MY CAR HAS BEEN BURNING OIL LIKE CRAZY ONCE IT REACHED 95,000 MILES. I'VE ALWAYS GO MY OIL CHANGED ON TIME PROFESSIONALLY. I HAVE TO KEEP OIL IN MY CAR BECAUSE IT BURNS SO FAST. WHEN I ACCELERATE BLACK SMOKE COMES OUT THE TAILPIPE. I GOT MY OIL CHANGED APRIL 12TH AND BY APRIL 28TH MY ENGINE SHUT OFF LIGHT WAS FLASHING..... CHECKED THE OIL AND THE STICK WAS BONE DRY. *TR

ENGINE, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
THE 2.0T TSI ENGINE WAS MADE WITH A FAULTY TIMING CHAIN TENSIONER WHICH WILL FAIL AND CAUSE THE TIMING CHAIN TO BREAK CAUSING IMMEDIATE CATASTROPHIC ENGINE DAMAGE PUTTING THE DRIVER AND OCCUPANTS IN DANGER BECAUSE OF LOSS OF POWER AND DIFFICULTY STEERING. I AM EXTREMELY BLESSED THAT I NOTICED THE CAR WAS ACTING FUNNY AND EXITED OFF THE HIGHWAY. IT'S RIDICULOUS TO ME HOW THE TIMING CHAIN COULD CAUSE THAT MUCH DAMAGE TO THE ENGINE. THE ENGINE OBVIOUSLY HAS BEEN CREATED WITH A FAULTY DESIGN, SO NOW I'M EXPECTED TO PAY TO REPLACE A FAULTY ENGINE WITH ANOTHER FAULTY ENGINE. IT'S EXTREMELY UPSETTING THAT AFTER I SENT MY VEHICLE IN FOR ISSUES WITH A RECALL, FUEL PUMP, THAT MY VEHICLE WOULD JUST SELF DESTRUCT LIKE THIS

ENGINE
THE DEALERSHIP SAID PCV VALVE WENT OUT AND CAUSED REAR MAIN SEAL TO BREAK, WHICH IS THE REASON MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. THE CAR IS NOW LEAKING OIL. THE PCV VALVE APPEARS TO BE FINE, NOTHING IS STUCK, NOTHING CRACKED, THE GASKET IS NOT DAMAGED EITHER. THE CAR NOW HAS 80K MILES ON IT AND IM STUCK WITH $1800 REPAIR BILL FOR THE REAR MAIN SEAL.

ENGINE, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
I WAS LEAVING THE STORE WHEN I NOTICED MY VEHICULAR WOULDN'T GO OVER 30 MPH. I PULLED INTO ANOTHER STORE TO ASSESS THE SITUATION. WHEN I TURNED MY CAR BACK ON AND WAS ATTEMPTING TO LEAVE MY CAR STOPPED WORKING. I HAD IT TOWED TO THE SHOP AND THEY ADVISED ME TO CALL VOLKSWAGEN BECAUSE THIS ISSUES WAS LIKELY COVERED UNDER A WARRANTY. I CALLED VOLKESWAGEN AND THEY SAID MY WARRANTY WOULD COVER IT UP TO 120K MILES AND TO TAKE IT TO THE LOCAL DEALERSHIP. I HAD THE CAR TOWED AGAIN TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY INFORMED ME THAT THE TIMING CHAIN WAS BROKEN AND THEY SAID MY WARRANTY JUST EXPIRED AT 100K MILES. MY CAR HAS 108K MILES. AFTER DOING A LOT OF RESEARCH I FOUND THIS TO BE A FREQUENT PROBLEM WITH THIS MANUFACTURE. I ALSO FOUND THAT THERE WAS ALREADY A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT BUT MY VEHICLE WASN'T IN THE PERAMITERS BECAUSE OF THE MILEAGE (ENDS AT 100K). I NEVER RECEIVED NOTICE OF THE RECALL OR I WOULD HAVE TAKEN IT IN TO GET LOOKED AT BEFORE THE 100K MIKE CUTOFF. BECAUSE THEY SAID THIS WASN'T COVERED IN THE WARRANTY, I LOOKED INTO BUYING ANOTHER CAR FROM THEM. THEY INFORMED ME THAT THEY COULD GIVE ME $250 FOR MY VEHICLE. NOW I KNOW VOLKSWAGEN IS TRYING TO AVOID PAYING FOR THIS BECAUSE THEY KNOW THEY CAN MAKE MONEY.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, ENGINE, FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
VEHICLE KEEPS MISFIRING. CHECK ENGINE LIGHT REMAINS ON. EPC LIGHT COMES ON PERIODICALLY AFTER FUEL PUMP WAS REPLACED. WHILE DRIVING CAR JERKS AND CHECK ENGINE LIGHT BEGINS TO FLASH. LOTS OF WEAR TO TIRES WITHIN A FEW THOUSAND MILES. BREAKS MUST BE PUSH ON HARD TO STOP. THE DEALERSHIP SAID THE ONLY THING THAT WAS WRONG WAS A CODE FOR CARBON BUILDUP. DEALERSHIP WOULD NOT PROVIDE CODE JUST A PRICE OF $1000. SPARK PLUGS AND COILS WERE CHANGED BEFORE PURCHASING VEHICLE. I'M CERTAIN THE FUEL PUMP WAS NOT CHANGED. THE VEHICLE USES 1/8 OF A TANK TO WARM UP.

