ENGINE
AFTER 87K MY 2011 VW CC HAS AN ISSUE WITH THE TIMING CHAIN TENSION AND HAS RUINED MY ENGINE IN LESS THAN 72 HOURS. I RECEIVED A CHECK ENGINE LIGHT NOTIFICATION AND IMMEDIATELY SCHEDULED A SERVICE APPOINTMENT, BUT BY THE TIME I GOT IT INTO THE SHOP, MY ENGINE WAS DESTROYED. EVEN THOUGH I NEVER RECEIVED A LOW OIL NOTIFICATION, I NOTICED THE OIL WAS LOW BY THE DIP STICK AND THEREFORE ADDED A FEW QUARTS OF OIL. WHEN I GOT TO THE DEALERSHIP FOR SERVICE THE ENGINE WAS ALMOST COMPLETELY OUT OF OIL AND MY ENGINE WAS DAMAGED. THE TOTAL ESTIMATE FOR REPAIRS IS OVER $10,000 AND THEREFORE EXCEEDS THE VALUE OF THE VEHICLE($5K).

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, EXTERIOR LIGHTING
WIRING HARNESS RUNNING THROUGH THE TRUNK AREA OF THE VEHICLE IS ROUTED IN SUCH A MANNER THAT OPENING AND CLOSING THE TRUNK CAUSES THE INSULATION TO CHAFE, RESULTING IN A SHORT CIRCUIT WHICH CAUSES THE TRUNK TO OPEN WITHOUT WARNING WHILE THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION AND THE TAIL/BRAKE LIGHTS TO CEASE FUNCTIONING PROPERLY.

AIR BAGS
WE HAD THE PASSENGER AIR BAG REPLACED DUE TO A RECALL, EVER SINCE THE DASH LIGHTS, AIR BAG AND OTHERS HAVE BEEN COMING ON, NOW THEY STAY ON ALL THE TIME. THE VW GARAGE SAID IT WAS THE PASSENGER OCCUPANT DETECTION MODULE. THIS DID NOT HAPPEN UNTIL AFTER WE HAD THE PASSENGER AIR BAG REPLACED.

ENGINE
AFTER BEING PARKED IN THE DRIVEWAY OVERNIGHT THE CAR WOULD NOT START. IT WAS TOWED TO THE DEALER WHO DIAGNOSED A SLIPPED TIMING CHAIN. AN INTERNET SEARCH REVEALED THIS TO BE A COMMON FAILURE WITH THIS ENGINE DUE TO A FAULTY DESIGN OF THE BELT TENSIONER.

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
(1) FIRST OF ALL, I APOLOGIZE IF I DON'T DESCRIBE CLEARLY BECAUSE ENGLISH IS MY SECOND LANGUAGE. I WILL DO MY BEST. MY CAR IS 2012 VW CC. (2) RECEIVED AN IMPORTANT SAFETY RECALL IN JUNE 2018 AND TRIED TO SET UP AN APPOINTMENT, BUT STAFF AT VW AT AUTO PARK, CARY, NC RESPONDED THAT THEY DON'T HAVE THE PARTS AND NO ONE IN THEIR COMPANY KNOWS WHEN THEY WILL HAVE THE PARTS. SHE ASKED US TO CALL BACK IN A WEEK. SO WHY DID THEY SEND ME A LETTER TO INCREASE MY ANXIETY FOR THE FUTURE DRIVING? THANKS TO NHTSA, I FOUND OUT THIS IS A RECALL ISSUED ON AUGUST 2017, BUT I RECEIVED THIS LETTER ALMOST A YEAR LATER. THIS IS RIDICULOUS THAT VW COMPANY DOESN'T TAKE RECALLS SERIOUSLY AND ENDANGERS CUSTOMERS' LIVES. (3) I ALSO HAVE A RECALL FOR AIRBAG SHOWN ON THIS NHTSA. IN APRIL OF 2016, THEY SENT ME A RECALL LETTER. WHEN I CALLED THEY SAID THAT IT WAS NOT AVAILABLE, JUST FOUND OUT THEY HAVE THE PARTS, BUT NEVER TRIED TO INFORM ME. NO FOLLOW UP SERVICE. (4) ONE INCIDENT THAT OCCURED TO ME IN MAY 2017, THE COMPUTER OF THE CAR WENT DEAD WHILE I WAS IN A PARK LOT. FORTUNATELY, IT DID NOT GO OUT WHILE I WAS DRIVING. ACCORDING TO THEM, THE COMPUTER NEEDED TO BE UPGRADED FOR A MALFUNCTION AND WE HAD TO PAY FOR IT. MY HUSBAND AND I WOULD LIKE TO TALK TO THE MANAGEMENT TO GET A DIRECT ANSWER OF THE DETAILS, BUT THEY REFUSED TO GIVE US ANY CONTACT PHONE NUMBER INCLUDING THE HEAD OFFICE OF VW. (5)IN CONCLUSION, I AM VERY DISAPPOINTED WITH VW AT AUTO PARK, CARY, NC. ESPECIALLY THE WAY THAT THE STAFFS REPRESENT THEIR COMPANY. THIS LOCATION'S SERVICE AND CULTURE WERE REALLY BAD FROM THE LAST FEW YEARS I HAD GOTTEN. I CHOSE TO GET SERVICE THERE ONLY BECAUSE IT'S THE CLOSEST VW LOCATION. NO OTHER REASONS. THANK YOU FOR READING MY COMPLAINTS WITH YOUR PATIENT! HAVE A WONDERFUL SUMMER!

