2012 VOLKSWAGEN CC Air Bags Problems

The Power Steering keeps failing while driving. It is available for inspection, ASAP. This is a very dangerous hazard to lose the ability to steer the vehicle at any speed. I have not taken to my mechanic, yet. I have read all sorts of problems with steering since the Takata Air Bag Replacement Recall. Ever since the AirBag Replacement, many of my warning lights have been illuminated. The Dealer told me it is due to the Sensors on my Tires. I see they were previously recalled and now I have a problem with them, too. Right before the Steering Fails, I hear a gone and the Red Steering Wheel Light illuminates. I am then forced to slowly get off the road, barely able to turn the wheel, turn off the vehicle and re-start the engine to get the Power Steering to Re-Set itself. It is happening more and more often. Just went to Doctor appt Friday and it happened five (5) times going to and from Doctor (14 mile round trip). I see Dealers are telling people it is a Clock Spring and they are charing up to $ 6,800. to repair. My car only has 56,000. miles on it !!!

I BROUGHT THIS CAR ABOUT 3MONTHS AGO ANDRIVE ONE DAY ABS ERROR SO TOOK TO MECHANIC HE HOOKED TO MACHINE SAY REAR WHEEL DRIVER SIDE WHEEL SENSOR SO GOT THAT CHANGED THEN IT GAVE MORE CODE SAY COMPUTER NOT COMMUNICATING AN ALSO THE OTHER SENSORS OUT AN TCS PLUS STEERING ASST. SO I WENT ONLINE TO FIND OUT THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM THAT VW CAN'T EVEN FIX .BUT THERE STILL ALLOWED TO SALE THEM WITH OUT A FIX SO NOW I HAVE TO GUESS IF I HAVE BRAKES OR TCS AN FORGOT THE PARK BRAKE HAS A CODE AS WELL SO WILL ANYBODY FIX THIS PROBLEM OR DO MORE PEOPLE HAVE TO DIE IN CRASH OR WASTE MONEY TAKEN IT TO VOLKWAGAN AN NOT GET IT FIX TO FUNNY AN LIGHTS ON PARKED OR DRIVE CAN'T CLEAR CODES THANKS

I TOOK MY CAR TO GUNTHER VOLKSWAGEN OF FORT LAUDERDALE 1660 S STATE RD 7, FORT LAUDERDALE, FL 33317 (954) 420-7374. THEY REFUSED TO CHANGE THE TAKATA AIRBAG I WAS TOLD THAT THEY COULD NOT CONNECT THEIR EQUIPMENT . I WAS TOLD THAT I NEED TO PAY FOR THEM TO DO DIAGNOSTICS ON MY CAR. THEY WOULDN'T EVEN CHECK THE PROBLEM WITHOUT PAYING. I TOLD THEM THAT I COULD NOT AFFORD ANY REPAIRS AND THIS WAS A RECALL. THEY WOULD NOT EVEN LOOK AT MY CAR WITHOUT PAYING. SO I HAVE BEEN DRIVING WITH THE SAME AIRBAG. I CANNOT AFFORD THESE REPAIRS SO THERE'S NOTHING I CAN DO ABOUT THIS AIRBAG SITUATION. I ALREADY CALLED THE VOLKSWAGEN OF AMERICA AND THEY ARE NO HELP. IF ANYTHING CAN BE DONE I WOULD GREATLY APPRECIATED IT.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 VOLKSWAGEN CC. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE HORN WAS NOT WORKING BECAUSE THE CLOCKSPRING WAS MALFUNCTIONING.

AFTER THE REPAIR, THE FAILURE RECURRED WITHIN A FEW DAYS. WHEN THE CONTACT CALLED THE DEALER, THEY WANTED TO CHARGE $1,000 TO REPAIR THE VEHICLE AGAIN.

VW CLOCK SPRING RECALL INVESTIGATION DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD AT 35-40 MPH AND THE CAR BEEPS WITH "ERROR: AIRBAG" THEN THE STEERING WHEEL MADE A WEIRD NOISE. THE HORN AND CONTROLS ON THE STEERING WHEEL ARE NOT WORKING. I TOOK IT TO THE VIC BAILEY VW DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID IT WAS THE CLOCK SPRING THAT NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. I KNOW THERE IS AN INVESTIGATION INTO THE PREVIOUS RECALL AND I BELIEVE THAT MY CAR WAS AFFECTED BUT NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL.

