2014 VOLKSWAGEN PASSAT Complaints

TOOK OUR 2014 PASSAT TDI IN FOR A CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ON 7/18/16 AFTER TESTING A FAULT CODE OF P2196 INDICATED AN 02 SENSOR WAS FAULTY. NEGOTIATED TO $300 TO REPAIR/REPLACE UNIT. PICKED UP VEHICLE ON 7/21/16 AFTER REPAIR WAS MADE. ON 8/3/16 CHECK ENGINE LIGHT AGAIN CAME ON. RETURNED TO DEALER AND THEY INDICATE THAT THE ADBLUE HEATER ELEMENT WAS FAULTY. RECOMMEND REPLACING AT A COST OF CLOSE TO $1,000.00. SINCE THIS IS PART OF THE EMISSIONS ISSUE WE FEEL THAT THIS SHOULD BE COVERED UNDER ANY AND ALL WARRANTY. THE VEHICLE HAS 48,875 MILES ON IT AND IS ONLY 2 1/2 YEARS OLD.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 VOLKSWAGEN PASSAT. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE RECALL NOTICE FOR NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 16V078000 (AIR BAGS) WAS RECEIVED IN MARCH OF 2016. AFTER CONTACTING THE DEALER AND THE MANUFACTURER ON MULTIPLE OCCASIONS, THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE PARTS NEEDED TO REPAIR THE VEHICLE WERE STILL NOT AVAILABLE AND NO ESTIMATED TIME FOR RECEIVING THE PARTS COULD BE GIVEN. THE CONTACT HAD NOT EXPERIENCED A FAILURE.

I RECEIVED THE RECALL NOTICE BACK TO FEBRUARY 9, 2016. HOWEVER, REMEDY IS STILL NOT YET AVAILABLE AFTER ALMOST SIX MONTHS. I AM REALLY DISAPPOINTED ABOUT VOLKSWAGEN'S EXECUTION AND FEEL UNSAFE WHEN DRIVING MY CAR.

TAKATA RECALL I RECEIVED NOTICE CONCERNING A RECALL ON THE AIRBAG FOR MY VEHICLE BUT WHEN I CALLED VW SERVICE SEVERAL TIMES, I WAS INFORMED THAT THE REPLACEMENT PART HAS NOT BEEN MADE AVAILABLE. MY CONCERN IS, IF I OR MY DAUGHTER OR HUSBAND WAS TO GET INTO AN ACCIDENT WHILE DRIVING THE CAR AND THE AIRBAG DEPLOYS, SEVERELY INJURING OR KILLING MY FAMILY, INSTEAD OF THE AIRBAG SAVING THEM, I'M GOING TO FILE AGAINST VW. BECAUSE VW DECIDED TO WAIT AND DO THEIR OWN INVESTIGATION. I'M WORRIED AND I WILL BE RETURNING THE CAR IF THIS MATTER IS NOT RESOLVED IMMEDIATELY

TAKATA RECALL ENGINE CODE FOR MALFUNCTIONING ADBLUE HEATER, REQUIRES NEW ADBLUE TANK $1200 NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY. SEARCHING ONLINE, A LOT OF OWNERS HAVING SAME ISSUE. CONSIDERING THEY AREN'T EVEN USING THE SYSTEM, THIS COULD BE THE CAUSE OF PREMATURE FAILURE OF THE DEVICE. I FEEL THIS SHOULD BE REPLACED AS PART OF THE EMISSIONS RECALL.
