ENGINE
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

STEERING
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.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
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.

ENGINE
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!

POWER TRAIN
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.

POWER TRAIN
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.

AIR BAGS
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.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM, VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
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.