STEPPING ON THE ACCELERATOR DOES NOT ALWAYS PRODUCT MOTION. DANGEROUS SITUATION WHEN MORE ACCELERATION IS NEEDED SUCH AS ON AN ENTRANCE RAMP OR PASSING OTHER VEHICLES OR HAVING TO ACCELERATE TO AVOID A CRASH. THIS HAS BEEN A CONSTANT SINCE WE PURCHASED THIS CAR (NEW) IN 2012. THE DEALER SERVICE DEPARTMENT TOLD US THIS A SPORT VEHICLE AND THERE IS NOT A PROBLEM WITH THE CAR AS LONG AS WE ACCELERATE HARDER. THE RECALL PARTS ARE STILL NOT AVAILABLE ACCORDING TO VW OF ORLAND PARK IL.

TAKATA RECALL - THERE ARE 3 RECALLS ON MY TYPE OF CAR. I HAVE EXPERIENCE ONE OF THE SERIOUS SYMPTOMS OF THE RECALL. PLEASE READ ALL. DRIVER FRONTAL AIRBAG INFLATOR COULD POTENTIALLY RUPTURE (DUE TO PROPELLANT DEGRADATION OCCURRING AFTER LONG-TERM EXPOSURE TO ABSOLUTE HIGH HUMIDITY AND TEMPERATURE CYCLING). 2ND VEHICLE HAS HAD INTERRUPTION OF ELECTRICAL POWER, WHICH CAUSED A DRAINED BATTERY AND NO START CONDITION. [ ON CERTAIN VEHICLES, THERE COULD BE AN INTERRUPTION IN ELECTRICAL POWER TO THE FUEL PUMP CONTROL MODULE. THIS COULD RESULT IN THE FUEL PUMP RUNNING CONTINUOUSLY, RESULTING IN A DRAINED BATTERY AND/OR A NO START CONDITION, OR CAUSE A LOSS OF MOTIVE POWER WHILE THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION]3.AIR OR OTHER FIBERS MAY CONTAMINATE THE AIRBAG CLOCK SPRING (A SPIRAL WOUND, FLAT CABLE THAT KEEPS THE AIRBAG POWERED WHILE THE STEERING WHEEL IS BEING TURNED). THIS CONTAMINATION MAY TEAR THE CABLE AND RESULT IN A LOSS OF ELECTRICAL CONNECTION TO THE DRIVER'S FRONTAL AIRBAG

1. TAKATA RECALL - AIRBAG NOT REPLACED YET. 2. RECALL FOR FOR FUEL PUMP CONTROL MODULE INFORMATION NOT RECEIVED YET.

I HAVE SPENT 1000 ON THE WATER PUMP REPAIR, PURCHASED 2 LIGHTS AT 110. AN THEWATER PUMP WENT OUR AGAIN FOR THE SECOND TIME IN 4 MONTHS.THE AIR BAG RECALL HAS BEEN RECALLED 3TIMES ALREADY I HAVE HAD TO TAKE IT IN. LIKE THIS VEHICLE HAS HAD TO MANY PROBLEMS ELECTRICAL . WHEN THE WATER PUMP OUT THE CAR WAS STATIONARY.

TL* TAKATA RECALL. THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 VOLKSWAGEN CC. THE CONTACT RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBERS: 16V078000 (AIR BAGS) AND 15V483000 (AIR BAGS). THE PARTS FOR THE RECALL REPAIRS WERE UNAVAILABLE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE MANUFACTURER EXCEEDED A REASONABLE AMOUNT OF TIME FOR THE RECALL REPAIRS.

THE CONTACT HAD NOT EXPERIENCED A FAILURE. PARTS DISTRIBUTION DISCONNECT.

