Only happens when it is really cold. Try getting the dealer to fix something "they can't find".

problem #1

(reported on)

Passat SE 1.9TDI

  • Manual transmission
  • 2,800 miles

the electronic parking brake should release when the driver is wearing the seatbelt and the gears are engaged . Bu my car has an intermittent fault causing their action to fail sometimes once every couple of days sometimes two or thee times daily on a random basis. The car is three months old but the dealer cannot find a problem and refuses to carry out any work unless they can recover the cost under warranty leaving the problem with me. Nice Car? Yes, Driving experience ? bad ,Customer service NON EXISTENT
