VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION ON CITY STREET IN NORTH CHATHAM, MA. SMELL OF BURNING. PULLED OVER AND DISCOVERED THAT THE ELECTRIC SEAT HEATER HAD BURNT A HOLE IN THE DRIVERS SEAT BACK. A HOLE WAS ALSO BURNT IN THE OUTER LAYER OF MY GOOSE DOWN COAT WHERE IT MADE CONTACT WITH BURNING SEA…

DISPLAYING ABS LIGHT, ELECTRONIC STABILITY LIGHT, EMERGENCY BRAKE BEEPS THEN LIGHT REMAINS ON BLINKING, STEERING ALIGNMENT LIGHT DISPLAYS, CHANGED OUT THE REAR ABS SENSORS AND THE RIGHT REAR WHEEL HUB, ALL LIGHTS REMAIN ON. BECAUSE MY CAR WAS MANUFACTURED IN 2007 IT IS NOT PART O…

WHILE STARTING THE CAR, SEVERAL DIAGNOSTIC LIGHTS CAME ON, INCLUDING THE ECP AND CHECK ENGINE LIGHT. ENTERING THE REVERSE GEAR MADE THE CAR ACCELERATE FAST BACKWARDS WHEN RELEASING THE BREAKS BUT NOT USING THE GAS PEDAL TO ACCELERATE. THE SURPRISE IT CAME WITH COULD HAVE LED TO…

MY KEY IS STUCK IN THE IGNITION ON THE ACC POSITION. I CAN ONLY START THE CAR. IT WILL NOT TURN TO THE OFF POSITION. THE ONLY WAY I AM ABLE TO SHUT OFF THE CAR IS TO PULL 2 FUSES UNDER THE HOOD. VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY WHEN THIS PROBLEM BEGAN.

UPON APPROACHING A RED LIGHT BRAKES WERE APPLIED BUT DID NOT SLOW THE VEHICLE. RATHER THAN STOPPING THE PEDAL DEPRESSED TO THE FLOOR WITH RESISTANCE BUT NEVER SLOWED THE VEHICLE RESULTING IN A REAR END COLLISION.

LIGHTAIR BAG WARNING INDICATOR REVS AND SLOWS ABRUPTLY; FUEL SYSTEM LIGHT PAINT FLAKING OFF VEHICLE

DOWNSHIFTING HARD ON ITS ON OIL LEAKING ON TOP AND BOTTOM OF ENGINE

THE SEAT HEATERS ARE NOT REGULATING TEMPERATURE CONSISTENTLY AND I NOTICED THE DRIVER'S SEAT HAS A HOLE BURNED IN IT FROM THE HEATER. I AM AFRAID TO USE IT IN CASE IT CAUSES A FIRE, SINCE IT APPEARS IT ALREADY BURNED A HOLE.

AIRBAG WARNING LIGHT KEEPS COMING ON STATING MAULFUCTION WHEN CHECKED COULD NOT FIND PROBLEM.WAS TOLD DO NOT WORRY ABOUT IT DO I HAVE A REASON TO WORRY???

ABS CONTROL MODULE - APPROXIMATELY $2,000 TO REPLACE VW HAS ALREADY RECALLED THE ABS CONTROL MODULE FOR '08 AND UP CARS...I HAPPEN TO HAVE AN '07 WITH THE SAME MODULE THAT IS NOT COVERED BY THE RECALL.

HALOGEN HEADLAMP BULB LIFETIME IS SHORTER THAN EXPECTED. TOO OFTEN I HAVE TO BUY NEW BULBS AND IT'S VERY UNSAFE ON THE ROAD DURING A DAY.

AT RANDOM, THE TRACTION CONTROL ABS LIGHT ON THE DASHBOARD CLUSTER HAS GONE OFF. THE MECHANIC STATES THAT THE ISSUE IS THE ABS MODULE, AND THAT IT NEEDS REPLACING. THERE IS NO KNOWN REASON FOR ITS FAILURE, BUT THE VEHICLE IS NOW WITHOUT ABS. A SIMILAR RECALL WAS ISSUED FOR OTHER …

KEY WON'T COME OFF THE IGNITION! CAN'T TURN THE CAR OFF!

WHILE DRIVING AND ATTEMPTING TO STOP THE BRAKES BECOME VERY STIFF AND PUSH UP AGAINST YOUR FOOT SIMILAR TO WHAT TRACTION CONTROL DOES BUT THE MORE YOU PRESS ON TH BRAKE PEDDLE THE HARDER IT BECOMES TO STOP. THIS IS INTERMITTENT BUT ALARMING ENOUGH THAT THE CAR IS NOT BEING USED.

TAKATA RECALL, THE AIR BAG LIGHT APPEARED ON THE DASHBOARD. I BROUGHT MY VEHICLE TO A LOCAL VOLKSWAGEN DEALER TO CHECK IT AND I WAS THE AIR BAG DEFECTED ON THE PASSENGER SIDE; AND I WAS TOLD THAT THE AIR BAG WAS NOT ON THE RECALL. I WONDER WHY VOLKSWAGEN RABBIT 2007 WAS NOT ON…

THE TRANSMISSION FAILED THE GEARS WERE HARD TO ENGAGE WHEN DRIVING IT. FINALLY IT LEFT MY DAUGHTER AND GRANDDAUGHTER STRANDED IN THE STREET ON HER WAY TO WORK. *TR