TAKATA RECALL - THIS RECALL WAS ISSUED IN FEBRUARY 2016 UPON WHICH I WAS TOLD THEY DID NOT HAVE THE PARTS AVAILABLE. NOW, ONE YEAR AND EIGHT MONTHS LATER I'M RECEIVING NOTIFICATIONS ABOUT BRINGING MY VEHICLE IN TO BE REPAIRED. THE MOST RECENT STATES "THIS IS A SERIOUS ISSUE THAT MUST BE TAKEN CARE OF - DEFECTIVE COMPONENTS CAN CAUSE THE AIRPAG TO DEPLOY IMPROPERLY, SHOOTING METAL FRAGMENTS ANT DRIVERS AND PASSENGERS, WHICH CAN CAUSE SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH." I'M CONCERNED THAT IT TOOK NEARLY TWO YEARS TO RESOLVE THIS ISSUE, ESPECIALLY GIVEN THE STATEMENT BEING SENT OUT VIA POSTCARD. SECONDLY, NOW THERE IS YET ANOTHER RECALL FOR SOMETHING RELATED TO THE ELECTRICAL POWER TO THE FUEL PUMP MODULE. I HAVE ALREADY TAKEN MY VEHICLE IN MULTIPLE TIMES FOR A RELATED RECALL, ONE THAT LEFT ME STRANDED AND HAVING TO BE TOWED BEFORE VW EVER EVEN NOTIFIED ME. ABSOLUTELY UNREAL!

TAKATA RECALL - IN APRIL 2016, VW INFORMED ME THAT THE DRIVER'S SIDE AIRBAG WAS DEFECTIVE AND POTENTIALLY DANGEROUS. TODAY (JULY 5, 2017) I CALLED THE VW DEALER, AND THE VW DEALER CLAIMS THE PARTS FOR THE AIRBAG REPAIR WILL NOT BE AVAILABLE UNTIL SEPT. 30, 2017. THAT MEANS I WILL HAVE BEEN DRIVING AN UNSAFE CAR FOR 18 MONTHS. CAN NHTSA GET VW TO DO THE REPAIRS SOONER?

IT HAS BEEN OVER ONE YEAR SINCE THE AIRBAG ON MY VEHICLE HAS BEEN RECALLED AND VOLKSWAGEN HAS YET TO DO ANYTHING. THE TURBO ALSO SEEMS TO BE MALFUNCTIONING.

TAKATA RECALL - VW ISSUED THIS RECALL 14 MONTHS AGO IN FEBRUARY 2016. THEY STILL TELL ME THEY DO NOT HAVE THE PARTS TO REMEDY. THIS IS NOT ACCEPTABLE, ESPECIALLY WHEN THEY TELL YOU METAL SHRAPNEL COULD SHRED YOUR FACE AND NECK AND KILL YOU.

TAKATA RECALL. GOT A LETTER IN APRIL 2016. AIRBAGS NOT AVAILABLE. IT HAS BEEN ONE YEAR AND I HAVE CALLED SEVERAL TIMES AND STILL GET THE SAME ANSWER. NOT AVAILABLE. THIS IS A SAFETY RECALL AND THE COMPANY HAS HAD SUFFICIENT TIME TO REMEDY. THEY ARE MORE INTERESTED IN MONEY THAN SAVING LIVES/INJURIES. IS THERE ANYTHING WE CAN DO?

TAKATA RECALL... WHEN I BRING MY CAR IN THERE IS NO FIX TO THIS PROBLEM BUT THEY SAY THEY CAN PUT NE IN ANOTHER CAR BUT MY VALUE IS NOT ENOUGH TO ZERO OUT THE BAKANCE ON MY LOAN... WHY MUST I PAY FOR A CAR THAT IS SUPPOSED TO BE SCRAPPED AND A MANUFACTURED DEFECT? MY LOAN NEEDS TO BE ZEROED OUT AND I SHOULD BE ALLOWED TO START OVER. I HAVE SPENT EXTRA MONEY ON THAT CAR NEW TURES & BATTERY NOT EVEN A YEAR OLD. THE TAKATA CORPORATION NEEDS TO BE LIABLE FOR THE REMAINING DEBT NOT ME.... MY NOTE WILL GO FROM 420 OWNING TO 655 LEASED TO GET OUT THAT CAR AND I'M FORCED TO PURCHASE ANOTHER VOLKSWAGEN.... NOT FAIR AT ALL....

