2011 VOLKSWAGEN JETTA Complaints

WINDSHIELD WIPERS NOT FUNCTIONING WHEN VEHICLE IS IN 18 DEGREE AND BELOW TEMPERATURES FOR A FEW HOURS. WIPERS WORK FINE ONCE VEHICLE IS HEATED UP IN GARAGE OR OUTSIDE TEMPERATURES RISE ABOVE 18 DEGREES. REPLACEMENT WIPER MOTOR ASSEMBLY WAS DIAGNOSED AND REQUIRED TO CORRECT MALFUNCTION. WOULD LIKE VW TO REIMBURSE THE $537.03 OUT OF POCKET COSTS TO REPLACE THE DEFECTIVE/FAULTY PART. HAVE SEEN NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS FOR SAME ISSUE ONLINE. THANKS AND HOPE VW IS LISTENING!

IF THE OUTSIDE TEMPERATURE GOES BELOW APPROXIMATELY 15 DEGREES FAHRENHEIT, THE WIPERS FAIL TO OPERATE. THIS CAN HAPPEN WHEN THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN PARKED, OR DURING OPERATION. THIS HAS HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES AND FROM INDICATIONS ON THE INTERNET, IS A KNOWN SAFETY PROBLEM.

TURNED ON VEHICLE, WENT TO TURN ON THE STEREO, AND ONCE I HIT THE 'POWER' BUTTON, IT TURNED ON AND THEN THE SCREEN WENT BLACK, RESULTING IN THE COMPLETE LOSS OF THE HEAD UNIT, RADIO, BLUE TOOTH, AND CLOCK. FUSES WERE CHECKED IN BOTH THE FUSE BOX AND THE STEREO ITSELF, AND NO FUSES WERE BLOWN.

CRANK CASE IS NOT ON RECALL SO IT'S NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY. THE COST IS 4200.00. AT WHAT POINT WILL IT GO ON RECALL. WITHOUT THE REPAIR THE CAR IS DEAD IN THE WATER. WARRANTY COMPANY WILL NOT PAY FOR ANYTHING THAT'S ON A TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN. ALSO CALLED VW VERIFIED IS ON THE TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN. IT'S VERY DANGEROUS AS THE CAR OIL LIGHT COMES ON AND RUNS ROUGH AND JUST STOPS. JULY 7 2017 BULLETIN 15-16-02 (V151602)

THE CAR RANDOMLY STALLS AND HAS BEING DOING SO FOR OVER A YEAR HAS BEEN TO SEVERAL MECHANICS AND THEY CANNOT FIX THE PROBLEM THE DEALERSHIP HAS BEEN ATTEMPTING TO FIX THE PROBLEM SINCE 08/30/2017 AND CURRENTLY HAS THE CAR WHILE I AM CARLESS. I HAVE REACHED OUT TO CORPORATE AND THE MANUFACTURE AND THEY JUST REPLY WITH EMAILS STATING THEY WILL GET BACK TO ME

AIRBAG LIGHT ON, VW MECHANIC DIAGNOSED STEERING WHEEL CLOCK SPRING FAILURE, AND INDICATED THE AIRBAGS MAY FAIL TO DEPLOY. THIS VEHICLE WAS NOT INCLUDED IN A PREVIOUS RECALL FOR THE SAME ISSUE ON THE SAME MAKE AND MODEL. THE VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY WHEN THE LIGHT APPEARED AND THE PROBLEM PERSIST, VW DEALERS ACKNOWLEDGE ISSUE BUT WONT FIX AS THIS VIN'S PARTS WEREN'T COVERED BY THE SAME MAKE AND MODEL RECALL.

VEHICLE STALLS INTERMITTENTLY SINCE PURCHASE, COMMONLY WHEN EXITING A FREEWAY TO A STOP OR DURING RUSH HOUR(STOP/GO)TRAFFIC. BEFORE STALLING, VEHICLE WILL JERK, ROUGH IDLE, AND DELAY ACCELERATION. STALLING MAY OCCUR AT A STOP AFTER HIGH SPEED, HOWEVER STALLING HAS ALSO OCCURRED DURING DRIVING AFTER A HIGH SPEED TO LOW SPEED DEPARTURE. WHEN VEHICLE STALLS DURING DRIVING, BOTH THE WHEEL AND BRAKES LOCK UP COMMONLY. IT TAKES PUTTING IT IN NEUTRAL WHILE ROLLING AND ATTEMPTING TO START SEVERAL TIMES BEFORE IGNITION KICKS IN. THIS HAS BEEN DANGEROUS AS THE ONLY BRAKING WOULD BE A GRADUAL EMERGENCY BRAKE PULL AND THERE IS NO ADDITIONAL STEERING, THANKFULLY I HAVE HAD STRAIGHTAWAYS THE TIMES IT HAS HAPPENED, HOWEVER I HAVE BEEN FORCED TO GO THROUGH RED LIGHTS WITH MY HAZARDS ON, LAYING ON THE HORN. VW HAS ATTEMPTED REPAIR 5 TIMES FOR SAME ISSUE WITH NO RESOLVE. LIGHTS AND CODES COME AND GO INTERMITTENTLY AFTER STALLING. ONE OR BOTH OF THE PREVIOUS ISSUES MENTIONED OCCURS ON A DAILY BASIS AS OF THE MOMENT. THE FTC, BBB, AND ATTORNEY GENERAL FOR THE STATE OF MICHIGAN HAVE ALL BEEN MADE AWARE OF THE SITUATION AND THE ATTORNEY GENERAL'S OFFICE RECOMMENDED I REPORT IT TO YOU.

HORN NOT WORKING CAN NOT FIND FUSE DIAGRAM ANYWHERE TO FIX.I DO BELIVE THAT THIS IS A SAFTEY MATTER.DON'T HAVE THE MONEY TO TAKE TO VW DEALER.I'AM FAMILIAR IN CHANGING FUSES AND MECHANICHLY INCLINED.SO WHY WOULD I NEED TO TAKE IT TO DEALER.I SHOULD BE ABLE RECIEVE A FUSE DIAGRAM FOR MY VEHICICLE ID#

WITHIN THREE TO FOUR DAYS I'VE HAD TWO DOOR WINDOWS BLOW OUT WHILE DRIVING. NOTHING HIT THE WINDOWS. ONE DAY I WAS DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE AND THE OTHER TIME I WAS DRIVING ONTO THE INTERSTATE RAMP GOING APPROXIMATELY 40 MILES/HOUR. THIS IS BAFFLING!

TWO EXISTING RECALLS ON MY VEHICLE HAVE BEEN COMPLETED AND I WOULD LIKE TO HAVE THEM UPDATED AS COMPLETE IN THE SYSTEM. THEY ARE: NHTSA RECALL NUMBER: OPENS NEW WINDOW TAKES AWAY FROM VIN LOOKUP SECTION> 11E036 RECALL DATE: SEPTEMBER 7, 2011 MANUFACTURER RECALL NUMBER: 26G9 AND NHTSA RECALL NUMBER: OPENS NEW WINDOW TAKES AWAY FROM VIN LOOKUP SECTION> 14V656 RECALL DATE: APRIL 7, 2015 MANUFACTURER RECALL NUMBER: 42G8 I HAVE ATTACHED A PRINTOUT FROM THE VOLKSWAGEN DEALERSHIP THAT SHOWS THE INSPECTIONS AND IF NECESSARY CORRECTIVE ACTIONS WERE TAKEN TO ADDRESS BOTH.
