SERVICE BRAKES
VEHICLE SHUDDERS VIOLENTLY ON STOPPING FROM VARIETY OF SPEEDS. THIS IS FELT IN THE BRAKE PEDDLE, STEERING COLUMN, STEERING WHEEL. VEHICLE SHAKES FRONT TO BACK AND SIDE TO SIDE ON BRAKING. VEHICLE STILL APPEARS TO BRAKE ADEQUATELY, THOUGH SOMETHING IS DEFINITELY WRONG WITH THE BRAKING SYSTEM, DOESN'T SEEM SAFE. VEHICLE IS DRIVEN LIGHTLY IN A VARIETY OF CONDITIONS, CARRYING PASSENGERS (KIDS). WE CURRENTLY HAVE A CASE OPEN WITH VOLKSWAGEN AND THEY AND THE DEALER ARE BOTH SAYING IT IS LIKELY A WEAR ITEM AND NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY; THIS ON A VEHICLE WITH LESS THAN 20K MILES ON IT. ALSO OF NOTE IS THE VAN IS MANUFACTURED BY CHRYSLER AND THEY EXTENDED BRAKE WARRANTY FOR 3/36 DUE TO KNOWN AND LONG STANDING ISSUE WITH BRAKES.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
CAR OCCASIONALLY STALLS BUT COULD BE RESTARTED. THEN SIMPLY WOULD NOT START WITH 'BADKEY' ERROR. AFTER DISCONNECTING/RECONNECTING THE BATTERY, THE CAR STARTED THEN WOULD NOT TURN OFF. YOU CAN TURN THE KEY TO THE OFF POSITION AND REMOVE IT, THE VEHICLE WILL STILL RUN. IT APPEARS TO HAVE ALL OF THE SYMPTOMS OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 15V194000 WHICH RESULTED IN A RECALL HOWEVER VW SAYS THAT MY VIN IS NOT PART OF THE RECALL.

VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
ON 6/21/15, I WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY WITH CRUISE CONTROL SET AT APPROXIMATELY 75MPH. I WAS NOT ACCELERATING, NOR HAD MY FOOT ON THE GAS OR BRAKE PETAL. WITHOUT ANY WARNING, THE GAS PETAL PUSHED TO THE FLOOR AND THE VEHICLE BEGAN ACCELERATING QUICKLY. I IMMEDIATELY TURNED ON MY HAZARDS AND TURNED OFF THE CRUISE, BUT THE VEHICLE CONTINUED TO ACCELERATE IN EXCESS OF 100MPH. I FEARED COLLIDING WITH OTHER DRIVERS ON THE TWO-LANED HIGHWAY, AND BEGAN BRAKING AGAINST THE CAR'S ACCELERATION, WHICH WAS QUITE DIFFICULT. I PUSHED THE BRAKE PETAL DOWN AS HARD AS I COULD, WHICH STOPPED FURTHER ACCELERATION; BUT DID NOT SLOW THE VEHICLE QUICKLY. THE VEHICLE CONTINUED TO REV UP AND TRIED RELENTLESSLY TO ACCELERATE AGAINST MY BEST EFFORTS TO BRAKE. I WAS ABLE TO MOVE THE VEHICLE TO THE GRAVEL SHOULDER. ONCE I WAS ABLE TO SLOW THE VEHICLE TO AROUND 20MPH, I TURNED OFF THE VEHICLE AND COASTED TO A STOP. THERE WAS A STRONG SMELL OF SMOKE FROM THE BRAKES. I BELIEVED THE PROBLEM WAS RELATED TO A CRUISE CONTROL MALFUNCTION OR A RELATED SENSOR. I DISCONTINUED USING THE CRUISE AT ANY TIME. HOWEVER, ON 7/9/15, THE SAME PROBLEM OCCURRED. THIS TIME, THE CRUISE WAS NOT SET, AND THE VEHICLE WAS TRAVELING AT APPROXIMATELY 50MPH IN HEAVY TRAFFIC DURING RUSH HOUR ON A THREE LANE FREEWAY. THE SAME STEPS NOTED ABOVE SLOWED THE VEHICLE AFTER IT BEGAN ACCELERATING OUT OF CONTROL, MAKING IT DIFFICULT TO NAVIGATE THROUGH THE SURROUNDING VEHICLES. THE GAS PETAL WAS AGAIN STUCK TO THE FLOOR AND COULD NOT BE PULLED UP. AFTER THE SECOND OCCURRENCE, THERE IS LIKELY SIGNIFICANT DAMAGE TO THE BRAKES AND/OR ENGINE. I CONTACTED A VOLKSWAGEN DEALERSHIP, THAT PLANS TO DIAGNOSE THE VEHICLE. I AM FEARFUL OF DRIVING THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALERSHIP, BUT WAS INSTRUCTED BY THE VW SALES MANAGER TO BRING THE VEHICLE IN FOR INSPECTION AND BE SURE TO TURN THE KEY TO "OFF" OR "ACCESSORY" SHOULD THE PROBLEM OCCUR AGAIN.

