2019 VOLKSWAGEN JETTA Complaints

ENGINE STALLS IN NEUTRAL OR WITH THE CLUTCH IN WHEN COMING TO A STOP OR SLOWING DOWN TO TURN. *TR

WHENEVER I ACCELERATE, ESPECIALLY AT A NORMAL OR LIGHT RATE, I HEAR A GRINDING NOISE. IT USUALLY HAPPENS ANYWHERE FROM 25-40 MPH AND DOESN'T MATTER IF THE ENGINE IS COLD OR WARM. IT HAS HAPPENED EVER SINCE I GOT THE CAR AND I HAVE TAKEN IT TO THE DEALERSHIP TWICE TO GET IT CHECKED OUT. WHEN I TOOK IT THERE I WAS TOLD THAT IT WAS THE ABS SYSTEM KICKING IN. THE SECOND TIME I TOOK IT THERE I WAS TOLD THAT IT IS A 'NORMAL SOUND THAT ALL JETTA'S MAKE'. I DON'T THINK A NEW VEHICLE SHOULD BE MAKING ANY SORT OF GRINDING NOISE. IT SOUNDS LIKE IT IS COMING FROM THE TRANSMISSION OR DRIVETRAIN AND THAT'S WHAT CONCERNS ME. *TR

INTERIOR TRIM PIECE BELOW THE INFOTAINMENT CENTER IS DEFECTIVE. IT BEND OUTWARD LEAVING A 1 INCH GAP BETWEEN TRIM PIECE AND THE DASH. TAKEN TO VW DEALER AND IT IS COVERED UNDER WARRANTY FOR DEFECTIVE PIECE.

I HAVE A 2019 VOLKSWAGEN JETTA GLI 35TH ANNIVERSARY EDITION 2.0T TSI W/ 6 SPEED MANUAL TRANSMISSION. (ONLY 3500 MANUFACTURED IN THE WORLD) 1. I HAVE A VERY LOUD CLICKING/TAPPING NOISE WHEN AT IDLE AND LOWER RPMS. VEHICLE HAD ABOUT 9,000 MILES ON THE ODOMETER WHEN NOISE STARTED. I HAVE MULTIPLE VIDEOS AND SOUNDS RECORDINGS OF THE VEHICLE HAVING THIS NOISE. I TOOK THE VEHICLE IN FOR DIAGNOSIS. I SHOWED THE SERVICE ADVISOR THE VIDEOS AND HE SAID "IT DOES NOT SOUND NORMAL AT ALL, IN FACT IT SOUNDS LIKE INTERNAL DAMAGE/DEFECT". THE TECH HAD TAKEN IT INTO THE SHOP AND CAME BACK AND SAID IT SOUNDED 100% NORMAL. I AM NOW AT 12,000 MILES AND DID MY OIL CHANGE AT THE 10,000 MILE MARK. NOISE IS STILL THERE. I AM AFRAID IF THE NOISE KEEPS GOING ON AND IT IS CAUSING INTERNAL DAMAGE MY CAR WILL BE DESTROYED. THE VEHICLE HAS STALLED OUT ON ME 1 TIME AT A TRAFFIC LIGHT SINCE I BOUGHT IT IN DECEMBER OF 2019. (CLUTCH WAS DEPRESSED AND CAR WAS IN NEUTRAL) I AM CURRENTLY GOING BACK TO HAVE THEM LOOK AT IT AND TO GET A TRIM PIECE REPLACED UNDER WARRANTY DUE TO FAULT.

WHEN I'M DRIVING THE CAR WILL JUST STALL OUT OF NOWHERE, THEN AFTER THIS HAPPENS I WOULD START THE VEHICLE BACK UP AND IT WILL CUT OFF

THE TRANSMISSION OR TORQUE CONVERTER IS MAKING A GRINDING NOISES AT 28MPH AND 39MPH. THIS IS A BRAND NEW CAR WITH UNDER 100 MILES ON IT. THERE IS A PENDING CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT ON THIS ISSUE. VW NEEDS TO ADDRESS THIS SERIOUS SAFETY CONCERN.

