2010 VOLKSWAGEN JETTA Complaints

THE KEY IS STUCK IN THE ON POSITION WITH ENGINE RUNNING. HAD TO PULL RELAY TO STOP ENGINE. UNABLE TO REMOVE KEY FROM THE IGNITION SWITCH. DEALER CHARGES $600-$800 TO REPAIR.

2.5 L APPROX. 108,000 MILES. THE VEHICLE DOES A HARD SHIFT FROM 2 TO 3RD GEAR THEN FROM 3RD TO 4TH. ALMOST LIKE A HARD RESISTANCE THEN BUCKS. HAPPENS WHEN DRIVING AT A LOW RATE OF SPEED OR ON THE HIGHWAY.

SUDDENLY ONE DAY I SAW ABS BRAKE LIGHT IS ON , I TOOK THE CAR TO AUTHORIZED VOLKSWAGEN DEALER , AND THEY TOLD THAT ABS NEEDS TO BE REPLACED AND THE COST IS AROUND $3000. I SEARCHED IN INTERNET AND SAW VW IS REPLACING SOME DEFECTIVE ABS MODULE , I CONTACTED TO VW, USA AND THEY REFUSED TO DO SO AS MY VIN IS NOT THE CANDIDATE FOR RECALL BUT I SEE IN INTERNET MY MODEL AND MAKE AND YEAR IS THE CANDIDATE FOR RECALL . MY CASE NUMBER WITH VW IS 180087368

SECOND FAILURE OF INTAKE MANIFOLD. VW HAS ADMITTED TO A MANUFACTURING DEFECT BUT ONLY EXTENDED WARRANTY. HAD THE MANIFOLD REPLACED AT 50,000 MILES ROUGHLY. UNIT FAILED AGAIN AT 150,000 MILES. I DONT BELIEVE THEY ORIGINALLY FIXED THE PROBLEM. VW IS PLACING HIGH COST ON OWNERS TO REPLACE AFTER 120,000 MILES. REPAIR RUNS HIGHER THAN $800.00. FAILURE TO REPLACE THIS PART CAN DEEM THE CAR UNSAFE.

THE RADIO STOPPED WORKING COMPLETELY, WHICH SEEMS LIKE A COMMON PROBLEM. BUT IN ADDITION THE LIGHTS WERE MALFUNCTIONING FROM THAT POINT ON. 12 DIFFERENT ERROR WARNINGS APPEARED ON THE READOUT ABOUT DIFFERENT LIGHTS NOT WORKING. I CHECKED THE FUSES AND ALL OF THEM WERE OK, NOT BURNED. SEVERAL YEARS AGO I HAD ONE OF THE HEADLIGHTS INTERMITTENTLY NOT WORK. AT THAT POINT I CHECKED THE FUSES AND THERE WAS ONE FUSE THAT HAD A DEFORMED PLASTIC CAP, BUT THE METAL PART WAS STILL IN ONE PIECE. PART OF THE FUSE BOX IT WAS INSERTED IN WAS MELTED. THIS ALL HAPPENED WHEN I FIRST STARTED THE CAR. OBVIOUSLY I COULD NOT OPERATE THE CAR SINCE THE BRAKE LIGHTS, TURN SIGNALS, AND HEADLIGHTS WERE ALL AFFECTED. THE DIAGNOSTIC DISPLAY IN THE CAR ALSO SHOWED TO CHECK THE AIRBAGS AND STABILITY CONTROL.

THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE VIN WAS INVALID. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 57,000.

I HAVE PROBLEMS WITH THE BLINKERS, EMERGENCY FLASHERS, SUNROOF AND DOOR LOCKS COMING ON, NOT WORKING PROPERLY AND ADJUSTING ALL ON THEIR OWN. NOW MY RADIO IS NOT WORKING AT ALL. THERE ARE NO RECALLS ON ANY OF THIS ONLY WARRANTY EXTENSION IS ON THE SECONDARY AIR SENSOR. MOST HAPPENS VEHICLE IS ON OR OFF. PARKED OR RUNNING.

NOT ABLE TO TURN KEY IN THE IGNITION. SOMETIMES NOT ABLE TO START CAR. SOMETIMES NOT ABLE TO TURN CAR OFF.

ENGINE STALLS OUT AS IF IT IS GETTING NO FUEL. IT HAPPENS WHEN IT IS STATIONARY, IN MOTION AND ON CITY STREETS ON OCCASIONS AND VERY DANGEROUS. SEEMS LIKE SOMETHING WRONG WITH THE FUEL PUMP.