STRUCTURE:BODY
INTERIOR HEAD LINER CLOTH HAS COME COMPLETELY LOOSE AND OBSCURING LINE OF SIGHT THRU REAR WINDOW. THE CAR IS GARAGE KEPT IT IS 10 YEARS OLD WITH LESS THAN 73K MILES ORIGINAL PURCHASER OWNER. WIFE PULLED IT FROM GARAGE AND AS SHE WAS BACKING THE HEADLINER CLOTH LET GO FROM ROOF MOLDING. I BELIEVE WE ARE NOT THE ONLY ONES EXPERIENCING THIS THE DEALERSHIP SAID THE PARTS HAVE TO BE BACKORDERED DUE TO DEMAND AND HAD STATED THERE WAS ANOTHER CUSTOMER BESIDE OURSELVES WITH THE SAME ISSUE. THIS IS VERY EXPENSIVE TO REPLACE TOTAL COST IS LOOKING TO BE 2K. THE ENTIRE ASSEMBLY IS SO LARGE THAT THE REAR WINDOW HAS TO BE REMOVED TO INSTALL. I BELIEVE SUBSTANDARD ADHESIVES AND OTHER MATERIALS WERE USED IN THE MANUFACTURER OF THIS ITEMS.

ENGINE, FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM, POWER TRAIN
THE VEHICLE IN QUESTION HAS HAD OVER TWO YEARS OF UNRESOLVED ENGINE AND TRANSMISSION PROBLEMS. THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN REPEATEDLY RETURN TO THE DEALERSHIP ONLY TO BE TOLD THAT WHAT IT WAS THERE FOR NOT TO BE THE PROBLEM BUT OTHER THINGS HAVE BEEN FOUND AND THATS THE PROBLEM. AFTER PAYING FOR THAT REPAIR ONLY TO BRING IT BACK FOR THE ORIGINAL COMPLAINT. THIS IS THE PATTERN WITH THE ENGINE LEAKING OIL AND THE LEAK NEVER FOUND TO THE CAR NOT GOING ABOVE 10 MPH. WTHIN THE LAST 5 MONTHS THE CAR HAS BEEN IN THE SHOP FOR THE SAME ISSUE OF NO POWER AND RATTLING SHAKING TRANSMISSION. THREE TO FOUR WEEKS AT A TIME. IN THE PAST THE CAR HAS BEEN RETURNED TO THE DEALERSHIP ONCE A WEEK FOR THE OIL TO BE CHECK AND FILLED TO SPECS . ALSO WITHIN THE PAST TWO YEARS THE ENTIRE ENGINE HAS BEEN WORKED ON BY THE DEALERSHIP AND THE TRANSMISSION WAS BLOWN UP BY A TECHNICIAN BEING CARELESS IN MAKING A REPAIR. IN REPAIR ORDERS I HAVE THE MAJOR WORK THAT HAS BEEN DONE ON THIS VEHICLE.IN TALKING TO THE DEALERSHIP AND VOLKSWAGEN THE ONLY THING THATS BEING SAID THAT THE CAR IS TOO FAR OUT OF WARRANTY. THE ISSUE THAT GENERATES THIS COMPLAINT IS THAT NOW VOLKSWAGEN DEALERSHIP HAS THE CAR AND IT NEEDS A ENGINE AND TRANSMISSION AND WANTS BETWEEN $8,000-$11,000. THIS IS A MAJOR PROBLEM BECAUSE OF THE ISSUE THAT HAVE BEEN HAVING OVER THE PERIOD OF TIME. THE CONSUMER SHOULD NOT BE CARRYING THE BURDEN OF THIS TYPE OF REPAIR BECAUSE OF THE HISTORY OF THE CARS IN QUESTION (WHICH IS THE VOLKSWAGEN 2012 CC). ALL OF THE PROBLEMS HAVE OCCURRED WHILE THE CAR WAS IN MOTION. THE EVENTS WITH THIS CAR STARTED IN THE YEAR 2016 AND THE PROBLEMS HAVE BEEN CONSTANT EVRY SINCE UP UNTIL THIS CURRENT DATE.
