2010 VOLKSWAGEN JETTA Complaints

RADIO FAILED. ALL POWER AND FUNCTIONALITY TO RADIO LOST. THIS IS A COMMON ISSUE AND I BELIEVE A RECALL SHOULD BE ISSUED. *TR

WHILE DRIVING, MY BLUETOOTH HANDSFREE DEVICE, INCLUDING RADIO POPPED AND WENT DEAD. ADDITIONALLY, I HAVE ALREADY REPLACED THE ENTIRE FUEL SYSTEM, TWO AC COMPRESSORS AND THE THERMOSTAT. MAJOR ISSUES WITH THIS MODEL. *TR

RCD-510 RADIO STOPPED WORKING AND IS CONFIRMED "DEAD" BY THE DEALER. NO WARNING, NO REASON AND NO FIX AVAILABLE. BLUETOOTH NO LONGER WORKS BECAUSE IT USES THE RADIO TO POWER CAR SPEAKERS, SO CANNOT DO "HANDS FREE" COMMUNICATION. *TR

AIRBAG LIGHT IS ILLUMINATED. VW SERVICE DEPARTMENT NOTES THE AIRBAG SPIRAL SPRING NEEDS TO BE REPLACED COSTING ~$600. IT WOULD SEEM TO BE A SAFETY ISSUE AND SHOULD BE REPLACED BY VW. *TR

MIDDLE OF SNOW IN TEXAS (LOTS OF ROAD SALTS), I WAS STOPPING AT A GAS STATION TO REFUEL. AFTER REFUELING, THE RADIO (DELPHI PREMIUM 8) DID NOT TURN ON... TOUCHSCREEN WAS BLANK, NONE OF THE LIGHTS TURNED ON. BLUETOOTH LIGHT AT THE CONTROL BUTTONS ABOVE WORKED AND MY PHONE CONNECTED. HOWEVER, HANDS FREE CALLING IS NON-FUNCTIONAL SINCE THE BLUETOOTH REQUIRES THE RADIO FOR THE MICROPHONE AND SPEAKERS. WHILE I CAN SURVIVE WITHOUT MUSIC, NOT HAVING HANDS FREE IS A HUGE SAFETY ISSUE AS I TAKE SEVERAL PHONE CALLS WHILE DRIVING. NOW THAT I AM IN THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA, HANDS FREE IS A LEGAL REQUIREMENT. I SPENT EXTRA MONEY TO HAVE THE BETTER STEREO SYSTEM WITH INTEGRATED BLUETOOTH AND NOW I AM TOLD I WILL HAVE TO SPEND UPWARDS OF $1000 TO REPLACE WHAT IS OBVIOUSLY A POORLY BUILT SYSTEM WHICH DELPHI AND VW SHOULD RECALL. *TR

POP SOUND, BATTERY IS DEAD, RADIO AND NAVIGATION SYSTEM IS INOPERABLE. THIS ISSUES IS WITH HUNDREDS OF 2010 JETTAS. *TR

RCD-510 RADIO STOPPED WORKING AND IS CONFIRMED "DEAD" BY THE DEALER. NO WARNING, NO REASON AND NO FIX AVAILABLE. BLUETOOTH NO LONGER WORKS BECAUSE IT USES THE RADIO TO POWER CAR SPEAKERS, SO CANNOT DO "HANDS FREE" COMMUNICATION. VW SAYS IT IS NOT RESPONSIBLE BECAUSE THE CAR IS OUT OF WARRANTY. I HAVE NEVER HAD A RADIO FAIL -- I HAVE UNDER 60,000 MILES ON THE CAR! *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 VOLKSWAGEN JETTA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT APPROXIMATELY 35 MPH, THE COIL SPRING DETACHED FROM THE VEHICLE WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 85,000.

I HAVE A 2010 VOLKSWAGEN JETTA SPORTWAGON. I HAVE HAD TO REPLACE BOTH REAR DOOR LOCKS. THE FIRST STOPPED WORKING SHORTLY AFTER THE CAR WAS OFF WARRANTY, BUT I MADE A FUSS AT THE DEALER AND HE REPLACED IT FOR FREE. THE DRIVER SIDE REAR DOOR I JUST HAD TO REPLACE--WHICH I HAD TO PAY $500 TO FIX. THIS IS NOT JUST A SECURITY ISSUE BUT A REAL SAFETY ISSUE AS WELL.--MY BROTHER'S SON IS AUTISTIC, AND HE ABSOLUTELY CAN NOT RIDE IN MY CAR IF THE REAR DOORS CANNOT BE SAFELY LOCKED. THE DEALER WAS NOT FORTHCOMING ABOUT WHETHER DOOR LOCK FAILURE IS A COMMON PROBLEM ON VOLKSWAGENS--AND I HAD TROUBLE SEARCHING COMPLAINTS ON THIS WEBSITE--SO I DON'T KNOW IF THIS IS A MORE WIDESPREAD ISSUE OR NOT. *TR

TRANSMISSION ABRUPTLY SHIFTED TO NEUTRAL. THE SELECTOR LEVER POSITION INDICATOR FLASHED WITHIN THE INSTRUMENT PANEL. THE VEHICLE HAD TO BE TURNED OFF BEFORE IT WOULD SHIFT INTO ANOTHER GEAR AGAIN. *TR
