This data is from the NHTSA — the US gov't agency tasked with vehicle safety. Complaints are spread across multiple & redundant categories, & are not organized by problem.
So how do you find out what problems are occurring? For this NHTSA complaint data, the only way is to read through the comments below. Any duplicates or errors? It's not us.
The contact owns a 2010 Volkswagen Cc. While operating the vehicle, the air bag sensor light illuminated. The cause of the failure was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was not notified. The failure mileage was 65,000.
I purchased my 2010 VW Cc used in May 11, 2013 at 35,000 miles--it had two previous owners. Ever since that time, the steering wheel clock spring has been making a chafing noise whenever the steering wheel is turned. More recently, the noise has become louder, and I hope that the ribbon cable within it will not tear and cause an airbag deployment when not in an accident, or a non-deployment when in an accident. I have not bothered to take it to a VW dealer due to the car being out of the 3-year/36,000 warranty and due to excessive prices charged by dealerships. Luckily, the airbag warning light has not yet illuminated. I received a recall notice indicating that a remedy is not yet available. This is unacceptable. The notice also mentioned that hair and/or fibers are to blame--I don't see this as being possible, as hair would rarely fall that far forward of the driver's head, and the previous two owners and I are males with short-cut hair.