TAKATA RECALL I PURCHASED A CPO CVW CC SPORT FROM AND HAVE GONE TO MY LOCAL VW DEALER IN LA QUINTA CALIFORNIA SEVERAL TIMES ABOUT THIS RECALL. I AM AN 82-YEAR OLD WOMAN THAT FREQUENTLY TRAVELS BY CAR BETWEEN LA QUINTA AND LOS ANGELES. I AM VERY CONCERNED ABOUT BEING IN AN ACCIDENT ALONG THE MUCH TRAVELED HIGHWAYS BETWEEN THE TWO AREAS KNOWING MY AIR-BAG MIGHT NOT WORK. I HAVE HAD ARTERIAL STENTS IMPLANTED AND SHOULD I GET IN AN ACCIDENT THE DEBRIS FROM A FAULTY AIRBAG COULD KILL ME. I NEED THIS FIXED OR VW SHOULD OFFER TO REPLACE MY CAR. WHAT CAN I DO? CAN YOU HELP IN ANY WAY? THANK YOU, [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

TAKATA RECALL- I WAS SENT NOTIFICATION ABOUT THE RECALL VIA MAIL BACK IN FEBRUARY. I CALLED THE NUMBER LISTED TO GET MORE INFORMATION AS WELL AS SET UP A DATE TO TAKE CARE OF THE ISSUE. I WAS INFORMED THAT NO RESOLUTION HAD BEEN PUT INTO PLACE AT THAT TIME. MY VEHICLE IS STATIONARY AT THIS POINT, I WOULD LIKE TO DRIVE MY CAR AND NOT BE IN FEAR OF MY LIFE WITH SOMETHING THAT WOULD HOPEFULLY SAFE MY LIFE AND NOT TAKE MY LIFE. IF WOULD LIKE TO GIVE THE CAR BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP AND START OVER.IT IS NOT FAIR THAT I HAVE PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE HAVE NOT USED IT AS I PLEASE BECAUSE OF THE FEAR OF THE METAL FRAGMENTS IN THE AIRBAGS.I WOULD LIKE A RESOLUTION IMMEDIATELY SO THAT I CAN IN FULL CONFIDENCE DRIVE AND ENJOY MY VEHICLE. I PURCHASED IT IN 2013 WITH JUST 23,000 MILES AND AS OF THIS DATE IT HAS ONLY 60,000. THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR YOUR TIME. *TR

"TAKATA RECALL" WILL THE PROBLEM BE FIXED, I DO NOT WANT TO PURCHASE ANOTHER CAR AT THIS TIME, BUT IT LOOKS AS IF I WILL BE FORCED TO DO SO. I ALSO HAVE SOME ELECTRICAL ISSUES WITH THE CAR THE AIR PRESSURE IN THE TIRES AND THE LIGHTS KEEP GOING OUT TO REPLACE THEM EVERY 4 TO 6 MONTHS IS CRAZY.. THE DEALERSHIP HERE WANTS TO PUT ME IN A NEW CAR AND AS HE SAID EAT THE COST TO REPLACE, WHY DON'T THEY JUST PAY OFF THE CAR AND I CAN CUT MY LOSSES AND START OVER WITH A CAR OF MY CHOICE, I'M BEING FORCED BACK INTO A VW CAR?

WEDNESDAY ON MY HOME I'M DRIVING GOING ABOUT 35MPH GEARING DOWN AS I AM COMING UP TO A TOLE BOOTH WHEN I NOTICE THAT BRAKES LITERALLY HAVE SHUT OFF. I'M PRESSING THE PETAL REPEATEDLY AS HARD AND AS FAST AS I CAN TO GET THEM TO WORK BUT THEY ENDED FAILING AND I RAN INTO SOMEONE AND WENT THROUGH THE TOLE BOOTH AND ROLLED STOPPED 80 YARDS AFTER THE CRASH BECAUSE THE BRAKES STILL DID NOT WORK AFTER THE CRASH .WITH AIRBAG NOT DEPLOYING. IT WAS A VERY TRAUMATIC EXPERIENCE, I NO LONGER FEEL COMFORTABLE IN A VEHICLE I WAS SO HAPPY WITH MOMENTS BEFORE THIS HAPPENED.

