When driving the car the GPS looses its location making it impossible to proceed to a planned destination. It causes you to try to fix the issue while driving and locating a place to pull off the road. It has taken me to places were I did not want to go. The dealer can’t fix the problem.

The GPS system will not work in the vehicle that includes the built in GPS navigation, Apple Maps, Google Maps and WAZE GPS. This is a major safety issue because you cannot drive safely and look at maps. This problem is effecting hundreds of VWs and they do not have a solution.
