The 2.0T tsi engine was made with a faulty timing chain tensioner which will fail and cause the timing chain to break causing immediate catastrophic engine damage putting the driver and occupants in danger because of loss of power and difficulty steering. I am extremely blessed that I noticed the car was acting funny and exited off the highway. It's ridiculous to me how the timing chain could cause that much damage to the engine. The engine obviously has been created with a faulty design, so now I'm expected to pay to replace a faulty engine with another faulty engine. It's extremely upsetting that after I sent my vehicle in for issues with a recall, fuel pump, that my vehicle would just self destruct like this

When vehicle is in motion there has been multiple times I came close to getting in an accident due to being unable to use my horn. My horn and controls not work due to the clock spring harness. The VW clock spring warranty will not cover the fix due to my airbag light not being on yet. My horn not working alone is a safety issue and they refuse to see it that way.

Hood latch prevents hood from opening. VW knows this problem is a manufacturing defect and they refuse to repair it without a charge of $250 including the part. The cooling system has a error light glowing when there is no problem. The warning system shows various parts as malfunctroning but appears the diagnostic module is at fault.

The trunk stopped working along with the fog lights and reverse lights on the trunk. It appears to have been happening many Cc and is a manufacturing design is faulty. Hoping that other are reporting the flaw too.

Faulty clock spring causing horn and steering wheel controls not to work. The main concern is the fact that my horn never works. When in daily traffic where I am constantly having to honk my horn to prevent someone from hitting me, my life is at risk with this well known VW issue.

Error air bag error was the error that appears on my display when I turn on car. Horn & all buttons on steering wheel stopped working. This is on the VW Cc year is 2012. I am told by service department it is due to a failure of the clockspring hence I must replace the clockspring with control unit and part only is almost 450 dollars, and labor is additional.
