2013 VOLKSWAGEN PASSAT Complaints

TAKATA RECALL. AN ENTIRE YEAR HAS ALMOST PASSED SINCE BEING NOTIFIED THAT THE DRIVER'S SIDE AIRBAG IN MY VEHICLE IS AFFECTED BY THE TAKATA RECALL, YET I STILL HAVE NOT RECEIVED ANY NOTIFICATION ON THE MANUFACTURER REMEDYING THE SITUATION. ALL THE DEALER HAS TO DO IS REPLACE THE AIRBAG, THAT IS THE REMEDY! WHY AM I WAITING AN ENTIRE YEAR FOR THE DEALER TO REPLACE A DEFECTIVE DRIVER AIRBAG THAT HAS THE POTENTIAL TO KILL ME IF I GET INTO A MINOR ACCIDENT?! THIS IS ABSOLUTELY UNACCEPTABLE AND I DEMAND A REMEDY FREE OF CHARGE SOONEST.

I HAVE HAD ON AND OFF TROUBLE WITH MY LEFT LOW BEAM HEADLIGHT FOR THE LAST YEAR. I LOOKED TO SEE IF MY VEHICLE WAS COVERED UNDER THE RECALL 94G8/7V AND I WAS TOLD IT IS NOT COVERED. I HAD THE BULBS REPLACED AND STILL HAVE THE PROBLEM. THE LOW BEAM CONSISTENTLY GOES ON AND OFF ESPECIALLY IN THE COLDER MONTHS. I TOOK IT TO THE VW PLACE TO HAVE THEM CHECK IT AND THEY TOLD ME I JUST NEED A NEW LIGHT. I HAD JUST HAD THEM BOTH REPLACED SO I DON'T THINK THIS IS THE PROBLEM. I BELIEVE THE RECALL SHOULD BE OPENED UP TO MORE 2013 VEHICLES.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 VOLKSWAGEN PASSAT. THE CONTACT LEASED THE VEHICLE FOR FIVE MONTHS AND LATER PURCHASED IT FROM THE DEALER. THE DEALER ADVISED THE CONTACT THAT THERE WERE NO RECALLS.