AIR BAGS, FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
"TAKATA RECALL" WE CONTACTED OUR LOCAL VOLKSWAGEN DEALER OVER 6 MONTHS AGO TO GET OUR AIRBAG RECALL TAKEN CARE OF. TO DATE, THE PROBLEM HAS NOT BEEN RESOLVED OR EVEN PLACED ON THE SCHEDULE. OUR LOCAL DEALER HAS BLAMED VW CORPORATE THE ENTIRE WAY. WE ARE GOING ON VACATION JULY 14TH-21ST 2018 AND REACHED OUT TO VW CORPORATE FOR HELP IN THE WAY OF A LOANER VEHICLE. AFTER AN HOUR AND A HALF ON HOLD, THEY HAVE NOT COME UP WITH ANY SUITABLE OPTIONS. THEY ARE REFUSING A RENTAL CAR AND CAN NOT GUARANTEE THAT OUR CAR WILL BE FIXED BEFORE WE LEAVE. WE DO NOT FEEL SAFE IN THIS CAR AND WE'VE BEEN DRIVING IT DAILY BECAUSE WE HAVE NO OTHER CHOICE. OUR CHILDREN WILL BE IN THIS CARD DURING VACATION AND VW DOESN'T SEEM TO CARE.

ENGINE
THE TIMING BELT TENSIONER FAILED WHILE DRIVING. LOST POWER AND REQUIRED A TOW. DAMAGED VALVES, WARPED HEAD AND PISTONS WAS AN EXPENSIVE REPAIR. THIS APPEARS TO BE PROBLEM FOR THE 2.0 ENGINE AS I'VE READ THAT HAS OCCURRED WITH MANY OTHER OWNER'S. VOLKSWAGEN SHOULD TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR THESE REPAIRS.

ENGINE
VW & AUDI TIMING CHAIN TENSIONER DEFECT ' CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT. ENGINE FAILED DUE TO TIMING CHAIN TENSIONER DEFECT. THE VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY. WENT TO START VW CC AND IT HAD A DELAYED OR SLOW CRANK. WHEN THE ENGINE STARTED IT WAS VIBRATING LIKE CRAZY. HAD THE CAR TOWED TO THE DEALER AND A FEW DAYS LATER WAS TOLD THAT IT WAS THE TIMING HAD SLIPPED DUE TO THE TENSIONER. I DID SOME RESEARCH AND FOUND OUT ABOUT THE CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT. ACCORDING TO THE INFORMATION PRESENTED ON CARCOMPLAINTS.COM SEVERAL BULLETINS IN REGARDS TO THIS ISSUE WHERE SENT TO THE DEALERS SERVICE DEPARTMENTS AND OF COURSE THE SERVICE MANAGER THAT I AM DEALING WITH HAS NO KNOWLEDGE OF SUCH AN ISSUE AND HAS WORKED AT THE DEALERSHIP FOR MANY YEARS AND IT WOULD COST $3000 - $9000 DEPENDING ON ENGINE DAMAGE BUT MOST LIKELY NEED A NEW ENGINE. THE INFORMATION ALSO STATES THAT THIS COULD AND DOES HAPPEN WHEN THE VEHICLE IS MOVING WHICH COULD PROVE TO BE VERY DANGEROUS. THIS NEEDS BE INVESTIGATED AND THE SIMPLE FACT THAT DEALERS, SERVICE DEPARTMENTS AND VW CALL CENTER PERSONNEL ARE NOT AWARE OF THIS ISSUE AND BASICALLY DENY ANY KIND OF LIABILITY IS EXTREMELY UNJUST.
