2012 Volkswagen Cc Other / unspecified Problems

The tire pressure light continues to alert never going away and tire store says it's a sensor but it's causing my tires to get worn quicker and have had 2 blowouts I have tried to get this resolved and repaired by Volkswagen but the customer service employee said I was crazy because they have never had 1 recall on my vehicle and that she was going to report my VIN number for illegal reporting of recalls to have repairs that I want free of charge then proceeded to tell me my kind are liars, stealing from Americans and needed to be taken to my country and I would be in trouble for calling them falsely reporting repairs needed to gain free mechanic repairs so I would not have to come out of pocket.

MY LEFT TIRE BLEW OUT AND I HAD NO FLAT TIRE INDICATOR ON MY DASHBOARD WHILE TRAVELLING FULL SPEED ON THE FREEWAY. THE NEXT DAY MY ENGINE STALLED WITH NO WARNING OF LOW/NO OIL IN MY CAR. BOTH OF THE ISSUES COULD HAVE CAUSED A FATALITY OR MULTIPLE FATALITIES WHEN A 2012 VW CC LUXURY JUST STOPS WITH NO WARNING. I HAVE CALLED VW CORPORATE AND OF COURSE THEY STATED THEY CANNOT HELP ME SINCE THIS REPAIR IS NOT A RECALL ITEM: HOWEVER, I SEE TONS OF COMPLAINTS REGARDING THE 2.0 ENGINE IN MY CAR MANUFACTURED BY VW. THIS MATTER NEEDS TO BE RESOLVED IMMEDIATELY AND NOT IGNORED. VW NEEDS TO COVER MY ENGINE COST AT 100% THEY KNOW IT IS FAULTY AND TO COMPLETELY IGNORE ALL THE COMPLAINTS BEFORE MINE IS ASININE.

TAKATA RECALL : SOON AFTER I PURCHASED MY USED 2012 VW CC , THE PROBLEMS STARTED : AIRBAG LIGHT TURNED ON , AT THE SAME TIME HORN BECAME INOPERATIVE AND STEERING WHEEL CONTROLS BECAME DISABLED. NHTSA RECALL # 16V078, NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 16V078000 , MANUFACTURE'S RECALL # 69M9, RECALL DATE 02.09.2016. RECALL STATUS: RECALL INCOMPLETE. REMEDY NOT YET AVAILABLE ! THE SECOND RECALL IS : TIRES - PRESSURE MONITORING AND REGULATING SYSTEMS ( TPM ). FLATE TIRE IMAGE ON AND OFF EVERY DAY A LOT OF TIMES PER DAY, DESPITE THE TIRE PRESSURE IS OK. DEFECTIVE AIRBAG ( INFLATOR ) ALONG WITH DEFECTIVE TPM ARE BOTH MAJOR SAFETY ISSUES AND IN NEED TO FIX IT ASAP FREE OF CHARGE. VOLKSWAGEN OF KEARNY MESA SAN DIEGO OFFERED TO FIX THE AIRBAG AT HIGH PRICE ! DRIVING WITH THOSE PROBLEMS IS DANGEROUS ! I DID NOT WRITE DIRECTLY TO VOLKSWAGEN OF AMERICA, BUT I AM GOING TO DO IT !

!. SINCE THE PURCHASE OF MY CAR I HAD COMPLAINED NUMEROUS TIMES ABOUT THE SLUGGISHNESS OF MY CAR, STOHLMAN ADMITS THERE WAS A PROBLEM BUT WOULD NOT REPAIR BECAUSE THE ENGINE LIGHT WAS NOT ON, ACCORDING TO THEM. ENGINE CAME ON, TOOK IT TO A DEALERSHIP CLOSER TO HOME SAME THING, WOULD NOT ADDRESS THE MISFIRING ISSUE. MIND YOU, MY CAR WAS STILL UNDER WARRANTY. NOW THE ENGINE LIGHT STAYS ON, NOW WARRANTY HAS ENDED. SEVERAL CYLINDERS MISFIRING. I WANT STOHLMAN TO CORRECT THE ISSUE. MY TIRE PRESSURE SCREEN NEVER READ THE SAME NUMBER SINCE PURCHASE, I HAD SPOKEN ABOUT THIS TOO BUT WAS ALWAYS TOLD THAT THE HEATING AND COOLING OFF OF THE TIRES WILL GIVE DIFFERENT READINGS. THE CAR HAS TO RETURNED LESS THAN A MONTH OF PURCHASE BECAUSE OF A CLUNKING SOUND. THEY CLAIMED THAT THEY DID THE INSPECTION THE QUALIFY THE CAR AS CERTIFICATED, I TRULY DO NOT BELIEVE IT. I AM TIRED OF THE ISSUES AND NEED RESOLUTION. THERE WAS NO WAY YOU COULD AVOID THE SOUND, THEY GOT THE CAR IN MARCH 2014, I PURCHASED IN MAY 2014. ALSO, I HAD TO CONSTANTLY PUT AIR IN MY TIRES.

