2012 VOLKSWAGEN JETTA Complaints

THE KEY IS GETTING STUCK AND CAN NOT BE REMOVED. CAN NOT TURN VEHICLE ON OR OFF BECAUSE THE KEY WILL NOT TURN. THE VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY ON A CITY STREET. THE OTHER PROBLEM IS THAT THE AIRBAG LIGHT IS CONTINUALLY ON.

OXYGEN SENSOR CODE COMES UP, THEN ALL LIGHTS COMING ON, WHEN VEHICLE IS IN MOTION. THIS CAR HAD A CARFAX SHEET STATING NO PROBLEM AND REPAIRS DONE BY MICHEAL AUTOMOTIVE IN FRESNO CA. NO RECALL EVER MENTIONED, NOW A YOUNG MANS FIRST CAR , NOTHING BUT PROBLEMS, ONLY PICKED UP BECAUSE CAR FAX STATED IT HAD NO PROBLEMS, NOW A SAFTY CONCERN.

THE THROW OUT BEARING SUFFERED A CATASTROPHIC FAILURE AS I WAS GOING 80 MPH DOWN THE FREEWAY, TO REPLACE IT I DISCOVERED THAT THE SWAY BARS END LINKS WERE RUSTED SOLID AND THE BRAKES HAVE BEEN DONE 6 TIMES AND BROKEN EVERY TIME BUT THIS LAST TIME WITHIN A MONTH

GAS CAP PROBLEM WARING LIGHT ON DO TO GAS CAP AND GAS LEAKING FEUMS WHEN GAS TANK IS FULL CAN SMELL GAS WHILE DRIVING

TL* THE CONTACT'S SON OWNS A 2012 VOLKSWAGEN JETTA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT AT START-UP THE ABS WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO ANCIRA VOLKSWAGEN IN SAN ANTONIO LOCATED AT 6125 BANDERA RD, SAN ANTONIO, TX 78238, TO BE DIAGNOSED. THE CONTACT'S SON WAS INFORMED THAT THE ABS CONTROL MODULE NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE CONTACT RELATED THE FAILURE TO NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 16V913000 (SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC, ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL) HOWEVER, THE VEHICLE MODEL YEAR WAS NOT INCLUDED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS INFORMED OF THE FAILURE AND A CASE WAS FILED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 150,000.

KEY IGNITION FAILURE. KEY GETS STUCK IN IGNITION WHEN TURNING OFF ENGINE. VEHICLE WONT TURN OFF AND KEY WONT COME OUT OF IGNITION. *TR

THE IGNITION WON'T TURN OFF, CAN'T SHUT IT DOWN. I WAS ABLE TO TURNIT OFF BY APPLYING PRESSURE ON THE KEY AND TAPPING THE END OF THE KEY WITH PLIERS. I FOUND THIS SOLUTION ON THE INTERNET FROM OTHER JETTA OWNERS. VOLKSWAGEN KNOWS ABOUT THIS COMMON ISSUE AND REFUSES TO DO A RECALL ON THE IGNITION SWITCH WHICH COSTS HUNDREDS OF DOLLAR TO OWNERS. *TR

BROKEN LEFT FRONT & LEFT REAR COIL SPRINGS. I DON'T BELIEVE THIS WAS CREATED BY RUNNING OVER ANYTHING. SERVICE ASSOCIATE BLAMED IT ON RUST DUE TO SNOW, ICE, DEBRIS BUILD UP. HARD TO BELIEVE A COIL SPRING WILL RUST THROUGH IN 8YRS. IT APPEARS VW HAS HAD OTHER ISSUES WITH COIL SPRINGS ON VEHICLES. I CHECKED WITH AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC & HE AGREED THEY WERE BROKEN. FRONT WHEELS ARE OUT OF ALIGNMENT & SQUEAL WHEN LIGHTLY PRESSING ON BRAKE. CAR CAN'T BE ALIGNED UNTIL REPAIR IS MADE. *TR

THE MICRO SWITCH HAD BEEN RECALLED DUE TO BEING ABLE TO TAKE THE KEY OUT WITHOUT IT BEING IN PARK. I HAVE TRIED TO MAKE 2 APPOINTMENTS TO GET FIXED AND THE DEALERSHIP KEEPS CANCELING THEM AND MOVING IT FARTHER AND FARTHER BACK. *TR

THE AIRBAG LIGHT WILL COME ON AND OFF INTERMITTENTLY WHILE DRIVING. AIRBAG SENSORS ARE MALFUNCTIONING. *TR
