ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING
I PURCHASED MY 2010 JETTA IN MAY OF 2010. LESS THAN ONE YEAR LATER I HAVE EXPERIENCED POWER LOSS ON FOUR SEPARATE OCCASIONS. EACH TIME THIS OCCURRED I WAS COMING TO A STOP AFTER DRIVING BETWEEN 20-30 MILES. IT SHOULD BE NOTED THAT THERE WAS NO "CHECK ENGINE" LIGHT ILLUMINATED. TWO DAYS LATER I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP WHO ATTEMPTED TO DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM WHICH AS I HAD IMAGINED THEY COULD NOT. *TR

SEATS:FRONT ASSEMBLY:HEAD RESTRAINT
2010 VOLKSWAGEN JETTA. CONSUMER STATES THERE IS A DESIGN FLAW WITH THE HEAD RESTRAINT ON THE DRIVER'S OR FRONT PASSENGER SEAT. *TGW THE CONSUMER STATED HIS WIFE'S HEAD WAS IN CONTACT WITH THE HEAD RESTARINT AND WOULD NOT PROVIDED ANY SUPPORT IN THE EVENT OF A CRASH. DUE TO THE SHAPE, SIZE AND POSITION OF THE RESTRAINT, THE CONSUMER BELIEVED THE FORCE OF A REAR-END COLLISION WOULD FORCE HIS WIFE'S HEAD DOWNWARD TO HER CHEST WHILE THE UPPER BONES OF HER CERVICAL VERTEBRAE WOULD BE FORCED REARWARD INTO THE V-SHAPE CAVITY FORMED BY THE HEAD RESTRAINT AND THE SEAT BACK.

VISIBILITY
I HAD DRIVEN THE CAR APPROXIMATELY 30 MILES WHEN, WHILE AT A STOP LIGHT THE SUNROOF EXPLODED OUTWARD. THE PANE REMAINED IN ONE PIECE, BUT WAS SHATTERED AND SMALL SHARDS OF GLASS FELL DOWN ON ME. THE TEMP OUTSIDE WAS 36 DEGREES, NO VEHICLE PASSED BY, THERE WAS NO POINT OF IMPACT, NO SEVERE TEMPERATURE CHANGE, NO CHIP OR CRACK IN THE GLASS PRIOR TO THE INCIDENT. THE VEHICLE IS KEPT IN A GARAGE AND THERE WAS NO PRECIPITATION (SNOW OR RAIN) ON THAT DAY. VW CLAIMS NO FAULT OF THEIRS, BUT ADMITS TO A RECALL ON A TROUGH THAT LEADS FROM THE SUNROOF DOWN THROUGH THE DOORS THAT'S KNOWN TO CLOG WITH DEBRIS. VW WILL NOT REPAIR AT THEIR COST.

UNKNOWN OR OTHER
HELLO, I AM WRITING IN HOPES THAT YOU WILL HELP REGARDING A DEFECT IN THIS 2005/2006 JETTA VW MODEL. I HAVE COMPLETED MUCH MY RESEARCH ON LINE AND IT MADE ME ANXIOUS TO SEE MANY OTHERS HAVE HAD THE SAME SITUATION. I AM ASKING THAT YOU HELP IN THIS MATTER. I THOUGHT IT WOULD BE A GOOD IDEA TO CONTACT YOU FIRST. I HAVE ALREADY LOST $200 IN TOWING COST, WHEN MY CAR ABANDONED ME. BASICALLY, I FOUND THAT I COULD NOT TURN THE KEY TO START THE CAR. THE KEY WOULD NOT GO IN. I TRIED TO MOVE THE STEERING WHEEL AT DIFFERENT INTERVALS , BUT NO LUCK AFTER AN HOUR IN A DARK GARAGE. THE KEY JUST WOULDN'T GO IN. I HAD IT TOWED. I STRUGGLED TO GET THE KEY IN ONCE I WAS HOME AND IN A SAFE PLACE. I MANAGED TO PUSH THE KEY IN AFTER 30 MINUTES. A WEEK HAS GONE BY AND IT HAS HAPPENED AGAIN. THE KEY CAN'T GO IN. I HAD TO ABANDON MY CAR AGAIN. I DON'T HAVE AN EXTENDED WARRANTY BUT THAT IS NOT THE ISSUE, THE WARRANTY WOULD NOT COVER IT FROM Y RESEARCH. I FEEL I AM TRAPPED WITH THIS DEFECT THAT IS A COMMON PROBLEM AMONG OTHERS. WARRANTY OR NO WARRANTY, THIS IS A PROBLEM. SEE : HTTP://WWW.CARS-GUIDE.COM/VOLKSWAGEN-FORUM/STEERING-WHEEL-LOCK-AND-IGNITION-SWITCH-PROBLEM-T4673.HTML. I CALLED VW IN AUBURN AND THEY WANT TO CHARGE CLOSE TO $180 TO LOOK AT IT AND ALMOST $500 TO FIX IT. UNACCEPTABLE. IF THIS WAS ISOLATED HERE AND THERE, THEN O.K. BUT THIS IS RAMPANT. *TR

