Fault on anti locking brake (ABS), indicated by illumination on dash, ESC light on and flashing brake light on. Dealer was notified that issue as listed in safety recall 16V-913 applies to other vehicles not listed on VIN range. This is a huge safety concern and needs to be addressed as others have indicated the same issue exists on their models not covered by VIN recall. Customer service (VW) was called, per dealer direction and customer service at VW does not know how to read the VIN codes or can tell me which VIN code makes the faulty ABS module applicable or not applicable to my vehicle.

Car spontaneously caught fire while driving

- Winter Park, FL, USA

Abs and stability control became inoperative at around 50mph. It's a 55mph road thats heavily trafficked since its near a port. I had to stop the car on the side of the road since we almost crashed into an 18 wheeler. Fortunately we were close to home I drove the car at a reasonable speed just to get home. After that incident we have stopped using this vehicle since it gets even more dangerous every time, especially when it rains. Since then brake light has come on and hydraulic and suspension has been bad. This happened last year when pandemic was still full force and without a vehicle. Had to save and buy a more reliable vehicle for our own safety. I know this is a really good car but i really hope y-€™all can help me fix this since it-€™s really not the consumer-€™s fault. I-€™ve checked there is a recall for this but my -€œJetta-€ is not in those vehicles that were recalled. I really cant drive the vehicle therefore i have no use for it. Please let me know if something could be done since i wouldn-€™t like to pay out of pocket for something that could be done by the manufacturer and even save our and others life-€™s in the future when more vehicle owners come forward. Thank you for your time.

the vehicle ABS module failed back in Nov2020 and was brought to local VW Dealer and diagnosed as bad module. fast forward to Aug 2021 and ABS module failed again and bad wiring was found which is why the first module failed to begin with in my belief. both times when the module failed was after my wife slammed on brakes hard activating the ABS system which in turn caused the warning lights to come on and car go into limp mode. I tried limping the car to the dealership for repair and was almost hit by a large truck coming from behind as I had no response from the accelerator pedal. I am not sure why this particular VIN was never added to the recall list as it fits the criteria as all other vehicles experiencing this issue. we paid $2600 the first time for the repair and are now out more money to have this known problem fixed again !

I was driving down a busy road when I saw smoke coming out from under my hood of the car. I immediately pulled over onto a side street and popped the hood. The engine was engulfed in flames. I then pulled my panicked 4 year old daughter out of her car seat and took her across the street. We then called 9-11 and the sheriff's department and fire department showed up to put out the fire. I had my car towed to a mechanic where he says the fire was caused by a fuel line. There is a recall for the same year and model for my car but it is not for my VIN# even though it's the same cause as my car's fire!

Ongoing occurrence: When I start my car the sunroof tilts open. I start to drive and the sunroof would start randomly open and close without me touching knob to open sunroof. I could push on knob and sunroof closes from tilt position and at times it would just open right back up. This occurs during driving and without driving with car ignition on. Seems like electrical issue within the sunroof controller.

Key wont turn, as if there is a locked steering wheel (even though there isn't). After about 30 minutes, was able to get the car started, but couldn't turn the car back off without applying an overly strong inward pressure to turn off the car. The ignition switch is stiff and locks up.

Rear driver side door locking mechanism has failed, in the unlocked position, rendering securing the vehicle impossible. There is no secondary method of locking the door, since the actuator is solely electrically operated. There are also indications that this condition is responsible for draining the car's battery when left for more than 5 days without starting.

Ignition switch stopped working and car would not turn on. Cost $800 dollars to replace.

My vehicle shuts off while driving and I see certain lights show up when this happens the I lose the control of the vehicle until it powers back on. I've already ruled out the battery and alternator in the vehicle. I looked up recalls and though there is not one associated with my VIN there are recalls that are very similar to my issue that I have from December 15, 2016. When the vehicles electronics shut of the wheel locks making me unable to turn. When the electronics come back on I regain full mobility.

My 2010 Jetta wolfsburg's locks do not work whenever it rains - driver's side door is locked when unlock car, but other doors are unlocked. Have to use key to open door. Furthermore, the passenger door on driver's side does not lock at all so can be opened when parked at a light, etc. The car has a sunroof and when rains condensation builds up around passenger side door and window on driver's side (have seen mildew and mold growing so clean after ever rain). Radio was working and died during rain. Fuses are ok. Dealer says radio is dead and $900 to replace with a factory one. I am concerned about side airbags working along with being able to open a door that should be locked.

The door locks/latches for VW Jetta wolfsburg edition 2010 are not working (currently, three out of four doors/latches are not working). The estimated cost for replacement is $595 per door latch (total estimated cost: $1,785). While it may pose a safety risk, it is also possible that the side airbags may or may not work when there are electrical issues with the door locks/latches. There is also a possibility for theft when the door locks are not working. Also, turn signals on both side-view mirrors are not working. The estimated cost for replacement of turn signal on each side is $437 (total estimated cost: $874). For the replacement of defective door locks/latches (3 out of 4 doors) and turn signals on side-view mirrors (both left and right side), the estimated total cost will be $2,659. Another important point: Between December 2017 and December 2018, there were several problems in this car (VW Jetta wolfsburg edition 2010). Examples of these problems were clock-spring/airbag/engine-light-on, build-up of carbon in engine valves, coolant and water pump leakage, and timing chain/tensioner. During this one-year period with 3 visits to VW dealership/service department, an amount of over $5,000 has already been spent. Thus, there is a constant problem with VW Jetta wolfsburg edition 2010.

Same... I couldn't turn off my car or take the keys out, the car was on for more that 3 hrs, took the car to VW and they are charging me $800+ for fixing it, I let my car there and it was still on. This is a VW problem, and they should do a recall and/or at least recognize part of the fixing on these models, where is the consumer product help? we need a recall on this ignition box problems, this is dangerous. Also they should reimburse all of