CHRONIC LOW TIRE PRESSURE READINGS FROM MONITORING SYSTEM (TPMS). DEALER UNWILLING TO REPAIR DURING WARRANTY AND AFTER WARRANTY EXPIRATION. NOTIFIED DEALER AND VOLKSWAGEN OF AMERICA IN WRITING WITH NO RESPONSE. TIRES ARE LOOSING TIRE PRESSURE REGULARLY. FALSE POSITIVE DISPLAY FOR FLAT TIRE. THE TPMS WAS INDICATING PROBLEMS BEFORE 12K MILES AND THE TIRES ARE STILL LOOSING AIR AFTER 34K MILES. PROBLEMS HAVE BEEN ADDRESSED FOR OVER THREE YEARS AS DOCUMENTED ON DEALER SERVICE RECORDS. TIRE PRESSURE PROBLEMS ARE NOTED BY DASH DISPLAY WHEN IGNITION IS ON AND WHILE DRIVING, AND VERIFIED WITH MANUAL TIRE PRESSURE GAUGE. PRESSURE DROPS HAVE BEEN RECORED TO 23 PSI (33 PSI RECOMMENDED). PROBLEMS OCCUR INTERMITTENTLY. I HAVE PHOTO DOCUMENTATION AND RELATED SERVICE RECORDS VERIFYING THESE PROBLEMS. I CONSIDER THIS A VERY SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE.

THIS LETTER IS A FOLLOW UP TO A VERBAL COMPLAINT I FILED WITH VOLKSWAGEN CUSTOMER CARE. ON MAY18TH 2011, THE RIGHT FRONT WHEEL ON MY 2012 VW CC SHATTERED AS I DROVE DOWN INTERSTATE 95 AS IT PASSES THRU THE TOWN OF GREENWICH. MY CONCERN IS FOCUSED ON THE SAFETY OF THE WHEEL DESIGN AND MY BELIEF THAT THE OVER INFLATION OF THE TIRES CONTRIBUTED TO RIM FAILURE. THE INCIDENT OCCURRED AT APPROXIMATELY 10AM ON THAT DAY THERE WERE NO VISIBLE DEFECTS IN THE ROAD AND THE CAR THAT PULLED OVER BEHIND ME CONFIRMED THE ABSENCE OF ANY LARGE POTHOLES. WHILE DRIVING IN THE MIDDLE LANE THE CAR CLEARLY CAME IN CONTACT WITH AN IRREGULARITY, ONE THAT EVERY CAR BEFORE AND AFTER WAS ABLE TO TRANSVERSE WITHOUT A PROBLEM. IN MY CASE THE RIM SHATTERED AND SEPARATED FROM THE CAR CAUSING A LOSS OF CONTROL. I WAS ABLE TO PULL TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. THE CAR THAT WAS BEHIND ME PULLED OVER AFTER SEEING WHAT HE DESCRIBED AS AN EXPLOSION ON THE RIGHT FRONT SIDE. I HAVE ATTACHED PICTURES OF THE RIM. CLEARLY SHOWING PRODUCT FAILURE. WHEN THE TOW TRUCK ARRIVED, HE COMMENTED THAT HE HAS NEVER WITNESSED RIM FAILURE LIKEN THAT. THE DEALER UPON REVIEW OF THE DAMAGE CONCURRED. MY CONCERN IS TWOFOLD. ONE THE SAFETY OF THE DESIGN AND CONSTRUCTION OF THE RIM AND THE OVER INFLATION UPON DELIVERY OF THE TIRES WHICH CONTRIBUTED TO THE WEAKNESS OF THE DESIGN. I AM REQUESTING AN INQUIRY INTO THE SAFETY OF THIS DESIGN, THE TRAINING OF THE STAFF ON PROPER INFLATION GUIDELINES AND THE REIMBURSEMENT FOR COSTS ASSOCIATED WITH THIS FAILURE
