2013 Volkswagen Cc Problems

While I was driving I notice my steering wheel making a crumbling of plastic noise when I made any kind of turn . A few days later my Airbag error lamp started to blink. I parked and restarted my engine then the airbag became solid . My dash read “Airbag Error” . I notice all my steering wheel buttons do not work . Came home and neither does my horn . My car has never been in accident , but I feel it’s a safety hazard . I’m basically driving mute and I’m sure my airbag will not deploy in case of accident . Also, Vw does have a recall on the Clock spring but was never completed due to not hearing back from manufacturer . That was a few years back and do not understand how recalls work , but a recall was started for a reason and NOT completed. Is that even possible? This a serious safety issue if I’m in an accident without an Airbag . Also the horn will not work in case to warn other drivers of a possible fatal hazard

The contact owns a 2013 Volkswagen CC. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, the air bag warning light illuminated. Additionally, the horn was inoperable. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic who informed the contact that no fault codes were retrieved. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 79,652.

FAILURE OF THE INLET MAIFOLD FOUND FROM CHECK ENGINE LIGHT. IT HAS HAPPENED TWICE 2 YEARS APART. ONE AT APPROX.92000 AND AGAIN AT 111000

DRIVING HOME ON THE FREEWAY THE ENGINE STARTED MAKING ABNORMAL NOISE (TICKING). CALLED THE DEALERSHIP WHERE I PURCHASED THE CAR AND LET THEM KNOW I WAS BRINGING IT IN TO BE CHECKED OUT. ON THE WAY THERE THE ENGINE STOPPED RUNNING AND I PULLED OVER AND HAD IT TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP. SEVERAL DAYS LATER DEALERSHIP CALLED AND TOLD ME THE TIMING CHAIN BROKE AND CATASTROPHICLY DESTROYED THE ENGINE. PURCHASED THE VEHICLE CERTIFIED USED WITH 25,578 MILES. AT THE TIME OF THE ENGINE FAILURE IT HAD 62,569 MILES. THE TIMING CHAIN THAT DESTROYED THE ENGINE PREMATURELY FAILED. I HEARD ABOUT A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT SETTLEMENT IN NEW JERSEY FOR THIS PROBLEM AND IT APPEARED MY MAKE AND MODEL VEHICLE WAS IN THE GROUP TO BE REIMBURSED FOR DAMAGES. WITH NO OTHER OPTIONS I HAD TO TAKE MONEY FROM MY RETIREMENT SAVINGS AND REPLACE THE ENGINE. AFTER ABOUT ONE MONTH I RECEIVED A TEXT FROM THE DEALERSHIP SAYING THEY HAD BAD NEWS. APPARENTLY AFTER REPLACING THE ENGINE, THEY STARTED THE CAR AND IN TWO MINUTES THEY HEARD AN ABNORMAL KNOCK COMING FROM THE ENGINE AND TOLD ME THAT THE NEW ENGINE WAS GOING TO NEED TO BE REPLACED. NOW I JUST FOUND OUT THAT MY YEAR VEHICLE 2013 CC VW IS NOT PART OF THE CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT. ALL THE EXACT ISSUES I HAVE BEEN READING ABOUT HAVE HAPPENED TO MY VEHICLE. OBVIOUSLY THIS DEFECT IS NOT LIMITED TO ONLY THE VEHICLES IN THE CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT. I PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE AND PAID EXTRA FOR IT BECAUSE IT WAS CERTIFIED USED. I NEEDED A VERY RELIABLE COMMUTE VEHICLE TO GET TO WORK AND BACK HOME SAFELY. AFTER THE DEALERSHIP HAVING MY CAR FOR OVER TWO MONTHS, I WAS DRIVING A COUPLE DAYS LATER AND THE CAR HESITATED AT A STOP AND THE SERVICE ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. HAD IT TOWED BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY TOLD ME ONE OF THE FUEL INJECTORS WAS "ACTING UP". VWOF A KNEW ABOUT THIS PROBLEM AND SHOULD HAVE RECALLED THE TIMING CHAIN. NOW I HAVE TO GIVE THEM MORE MONEY!!!

WHEN I TRY TO START MY CAR, MY STEERING STARTS SHAKING BADLY FOR 30 SECONDS. THE WHOLE CAR IS SHAKING AS WELL. AFTER THE SHAKING, THE STEERING FREEZES AND LOCKED. THE RED STEERING WORKING SIGN SHOWS UP. I CANNOT DRIVE THE CAR AT ALL. THE SAME ISSUE HAS BEEN WIDELY REPORTED BY MANY VW CUSTOMERS ONLINE. YOU CAN FIND SEVERAL VIDEOS ON YOUTUBE. VW DEALERS TOLD ME THEY CANNOT FIX IT AND REFUSED TO REPLACE IT AS WELL.