FUEL SYSTEM, DIESEL
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2009 VOLKSWAGEN JETTA DIESEL. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WITHIN MOMENTS AFTER STARTING THE VEHICLE IT STALLED WITHOUT WARNING. THE CONTACT WAS ABLE TO RESTART THE VEHICLE BUT THE FAILURE RECURRED. AFTER APPLYING A PRE- HEATER TO THE FUEL LINES, THE CONTACT WAS ABLE TO RESTART THE VEHICLE SUCCESSFULLY. THE FAILURE PERSISTED ONLY DURING COLD WEATHER. THE VIN WAS UNAVAILABLE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 25,000 AND THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 29,000.

UPDATED 02/02/11 THE CONSUMER STATED DURING AN UNUSUAL COLD DAY, WHEN HE ATTEMPTED TO START THE VEHICLE, IT IMMEDIATELY DIED. HE STARED IT AGAIN, AND IT RAN FOR A FEW SECONDS, THEN STARTED MISSING SEVERELY AND WOULD DIE AGAIN IF HE HADN'T STAYED ON THE THROTTLE. THE CONSUMER STATED THE HIGH PRESSURE FUEL PUMP DISINTEGRATES, FILLING THE ENTIRE FUEL SYSTEM WITH METAL BITS, AND NECESSITATING VERY EXPENSIVE REPAIRS. UPDATED 09/16/11*JB

FUEL SYSTEM, DIESEL
WHILE DRIVING 2009 JETTA TDI WITH APPROXIMATELY 60K MILES, GLOW PLUG LIGHTS FLASHED AND THEN RESULTED IN ENGINE FAILURE AND ALL POWER LOSS WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 70MPH ON HIGHWAY. VEHICLE WAS THEN TOWED TO LOCAL VW DEALERSHIP. AT FIRST WE WERE TOLD THERE MAY HAVE BEEN CONTAMINATED FUEL THAT CAUSED THIS PROBLEM. ONCE A MECHANIC LOOKED AT IT WE WERE TOLD THERE WERE SHARDS OF METAL THROUGH THE FUEL LINES AND IN THE ENGINE, RESULTING IN REPAIRS UPWARD OF $10,000.00. WE ARE CURRENTLY WAITING TO SEE IF THE EXTENDED WARRANTY WE PURCHASED WITH THE VEHICLE WILL COVER THIS DAMAGE. FURTHERMORE WE OPTIONED A REPRINTED RECEIPT SHOWING DIESEL WAS THE LAST FUEL PUT IN THIS VEHICLE, FROM A REPUTABLE FUEL PROVIDED, WHO IS WILL TO LET THIS FUEL BE TESTED. *TR

POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
MY CAR IS A 2010 VW JETTA TDI WITH DSG TRANSMISSION. I TOOK DELIVERY OF THE CAR IN JANUARY OF 2010. DURING JULY OF LAST YEAR WITH 3000 MILES ON THE CAR, I DROVE THE CAR OUT OF A PARKING LOT ON A 95 F DEGREE AFTERNOON. BY THE TIME I REACHED THE EXIT RAMP THE TRANSMISSION, WHICH WAS IN DRIVE MODE, HAD SHIFTED INTO SECOND GEAR. MY INTENTION WAS TO CROSS OVER THE NEAR LANE OF TRAFFIC INTO THE FAR LANE GOING IN THE OPPOSITE DIRECTION. WHEN A SAFE INTERVAL APPEARED I STEPPED ON THE THROTTLE BUT THE CAR MOVED AHEAD VERY SLOWLY (INTO THE LANE OF FAST MOVING CARS) PRESSING THE THROTTLE FURTHER HAD NO EFFECT. I TOOK MY FOOT OFF THE THROTTLE AND PRESSED DOWN AGAIN AND THE CAR RESPONDED NORMALLY. IT SEEMED AT THE TIME THAT THE TRANSMISSION HAD NOT SHIFTED DOWN INTO FIRST GEAR WHEN I HAD STOPPED AT THE DRIVEWAY EXIT. THE SLOW SPEED LASTED FOR ABOUT TEN SECONDS AND THE ENGINE DID NOT LUG. THE DEALER SAID ALL DSG PROBLEMS HAD BEEN ADDRESSED AND JETTAS IN MY VIN NUMBER SERIES DID NOT REGISTER ANY NEW TRANSMISSION PROBLEMS ON THE VW SERVICE WEB SITE. I AM CONCERNED BECAUSE OF THE POTENTIAL FOR A DISASTROUS ACCIDENT WHEN MY WIFE OR I TRY TO ENTER HIGH SPEED TRAFFIC SHOULD THIS PROBLEM RE-OCCUR. I HAD CALLED YOUR PHONE LINE AFTER THE EVENT AND WAS GIVEN "CALL REFERENCE NUMBER 281881, CONFIRMATION NUMBER 10346067". AND TOLD THAT I WOULD RECEIVE A REPORT FORM BY REGULAR MAIL BUT I NEVER HAVE SO I THOUGHT I SHOULD COMPLETE THE ONLINE FORM.