ENGINE
ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS STARTING IN MARCH 2015, MY 2010 VW ROUTAN (MANUFACTURED IN JULY 2010 BY CHRYSLER) SIMPLY SHUTS OFF WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE. WHEN THIS OCCURS, I HAVE NO ENGINE POWER, NO POWER STEERING AND NO POWER BRAKES AND AM CONCERNED ABOUT PERSONAL SAFETY. I BOUGHT THE VAN NEW IN SEPTEMBER 2010 FOR MY WIFE, BUT NO LONGER ALLOW HER TO DRIVE IT AS I AM AFRAID IT WILL SHUT DOWN ON HER (IT REQUIRES A BIT OF ARM STRENGTH TO PULL THE VEHICLE OVER AND HOPEFULLY I AM NOT REAR-ENDED BEFORE BEING ABLE TO DO SO). I UNDERSTAND THERE IS NOW A RECALL ON THE IGNITION FOR 2010 ROUTANS, BUT MY VIN DOES NOT APPEAR TO BE WITHIN THE WINDOW INDICATED FOR THE RECALL EVEN THOUGH THE DATE OF MANUFACTURE IS WITHIN THE WINDOW. I AM NOT SURE IF THE IGNITION SWITCH IS THE CAUSE OF THE PROBLEM, BUT THE SYMPTOMS SOUND SIMILAR. ALSO, THERE ARE TIMES WHEN I TURN THE IGNITION KEY TO START THE MOTOR BUT IT WILL NOT ACTUALLY ENGAGE THE STARTER. THE RADIO WILL COME ON, BUT THERE IS NO IMPACT ON THE STARTER. AFTER SEVERAL ATTEMPTS WHILE SITTING THERE, I CAN GET THE SWITCH TO ACTUALLY WORK. I LOVE THE VAN, BUT HAVE BECOME SCARED OF THESE ISSUES. IF THE VAN EVER SHUTS DOWN WHEN I AM ON THE HIGHWAY, THE SPEEDS WILL BE TREACHEROUS. I HAVE SEARCHED THE INTERNET AND FOUND OTHERS WITH SIMILAR COMPLAINTS. I VERY MUCH SEE THIS AS A SAFETY CONCERN AND WANT YOU TO BE AWARE OF THESE ISSUES. I SINCERELY APPRECIATE ANY ASSISTANCE YOU CAN PROVIDE. *TR