BOUGHT 2019 JETTA IN SEPT. 2018. JETTA SE, HABANERO ORANGE. CURRENTLY HAS 39,500 MILES ON IT. HAD BEEN COMPLAINING TO THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT EVER SINCE MY FIRST OIL CHANGE (ROUGHLY 5000 MILES). I CHANGE THE OIL EVERY 5000, AND EVERY TIME I ASKED ABOUT IT, THEY REFUSED TO ACKNOWLEDGE THE ISSUE. NO RECALL. HOWEVER, AT 39,000 MILES MY CAR BEGAN "HARD-SHIFTING" AND WOULD GET STUCK/LOCKED IN GEAR AT SLOW TRAFFIC SPEEDS (20-40MPH). IT WOULD THEN SLAM INTO GEAR, AND I WOULD CONTINUE ON MY WAY. TOOK THE CAR INTO VOLKSWAGEN, REQUESTED TO SEE THE FOREMAN TO REPLICATE MY ISSUE. TALKED TO VW CUSTOMER CARE IN ORDER TO OPEN A CASE. REPLICATED THE ISSUE WITH THE FOREMAN, AND THEY TOOK MY CAR FOR INSPECTION AND REPAIR. THEY FOUND AS FOLLOWS: - BURNT TRANSMISSION FLUID - METAL SHAVINGS IN THE TRANSMISSION FLUID - METAL SHAVINGS IN THE OIL - METAL SHAVINGS IN THE OIL COOLER. CAR FELT VERY UNSAFE FOR REGULAR USE. CAR WOULD NOT DRIVE CORRECTLY. BEING STUCK IN GEAR REQUIRES ME TO PULL THE VEHICLE OVER DURING FREEWAY DRIVING. WOULD NOT ALLOW ME TO ACCELERATE CORRECTLY. HAPPENED DURING SLOW SPEEDS, ROUGHLY 25-40MPH, ALSO, WHILE SPEEDING UP TO ROUGHLY 60MPH.

REAR DIRVERSIDE ROTOR SHEERED OFF CAUSING WHEEL TO LOCK-UP AND VEHICLE TO SPIN-OUT RESULTING IN IMPACT WITH CURB

I HAD PARKED MY 2019 JETTA IN MY LOCKED GARAGE LAST NIGHT. WHEN I WENT TO USE THE CAR THIS MORNING, AND BEFORE I GOT INTO THE CAR, I NOTICED THAT THE DRIVER'S SIDE WINDOW WAS SHATTERED. I AM THE ONLY ONE WHO LIVES IN THE HOUSE. THE GARAGE IS ATTACHED TO THE HOUSE, AND THERE AREN'T ANY WINDOWS IN THE GARAGE. THE ONLY WAY INTO THE GARAGE IS THROUGH A DOOR FROM THE KITCHEN OR BY USING THE GARAGE DOOR. THERE IS NO SIGN OF ANY FORCED ENTRY, BUT MY DRIVER'S SIDE WINDOW IS SHATTERED WITH MOST OF THE GLASS ON THE DRIVER'S SEAT, SOME ON THE GARAGE FLOOR (~5%) AND VERY LITTLE (~2%) ON THE ROOF OF THE CAR. IT WOULD APPEAR THAT THE WINDOW WAS NOT ALL THE WAY UP AFTER I PARKED IT IN THE GARAGE, WHICH IS BASED ON THE AMOUNT OF SHATTERED GLASS IN AND AROUND THE CAR. THERE IS NO SIGN OF ANY DAMAGE TO THE WORKINGS OF THE GARAGE DOOR, INCLUDING THE SPRINGS. THERE IS NO SIGN OF ANYTHING HAVING FALLEN ONTO THE CAR, OR FROM INSIDE THE CAR. THERE IS NO SIGN OF ANYTHING HAVING BEEN TAKEN FROM THE CAR. THE CAR WAS STATIONARY AND IT HAD BEEN PARKED IN THE GARAGE FOR AT LEAST 12 HOURS.