SOMETHING IN THE FRONT LEFT WHEN I GET SPEED OVER 55 MILES

I HAVE REPLACE TWO SET OF TIRES ON MY 2013 VOLKSWAGEN CC. I TWICE BY TWO DIFFERENT VEHICLE MAINTENANCE COPIES THAT BOTH SET OF TIRES SHOWED CUPPING WEAR. THIS IS DUE TO VEHICLE SUSPENSION, SHOCKS, STRUTS. CURRENTLY THERE A LARGE NUMBER OF CUSTOMERS WHO PURCHASE THE VOLKSWAGEN CC MODEL COMPLAINING OF THE SAME PROBLEM. THERE WAS ALSO AN APPARENT LAWSUIT FILE (CASE 1:17-CV-23033-RNS), AGAINST VOLKSWAGEN OF AMERICA REGARDING THE SAME ISSUE MANY CUSTOMERS ARE HAVING. I FILED A COMPLAINT WITH VOLKSWAGEN OF AMERICA REGARDING MY PROBLEM, STATING THAT IN THE PASS COUPLE OF YEARS I HAD TO REPLACE TWO SET OF TIRES FOR THIS REASON. TIRE CUPPING CAN BE VERY DANGEROUS DUE TO UNEVEN TIRE WARE, NOT TO MENTION THE SUSPENSION BEING THE MAIN PROBLEM OF THE VEHICLE. IMPROPER SUSPENSION COULD LEAD TO DANGEROUS BREAKING ISSUES. AFTER READING THE MANY REVIEWS FROM CUSTOMERS COMPLAINING ABOUT THE SAME ISSUE, AND REPORTING THIS ISSUE TO VOLKSWAGEN TO NO AVAIL SINCE 2010. I'M ASKING NNTSA TO PLEASE INVESTIGATE THIS DANGEROUS ISSUE THAT VOLKSWAGEN IS NOT ADMITTING TO. I HAVE INCLUDED THE COURT DOCUMENT THAT WAS FILED IN AUGUST OF 2017.

SOMETHING IN THE FRONT LEFT WHEN I GET SPEED OVER 55 MILES

ONE TIME IN THE HIGHWAY SPEED MAY BE 80 MILES SOME BODY FRONT ME TRY TO STOP QUICKLY AND WHEN I TRY TO USED THE BREAK DOESN'T HELP ME, NO BREAK AND I GET LEFT ROUTE IN THE SHOULDER BECAUSE I HAVEN'T BREAK SYSTEM

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 VOLKSWAGEN CC. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE REAR BRAKE LIGHTS FAILED TO OPERATE WHEN THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED. THE LAMP WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE DEALER WSA NOT CONTACTED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 45,000. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

ONE TIME IN THE HIGHWAY SPEED MAY BE 80 MILES SOME BODY FRONT ME TRY TO STOP QUICKLY AND WHEN I TRY TO USED THE BREAK DOESN'T HELP ME, NO BREAK AND I GET LEFT ROUTE IN THE SHOULDER BECAUSE I HAVEN'T BREAK SYSTEM

WHILE DRIVING IN RUSH HOUR TRAFFIC AT 43 TO 50 MPH, VEHICLE SUDDENLY LOSS ABILITY TO MOVE WHILE ENGINE WAS STILL RUNNING, (LIKE IT HAD BEEN SWITCHED TO NEUTRAL). THE ENGINE JUST REVVED AS THE CAR CAME TO A STOP ON THE HIGHWAY WITHOUT WARNING. THE PARK BRAKE LIGHT CAME ON AND THE DRIVE INDICATOR LIGHT STARTED FLASHING. THIS WAS A VERY UNSAFE CONDITION WHILE OTHER DRIVERS WERE BLOWING AND YELLING AT ME FOR BLOCKING TRAFFIC. AFTER SITTING FOR ABOUT 7 TO 10 MINUTES THE VEHICLE WAS RESTARTED AND DROVE NORMALLY.