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
THE ELECTRONIC DRIVER SIDE PASSENGER DOOR WILL NOT LATCH OPEN. THE DOOR WILL POWER OPEN THEN SLIDE BACK SHUT HITTING WHOEVER OR WHATEVER IS IN THE WAY. THIS IS AN INTERMITTENT PROBLEM. THE VAN WAS CHECKED BY OUR LOCAL DEALER SEVERAL TIMES OVER SEVERAL YEARS. THIS IS STILL AN ISSUE. THIS HAS LED TO MYSELF AND CHILDREN BEING HIT BY THE DOOR LEAVING BRUISES. IT ALMOST SMASHED MY 2 YEAR OLD DAYCARE CHILD'S LEG IN THE DOOR BUT I INTERVENED STOPPING THE DOOR PRIOR TO IT HITTING HER. I HAVE LOOKED ON THE INTERNET AND FOUND SEVERAL OTHER COMPLAINTS ALSO WITH NO REMEDY FROM VW.

I GUESS OUR LIVES AND THE LIVES OF OUR LOVED ONES DO NOT MATTER IT IS TIME FOR SOMEONE OR THE NHTSA TO IMPOSE SOME SERIOUS PREASURE ON VOLKSWAGON AND DEMAND THAT OUR VEHICLES BE REPAIRED CORRECTLY THEY SHOULD BE BROUGHT UP ON CHARGES FOR DECEIVEING THE PUBLIC.EVEN MY OWN DEALERSHIP HAS NOT BEEN TELLING ME EVERYTHING UNTIL I CORNER THEM OR CATCH THEM OFF GUARD, COME TO FIND OUT AFTER SQUEEZING IT OUT OF MY OWN LOCAL SERVICE MANAGER IS THAT A WINS MODULE HAD ALREADY BEEN REPLACED IN MY ROUTAN FOR THE PRIOR OWNER,PROBABLY TO PASIFY THE CUSTOMER.I AM AT THIS POINT LOOKING AT THE LEGAL GROUNDS WE ALL SHOULD HAVE AGAINST THESE CORPERATIONS LIKE VOLKSWAGON OR EVEN CHRYSLER SINCE THEY PRODUCED ROUTANS FOR VOLKSWAGON. I WOULD HATE TO TRADE THIS VEHICLE IN JUST FOR SOME OTHER SAP TO BE STUCK WITH A LEMON .ITS JUST NOT SAFE OR DEPENDABLE AND WE HAVE A LONG TRIP IN TWO DAYS 50/50 CHANCE WE MAKE IT DOWN AND BACK WITH KNOW PROBLEMS ???

TIRES:VALVE
2009 VOLKSWAGEN ROUTAN. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO REPLACEMENTS OF TIRE VALVE STEMS. *SMD THE CONSUMER STATED WITHIN THE LAST TEN MONTHS, SHE HAD TO REPLACE THE VALVE STEMS AND TIRE SENSORS THREE TIMES DUE TO DISINTEGRATION OF THE VALVE STEMS, TWICE ON THE RIGHT FRONT TIRE. THE FIRST TIME THE INCIDENT HAPPENED, THE LOW TIRE PRESSURE LIGHT ILLUMINATED. THE CONSUMER STOPPED AND CHECKED THE TIRES. THE RIGHT FRONT TIRE APPEARED TO BE LOW. WHEN SHE ATTEMPTED TO ATTACH THE AIR HOSE, THE TIRE IMMEDIATELY WENT FLAT AND THE VALVE STEM SUCKED INTO THE TIRE. THE SECOND TIME, THE LOW TIRE LIGHT ILLUMINATED, SHE STOPPED AND OBSERVED THE RIGHT FRONT TIRE WAS LOW. THE TIRE WAS GOING FLAT, AS SHE APPROACHED THE SERVICE STATION. AAA REMOVED THE CAP TO THE VALVE STEM WHICH DISINTEGRATED IMMEDIATELY. THE SLOW LEAK RESULTED IN THE CONSUMER HAVING TO PURCHASE A NEW TIRE, VALVE AND TIRE SENSOR. THE THIRD TIME, THE TIRE LIGHT ILLUMINATED AGAIN. IT WAS DETERMINED THE VALVE STEM WAS LEAKING . THE CONSUMER WAS INFORMED THE REPLACEMENT OF THE VALVE STEMS WAS A FREQUENT OCCURRENCE, THE METAL VALVE STEMS WERE APPARENTLY INFERIOR TO TRADITIONAL RUBBER STEMS. *JB

