THE SAME ISSUE: HTTPS://WWW.CARGURUS.COM/CARS/DISCUSSION-T41202_DS648928

KEY STUCK IN IGNITION SWITCH IN THE ON POSITION

FRONT DRIVER SIDE COIL SPRING SNAPPED WHILE TURNING AND BACKING UP FROM DRIVEWAY. MILEAGE IS $73K. TO REPLACE THE SPRING AT THE VW-CERTIFIED DEALER WAS $1100.

THE ABS MODULE ON THIS MODEL KEEPS BREAKING EVERY 88,00 MILES

I WAS RETURNING HOME. STOPPED AT A LOCAL STORE AND WHEN I RETURNED TO THE CAR AND STARTED IT I HAD A LOT OF LIGHTS ON THE DASH FLASHING. I TRIED TO BACK AWAY FROM THE PARKING SPOT AND WHEN I PUT THE CAR IN REVERSE THE ENGINE WOULD DIE. I CHECKED THE BRAKE FLUID LEVEL AND IT WAS ON THE LOW MARK. I MANAGED TO MAKE IT TO A LOCAL PARTS STORE, THE SPEEDOMETER QUIT WORKING. I OBTAINED SOME DOT 4 BRAKE FLUID. JUST AFTER I FILLED THE BRAKE FLUID TO THE FULL MARK THE LIGHTS ON THE DASH WENT OUT AND ALL SEEMED FINE. SEVERAL DAYS LATER THE LIGHTS CAME BACK INDICATING THE BRAKING ANTILOCK SYSTEM HAD QUIT WORKING (THE SAME LIGHTS AS BEFORE) I TOOK IT TO A VW DEALER AND SPENT $453. TO FIND OUT IT HAD A "LOT OF CODES" AT THAT POINT I DECIDED TO TAKE THE CAR HOME AND PARK IT. WHEN I STARTED THE CAR AT THE DEALERSHIP I HAD NO LIGHTS THE CAR PREFORMED FLAWLESSLY THE REST OF THE DAY.

BROKEN TRAILING ARM AFTER 3 DAYS OF PURCHASE FROM DEALERSHIP DEALERSHIP REFUSES TO FIX IT RECALL FOR MY CAR REAR TRAILING ARM I WAS DRIVING AND THE CAR STARTED JUMPING IT SEEMED LIKE, LOST CONTROL OF MY VEHICLE THEN I COULD NO LONGER DRIVE IT. TOWED CAR TO DEALERSHIP AND WAS TOLD THAT I BROKE THE REAR CONTROL ARM AND REFUSED TO FIX IT. I DO BELIEVE THAT IT IS THE REAR TRAILING ARM. IS MY BROKEN TRAILING ARM COVERED UNDER THE RECALL? IF SO, ISN'T MY DEALERSHIP WHERE I GOT THE CAR REQUIRED TO FIX THIS?

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 VOLKSWAGEN JETTA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS EXPERIENCING THE SAME FAILURE AS LISTED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 11V196000 (ELECTRICAL SYSTEM). THERE WERE NO WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO A DEALER. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 76,223.

MY RADIO STOPPED WORKING. MY WARRANTY JUST RAN OUT AND THEN MY RADIO GOES. I DO NOT THINK THIS IS A COINCIDENCE. AFTER READING MANY ARTICLES ONLINE I SEE THAT THIS IS KNOWN ISSUE. IN TODAY'S WORLD "KNOWN ISSUE" MEANS THAT WE KNOW IT'S A PROBLEM, BUT WE ARE NOT GOING TO DO ANYTHING TO FIX IT. VW SHOULD BE RESPONSIBLE FOR THIS FIX. THE VEHICLE WAS RUNNING AND THE RADIO, OUT OF THE BLUE STOPPED WORKING.

WHILE IN CAR WAS DRIVING FOR APPROXIMATELY 10 MIN AT LEAST AND NOTICED CAR WAS SMOKING. PULLED INTO MY DRIVEWAY AND POPPED THE HOOD TO CHECK WHY IT WAS SMOKING AND NOTICED VEHICLE WAS UNDER FIRE. CAR WAS PARKED PRIOR FOR ABOUT 2 HOURS.