WHILE TRAVELING ON THE FREEWAY IN SAN DIEGO, MY CAR STARTED SHAKING AND LOSING POWER. THEN THE EPC & CHECK ENGINE LIGHTS TURNED ON, ON THE DASHBOARD. I WAS BARELY ABLE TO PULL OVER TO THE SHOULDER, AND DRIVE OFF THE UPCOMING EXIT RAMP. I LOST TOTAL ENGINE POWER, AND I HAD TO CALL THE TOWING TRUCK TO TAKE ME TO THE CLOSEST DEALERSHIP, AS THE CAR IS STILL UNDER WARRANTY. I WAITED 5 HOURS TO FIND OUT WHAT WAS HAPPENING, AS I LIVE IN ANOTHER CITY. THE DEALERSHIP TECHNICIAN TOLD ME THAT THEY RECORDED SEVERAL PISTON MISFIRES, BUT AFTER RESETTING THE COMPUTER, THE FAULTS NEVER CAME BACK. THEIR INTERNAL POLICY REQUIRED THE FAULT TO BE PRESENT FOR THE COMPANY TO COMPLY TO REPLACE FAULTY PARTS, EVEN WHEN THEY HAD THE RECORDS. THEY TOLD ME THEY COULD NOT HELP ME, AND ADVISED TO TAKE THE CAR AND DRIVE IT TO THE DEALERSHIP WHERE I LIVED. I DID SO, AND I GOT THE SAME RESPONSE FROM MY LOCAL DEALERSHIP. THEY TOLD ME THEY WOULD NOT HELP ME DUE TO INTERNAL POLICIES, AND THAT I SHOULD DRIVE THE CAR AS IS, UNTIL THE ISSUE CAME UP AGAIN. I EXPLAINED THIS COULD PUT ME & MY FAMILY AT RISK OF INJURY, EVEN POSSIBLE DEATH DUE TO A HIGHWAY ACCIDENT, NOT TO MENTION THE COST I COULD INCUR FOR ANOTHER TOW TRUCK & HOTEL EXPENSES. THEY DECLINED TO REPLACE THE PARTS, EVEN AFTER I OPENED A CASE WITH THEIR CUSTOMER SUPPORT MANAGER. I EXPLAINED I WOULD HAVE TO SEEK LEGAL ADVICE AS I FELT I WAS BEING A VICTIM OF FRAUD BY WV COMPANY. THE LOCAL DEALERSHIP NOT ONLY NOT FIXED MY PROBLEM, BUT HE CHARGED ME WITH A CHECK-UP FEE. I COULD NOT BE MORE DISSAPOINTED AT THIS COMPANY.

UNDERBODY PROTECT SHIELD ON PASSENGER SIDE HAS TORN OFF FOUR TIMES UNDER NORMAL DRIVING CONDITIONS. THE MOST RECENT (12/23/2016) ON INTERSTATE 80 DRIVING WEST IN NEBRASKA RESULTING IN PIECES BREAKING OFF ONTO ONCOMING TRAFFIC. CAR WAS TRAVELING AT POSTED SPEEDS (APP 75MPH). ROADS WERE CLEAR, NO RAIN, GOOD HIGHWAY CONDITIONS. THIS HAS HAPPENED THREE TIMES PREVIOUSLY AND VW SUPPOSEDLY "FIXED" AT THE OWNER'S EXPENSE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 VOLKSWAGEN CC. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT 80 MPH, THE TRUNK OPENED INDEPENDENTLY SEVERAL TIMES. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 68,000.

LOW BEAM LIGHTS STOP WORKING. TURN LIGHTS OFF AND THEN BACK ON, LIGHTS WOULD WORK FOR 3 MINUTES. MUST REPEAT TO KEEP LIGHTS ON. THIS IS BOTH IN MOTION AND STATIONARY.

AUTOMATIC HEADLIGHT FAILURE; APPARENTLY THE MOTOR IN THE HEADLIGHT FAILS LEAVING THE LIGHTS IN INAPPROPRIATE POSITION FOR NIGHT DRIVING; DEALER HAS THE CRUX OF THE PROBLEM BUT SEEMS LIKE AN UNUSUAL FAILURE, ESPECIALLY IF IT OCCURS WHILE DRIVING AT NIGHT; NOW THE HEADLIGHT IS IN A FIXED POSITION WHICH MAY NOT BE STRAIGHT; IT OCCURRED SPONTENOUSLY WHEN THE CARE TURNED ON

2013 VOLKSWAGEN CC EQUIPPED WITH CONTINENTAL CONTI PRO CONTACT TIRES. WHILE DRIVING AT ALL SPEEDS, AN ABNORMALLY LOUD NOISE EMITTED FROM THE TIRES. THE VEHICLE HAD LESS THAN 15000 MILES ON THE TIRES WHEN THE PROBLEM BEGAN. THE ROAD NOISE GOT PROGRESSIVELY WORSE AND EVENTUALLY TOOK THE CAR TO THE DEALER. THE DEALER STATED THAT THE PROBLEM IS DUE TO CUPPING OF THE TIRES AND THAT I WOULD NEED TO REPLACE THE TIRES AND GET A REALIGNMENT. THE CAR HAS BEEN SERVICED ON A REGULAR BASIS THROUGH THE DEALER AND THE DEALER DID NOT MENTION ANY ISSUES WITH ALIGNMENT DURING THE SERVICES. OTHER OWNERS HAD PROVIDED SIMILAR ISSUES ON THE INTERNET AND THAT THE ISSUE HAD NOT RESOLVED AFTER BOTH NEW TIRES AND REALIGNMENT IN MANY CASES. THE ISSUE SEEMS TO BE RELATED TO BAD ALIGNMENT OR BALL JOINTS IN THE SUSPENSION WITH THE VEHICLE. I PLACED A COMPLAINT WITH VW AND THEY WOULD NOT FURNISH HOW MANY SIMILAR ISSUES WERE REPORTED BY THE CONSUMERS. VW CASE# 160380592.