LATCHES/LOCKS/LINKAGES, STRUCTURE:BODY:TRUNK LID
THE TRUNK OF MY 2006 VOLKSWAGEN JETTA TURBO WILL RANDOMLY OPEN WHILE DRIVING AND/OR PARKED. THIS HAS HAPPENED WHILE I HAVE BEEN DRIVING ON SEVERAL OCCASION BLOCKING THE VISIBILITY FROM MY REAR VIEW MIRROR. THE TRUNK WILL ALSO CLOSE, HOWEVER, THE CAR/DASHBOARD RECOGNIZES THE TRUNK AS BEING OPEN; DISABLING THE ABILITY TO OPENING THE TRUNK WITH THE KEYLESS ENTRY AND WITHIN THE CAR. I NOTICE THIS ISSUE USUALLY OCCURS MORE FREQUENTLY WHEN THE WEATHER IS COLDER. *TR

SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC
PREMATURE REAR BRAKE WEAR AND FAILURE. HEAVY BRAKE DUSTING ON REAR WHEELS SINCE NEW. REAR BRAKES NEED TO BE REPLACED AT 25,000 MILES AND 50% OF THE MILES WERE HIGHWAY MILES. SPONGY BRAKE PETAL AND HEAVY REAR WHEEL BRAKE DUST REPORTED TO DEALER 3 TIMES WHEN NEW AND AT THE NORMAL SERVICE INTERVALS. VW DEALER SERVICE MANAGER SAID ALL 09' JETTA'S REAR BRAKES ARE WEARING OUT BETWEEN 20,000 AND 30,000 MILES. EITHER REAR BRAKE DESIGN OR MATERIALS ARE DEFECTIVE CAUSING PREMATURE WEAR AND FAILURE. *TR

SERVICE BRAKES, ELECTRIC, TRACTION CONTROL SYSTEM
FRONT PASSENGER ABS WIRE CAME OUT OF BRACKET AND RUBBED ON THE AXLE. ABS LIGHT AND TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT CAME ON...ABS IS INOPERABLE. DEALERSHIP SAID IT WAS CAUSED BY SNOW AND ICE. WE LIVE IN ILLINOIS WHERE THERE IS SNOW AND ICE 6 MONTHS OUT OF THE YEAR. WHY IS THIS KIND OF ENGINEERING ALLOWED IN SNOWY CLIMATES IF IT IS UNABLE TO PROBABLY FUNCTION. THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD AS THE BRAKE LINE IS ALSO FASTENED TO THIS BRACKET. WHEN CHECKING ONLINE THIS SEEMS TO BE A VERY RECURRING ISSUE. WE WILL BE NEEDING TO GET THIS FIXED....CAR IS UNDER WARRANTY BUT THEY SAY THIS DOES NOT FALL UNDER THE WARRANTY. THE REPAIR IS $506.00 FOR AN ENTIRE WIRE HARNESS. WE HAVE OWNED AUTOS AND VANS SINCE THE INCEPTION OF ABS. WE HAVE NEVER HAD A VEHICLE THAT HAS HAD THIS PROBLEM. *TR