WIND NOISE COMING FROM DRIVER SIDE DOOR.

LOW-BEAM HEADLIGHTS GO DARK WITHIN A YEAR AT BEST. I HAVE REPLACED HEADLIGHT BULBS AT LEAST 6 TIMES SINCE I'VE OWNED IT. I RECENTLY REPLACED ONE BULB AND THE NEXT DAY IT WAS OUT. UPON INSPECTION, THE BULB DOES NOT APPEAR TO BE 'BURNED-OUT'. OTHER LIGHTS FUNCTION, INCLUDING THE LOW-BEAM ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE CAR.

2011 VOLKSWAGEN JETTA. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARD TO VEHICLE STALLING AND SHUTTING OFF WHEN SLOWING TO STOP AND AFTER REPAIRS INCIDENT HAPPENED AGAIN. CONSUMER REQUEST REIMBURSEMENT FOR REPAIRS. *AS *JS

WHEN DRIVING CAR THE ENGINE WILL STALL AND LOCK UP THE POWER STEERING. IT MAY HAPPEN 3-4 TIMES WITHIN IN 3 MILE DISTANCE. IT HAS BEEN TAKEN TO TWO DIFFERENT AUTO REPAIR SHOPS ONE OF WHICH DEALS ONLY WITH GERMAN MOTORS. THE PROBLEM CANNOT BE DIAGNOSED. AFTER REPLACING THE FUEL PUMP AND CRANK SHAFT SENSOR THE PROBLEM STILL EXISTS. THIS IS SO DANGEROUS TO DRIVE AS YOU DON'T KNOW WHEN IT WILL HAPPEN. PLEASE HELP WITH SUGGESTIONS AS THE MECHANICS AREN'T ABLE TO DIAGNOSE THE PROBLEM. THANK YOU

ALWAYS HAD ELECTRICAL ISSUES, ALWAYS CHANGING FUSE FOR HORN, HORN "NEVER" WORKS! ISSUES WITH IGNITION, DIFFICULT TO TURN OFF, NOT CANNOT TURN ON AT ALL, KEY WON'T TURN ENOUGH, CONTACT VOLKSWAGEN, ADVISED OUT OF WARRANTY, NO RECALL FOR ISSUES I AM HAVING, VW DOES NOT STAND BEHIND THEIR PRODUCT-VERY EXPENSIVE TO FIX, VW WILL DO NOTHING,TOLD ME NOT A COMMON ISSUE (ALL THEY HAVE TO DO IS READ THROUGH THE COMPLAINTS ON HERE AND FIND LOTS OF PEOPLE W/SAME ISSUE(S) WOULD NOT RECOMMEND VW TO ANYONE!

MY VOLKSWAGEN JETTA 2011 SEEMS TO HAVE MISFIRE. IT HAS A CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ON. THE CAR SHAKES WHEN SLOW DOWN AND/OR AT STOPS. VW CERTIFIED MECHANIC TRIED CHANGING THE PLUGS, AND CLEANING THE VALVES BUT NOTHING HELPED. HE ALSO TIED SHAFT CRANK SENSOR THAT DID NOT HELP EITHER. FINALLY THE DIAGNOSIS REPORT INDICATED THAT IT'S TIMING CHAIN ISSUE THAT NEED TO BE REPLACED.