THE CAR HAD ONLY BEEN DRIVEN FOR ABOUT 38,000 MILES AND SOMETHING LIKE THAT SHOULD NOT HAPPEN THAT EARLY. VOLKSWAGEN HAS NOT DONE ANYTHING ABOUT IT YET EITHER.

I PURCHASED MY 2012 VW CC IN SEPT. 2014. I BOUGHT THE VEHICLE WITH APPROXIMATELY 26000 MILES ON IT. SINCE PURCHASING THE VEHICLE, THE DRIVERS SEAT NO LONGER HEATS (QUOTED $980 FOR REPAIR) AND THE CLOCK SPRING HAS FAILED (QUOTED $450 FOR REPAIR). I CAN UNDERSTAND THE SEAT MAYBE HAVING AN ISSUE, BUT CONSIDERING I ONLY PURCHASED THE VEHICLE LESS THAN 6 MONTHS AGO VW HAS FAILED TO PROVIDE CUSTOMER SERVICE ON THIS ISSUE. I DONT UNDERSTAND HOW THE CLOCK SPRING IS NOT COVERED UNDER ANY WARRANTY. SINCE THE CLOCK SPRING HAS FAILED THE HORN, THE CONTROLS ON THE STEERING WHEEL, AND THE AIRBAG (TO MY UNDERSTANDING) DOES NOT FUNCTION.THERE IS ALSO AND ERROR MESSAGE FOR THE AIRBAG ALSO. THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE. MY VEHICLE WILL NOT PASS A STATE INSPECTION WITHOUT THE HORN FUNCTIONING. THIS IS NOT COSMETIC, AND I WANT VW TO EXPLAIN WHAT CAUSES THIS ITEM TO FAIL. ITS OBVIOUSLY A FAULTY PART OF THE VEHICLE THAT SIMPLY "GOES OUT". AT 30K MILES? THERE IS NO WAY FOR ME TO BREAK THIS PART, ALL I DID WAS TURN THE WHEEL TO THE LEFT WHEN IN A PARKING LOT AND THE PART FAILED. BASED ON MY RESEARCH THIS IS A COMMON AND COSTLY ISSUE FOR VW OWNERS. VW CUSTOMER CARE HAS NOT HELPED IN ANY WAY EITHER. THIS PART WILL FAIL SIMPLY BY USING THE BASIC FUNCTIONS OF THE VEHICLE.. THE TURNING OF THE STEERING WHEEL. I HAVE SPENT MORE MONEY REPAIRING THIS VEHICLE IN THE FIRST 6 MONTHS OF OWING IT THAT I EXPECTED TO HAVE FOR A WHILE. *TR

MY 2012 VOLKSWAGEN CC SPORT AIRBAG LIGHT CAME ON AFTER MY HUSBAND ADJUSTED THE DRIVER SEAT. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER AND THEY TOLD ME IT WAS THE CONTROL UNIT ( CLOCK SPRING) THE DEALERSHIP TOLD ME IF I DROVE IT AND GOT IN AN ACCIDENT THE AIRBAGS WOULD NOT DEPLOY. MY CAR IS JUST OVER 80 THOUSAND MILES. I CONTACTED VOLKSWAGEN CUSTOMER CARE VIA PHONE AND THEY WOULD NOT ACCEPT ANY RESPONSIBILITY AND JUST DISMISSED ME SAYING MY CAR HAS EXCESSIVE MILEAGE. I DISAGREE WITH THIS STATEMENT! I THINK THAT AIRBAGS THAT WON'T DEPLOY ON A CAR THAT IS A 2012 SHOULD REMAIN UNDER AN UNSPOKEN WARRANTY THAT PROTECTS MY FAMILY IN AN ACCIDENT! AFTER MY REVIEW OF ONLINE COMPLAINTS ON VOLKSWAGENS I SEE THAT I AM NOT THE ONLY ONE THAT HAS EXPERIENCED FAULTY AIR BAGS WITH A VOLKSWAGEN. I WILL NEVER BUY ANOTHER VOLKSWAGEN. I WAS VERY DISSATISFIED WITH THE CUSTOMER CARE SERVICE FROM VOLKSWAGEN OR SHOULD I SAY LACK THERE OF!!!! *TR