ENGINE, POWER TRAIN
THE FIRST INCIDENT WITH A "CLUNKING" NOISE OF THE TRANSMISSION BEGAN ON 7/10/2014 AT 51,496 MILES. WHEN SHIFTING FROM REVERSE TO DRIVE CAR MAKES A "CLUNKING" NOISE AND JERKS THE CAR FORWARD. IT WAS NOTED BY DEALERSHIP AFTER A TEST DRIVE NO FAULTS FOUND. ON 3/19/15 AT 58,611 MILES CAR RETURNED TO DEALERSHIP. SAME CLUNKING AND GRINDING NOISES. FAULTS: P0868, P1790 & P0944. PRESSURE READINGS TO LOW IN TCM CONTROL WIRES. TRANSMISSION TO BE REPLACED PER DEALERSHIP. FINDINGS: UNDER DRIVE CLUTCHES WORN OUT, SUNGEARS AND ASSEMBLY DAMAGED WITH METAL METAL FRAGMENTS. ON 4/30/2015 AND 59,215 MILES, CAR RETURNED TO DEALERSHIP FOR SAME GRINDING AND CLUNKING NOISES. DEALERSHIP PERFORMED ANOTHER "QUICK LEARN TEST." AS OF 5/19/2015 AND 60,001 MILES, TRANSMISSION IS STILL GRINDING AND CLUNKING ON OCCASION DURING ACCELERATION AND/OR TRANSMISSION SHIFT FROM REVERSE TO DRIVE. THE VEHICLE ALSO RANDOMLY "STALLS" WHILE AT STOPLIGHTS/STOP-SIGNS WITH NO NORMAL FREQUENCY. EVEN WITH A NEW TRANSMISSION, SAME ISSUES ARE STILL SURROUNDING THIS CAR. THANKS.

SEVERAL TIMES OVER THE LAST YEAR WHEN I GO TO START MY VAN I TURN THE KEY AND ALL THE LIGHTS COME ON, ON THE DASH YET THE VEHICLE DOES NOT START. THERE IS NO NOISE ASSOCIATED WITH THIS INCIDENT. IT CAN TAKE SEVERAL TRIES TO GET THE VAN TO START. LAST FALL I HAD THE INTEGRATED POWER CONTROL MODULE REPLACED AFTER TOTAL FAILURE. THIS CAUSED THE VAN TO LOOSE ALL POWER. IT WAS A SILVER PAPERWEIGHT. BEFORE THEN AND SINCE THEN, THERE HAVE BEEN INTERMITTENT ELECTRICAL ISSUES MOSTLY CENTERING AROUND THE IGNITION. I HAVE A CONCERN THAT ONE DAY IT WILL NOT START AND I WILL BE STRANDED WITH MY CHILDREN.

I WENT TO PASS A VEHICLE AT 65MPH AND THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL DID NOT RELEASE, THE VAN HIT 80-MPH BEFORE I POPPED IT IN NEUTRAL AND THEN BACK INTO DRIVE TO CORRECT THE ISSUE. HITTING THE BRAKES HAD NO EFFECT ON THE UNINTENDED ACCELERATION. THIS VEHICLE IS MECHANICALLY IDENTICAL TO CHRYSLER TOWN & COUNTRY AND DADGE GRAND CARAVAN, SEE OTHER IDENTICAL COMPLAINTS HERE: HTTP://FORUMS.EDMUNDS.COM/DISCUSSION/14835/DODGE/VOYAGER/DODGE-GRAND-CARAVAN-SUDDEN-ACCELERATION? *TR