IGNITION KEY WILL NOT TURN ENGINE OFF, CANNOT REMOVE WITHOUT 10 MINUTES OF JIGGLING. SECOND OCCURRENCE, SECOND REPAIR. MY VEHICLE HAS 49,800 MILES. IGNITION MODULE AND ASSOCIATED PARTS WERE REPLACED IN 2015 DUE TO FAILURE AND NOW IN SEPTEMBER 2018 DUE TO FAILURE. KEY ALSO BROKE DUE TO REPEATED ATTEMPTS TO REMOVE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 VOLKSWAGEN JETTA. ON MULTIPLE OCCASIONS, THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT IMMEDIATELY START. WHILE DRIVING, THE VEHICLE WOULD SUDDENLY SHUT OFF WITHOUT WARNING. ON ONE OCCASION, AFTER DRIVING INTO A BUSY INTERSECTION, THE VEHICLE SUDDENLY SHUT OFF. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO DIAGNOSED THAT THE CRANK SENSOR WAS FAULTY. THE CRANK SENSOR WAS REPLACED, BUT THE FAILURES CONTINUED. THE LOCAL DEALER (WHITE ALLEN VOLKSWAGEN, 648 SPRINGBORO PIKE, DAYTON, OH) AND THE MANUFACTURER WERE NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURES. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 65,000. THE VIN WAS INVALID.

PASSENGER AIRBAG IS OFF EVEN WHEN SOMEONE IS SITTING IN THE SEAT. IF SOMEONE DOES NOT HAVE THE SEATBELT FASTENED IN THE PASSENGER SEAT THE BELL AND LIGHT WILL NOT COME ON.

MY HORN AND FRONT RIGHT PARKING LIGHT BOTH STOPPED WORKING AT THE SAME TIME. I NOTICED THERE IS A RECALL FOR THE SAME MAKE/MODEL/YEAR AS MY CAR, BUT MY VIN IS NOT INCLUDED. I WILL NEED TO HAVE THIS REPAIRED AND PAY FOR IT, HOWEVER, I DO HOPE VW AND NHTSA SEES THIS IS A PROBLEM AND EXPAND THE RECALL TO INCLUDE MORE MODELS.

BESIDES THE PROBLEM I HAVE REPORTED ABOUT THE CAR SPUTTERING LOOSING POWER AND EVEN STALLING ONCE ITS ON 1/4 TANK. NOW I AM HAVING PROBLEMS WITH THE ALTERNATOR CHARGING THE BATTERY. I REPLACE THE MUTLI FUSE, AND THE ALTERNATOR. ITS STILL NOT CHARGING. I HAD THE OLD ALTERNATOR TESTED AND IT WORKS. AFTER DOING SOME RESEARCH TRYING TO FIGURE OUT WHAT ELSE IT COULD BE, MANY OTHER PEOPLE ARE EXPERIENCING THE SAME ISSUES. ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS ARE VERY DANGEROUS AND WOULD LIKE TO GET THIS RESOLVED.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 VOLKSWAGEN JETTA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE IGNITION CYLINDER SEIZED AND THE VEHICLE WAS UNABLE TO START. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO BE DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED.

HORN DOESN'T WORK AND THERE IS NO WARNING LIGHT. A VEHICLE DECIDED TO DO A U-TURN IN FRONT OF ME WITH NO WARNING. HIT THE HORN TO FIND IT NOT FUNCTIONING. THERE IS NO WARNING LIGHT TO INDICATE THERE IS AN ISSUE. THE PART THAT FAILED IS ALSO TIED TO THE AIRBAG SYSTEM. THE PART THAT FAILED IS THE CLOCK SPRING - J527 MODULE AS NOTED IN THE VW DEALER INDICATING THE HORN FUNCTIONS BUT THE MODULE NEEDS TO BE REPLACED.

WHEN SHIFTING GEARS FROM PARK TO ANY OTHER GEAR AFTER TURNING THE CAR ON,, THE LIGHTS PROJECTING WHICH GEAR THE CAR IS CURRENTLY IN DO NOT LIGHT UP, AND A WRENCH APPEARS ON THE DASHBOARD, BUT THE INDICATOR ON THE DASHBOARD IS ALSO GONE

MULTIPLE LIGHTS NOT WORKING, INCLUDING TURN SIGNAL AND BRAKE, WHILE DRIVING ON A CITY STREET. DETERMINED THAT 30 AMP FUSE #F16 HAD FAILED AND THERE APPEARED TO BE HEAT DAMAGE TO THE FUSE BOX AT THE LOCATION OF THIS FUSE.

KEY GETS STUCK IN IGNITION AND I CANNOT TURN OFF THE ENGINE.