FUEL SYSTEM, DIESEL
HAD VOLKSWAGEN 2010 JETTA TDI SERVICED AT VOLKSWAGEN DEALER FOR 20,000 MILE SERVICE, WHICH INCLUDES FUEL FILTER REPLACEMENT. 2 DAYS LATER, SMELLED DIESEL FUMES IN GARAGE. OPENED HOOD AND SAW DIESEL FUEL LEAKING FROM FUEL FILTER. (WAS NOT SURE IF IT WAS SPILLED DURING CHANGE BY DEALER) WENT TO INDEPENDENT GARAGE AND WAS TOLD IT IS LEAKING AND NOT TO DRIVE THE CAR: POTENTIAL FIRE HAZARD IF DIESEL GETS ON MANIFOLD. I'VE READ SIMILAR DRIVERS COMPLAINT (S) WHERE 2009 JETTA TDI HAS FUEL PUMP FAILURE POSSIBLY AFTER THIS SERVICE AND THEY ALSO HAD THE DIESEL FUEL LEAKING AFTER 20K SERVICE. MINE IS A 2010 JETTA TDI. I WON'T KNOW IF THIS IS AN ERROR OR OMISSION ON THE PART OF THE DEALER OR IF THE REPAIRS WERE DONE CORRECT AND IT'S A DEFECT WITH THE CAR. REGARDLESS, SOMEONE COULD HAVE SERIOUSLY INJURED, POSSIBLY KILLED AND/OR PROPERTY DAMAGE. *LN

POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION, POWER TRAIN:DRIVELINE
A RATTLING NOISE WAS HEARD FROM THE ENGINE AREA STARTING AT ABOUT 50,000 KM. I THOUGHT AT FIRST IT WAS A LOOSE EXHAUST COMPONENT. THE CAR HAS BEEN MAINTAINED SINCE NEW BY A DEALER HERE IN EASTERN CANADA. MY REQUEST TO CHECK THE NOISE AT EACH DEALER SERVICE DID NOT IDENTIFY THE PROBLEM. I DID NOT PRESS THE ISSUE BECAUSE IT COULD ONLY BE HEARD AT IDLE, OUTSIDE THE CAR. WELL AFTER THE CAR WAS OUT OF WARRANTY, I DISCOVERED THE SOURCE OF THE NOISE TO BE THE DUAL MASS FLYWHEEL. THIS TURNS OUT TO BE A WIDELY KNOWN PROBLEM AND THE DEALER SHOULD HAVE IDENTIFIED IT FOR A WARRANTY REPLACEMENT. I HAVE ORDERED A NEW OEM FLYWHEEL (NOT FROM VW) AND WILL BE REPLACING IT MYSELF, AS I DID WITH THE FAULTY CAMSHAFT LAST YEAR (ALSO A WELL KNOWN DEFICIENCY IN THIS VEHICLE). THIS IS A MANUFACTURING DEFECT THAT COULD RESULT IN SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH AND SHOULD BE THE SUBJECT OF A RECALL. *TR

ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:ENGINE, POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
FIRST ISSUE, THE ENGINE IS BURNING OIL. I'VE NOTICED THAT MY CAR ENGINE STARTED BURNING OIL WHEN IT HAD ABOUT 50,000 MILES ON IT. IT TOOK ME ALMOST TWO YEARS TO PROVE TO THE VW DEALERSHIP MECHANICS THAT THE ENGINE IS BURNING OIL. AT 73,000 MILES THE VW DEALERSHIP MECHANICS REBUILT THE ENGINE. MY OIL CONSUMPTION NORMALIZED. NOW, AT AROUND 115,000 MILES, I'VE NOTICED THAT THE ENGINE STARTED BURNING OIL AGAIN. 1,800 MILES AFTER AN OIL CHANGE, JIFFY LUBE MECHANIC HAD TO ADD 2.5QT OF OIL. SHOULDN'T THE ENGINE LAST AT LEAST 100,000 MILES AFTER REBUILD? IT SEEMS THAT THIS ENGINE ONLY LASTS 45,000 MILES. THIS FEELS LIKE A MAJOR DEFECT AND VW HAS TO RECALL THE ENGINE. SECOND ISSUE, MY CAR IS ONLY 8 YEARS OLD BUT IT'S ON ITS THIRD TRANSMISSION. I HAD TO REPLACE TRANSMISSION AT 32,000 MILES AND AGAIN AT 73,000 MILES. I'M AT 115,000 AND I'M GETTING VERY WORRIED BECAUSE I'M STARTING TO FEEL LITTLE JERKS. THIS LOOKS TO BE A 40,000 MILES TRANSMISSION. HOW CAN VW DO THIS TO CONSUMERS? IT WOULD SEEM REASONABLE TO ME IF THIS TRANSMISSION GETS RECALLED. I'M NOT EVEN MENTIONING MANY OTHER MALFUNCTIONS. ONE OF WHICH INCLUDES GETTING FLOODED DURING RAINY SEASON. I CAN'T BELIEVE MY CAR, 2002 VW JETTA 2.0L GLS WAS ALLOWED TO BE ON THE MARKET. *TR
