2012 VOLKSWAGEN EOS Air Bags Problems

In an accident I was struck by another vehicle that swerved into my lane at a very high rate of speed. His vehicle struck my car on the drivers side front quater panel just after the head light and continued past the drivers door. Air bags failed to deploy causing injuries to my head and body. In a separate accident, head on collision the airbags failed in the front and side causing bodily injuries. The failure of the air bags to deploy was supposed to fixed in Nov 2022 at the VW dealership with the clock spring recall . I did have that replaced so why did mine fail not once but twice after the clock spring was replaced?

VW RECALL69L2 AIRBAG -CLOCK SPRING FAILURE NHRSA CAMPAIN #15V483000

WHILE DRIVING A 2012 VW EOS, THE ENGINE STUMBLED AND UNLOADED TONS OF SMOKE OUT OF THE REAR OF THE CAR. THIS INCIDENT OCCURRED WHILE DRIVING THE CAR AT A HIGH RATE OF SPEED AND CAUSED A DANGEROUS SITUATION. THE DEALERSHIP REPLACED THE DEFECTIVE FUEL INJECTOR, WHICH HAPPENS TO BE UNDER WARRANTY FOR 120,000 MILES. THE ISSUE I HAVE IS THAT VW WILL NOT PROACTIVELY REPLACE THE DEFECTIVE FUEL INJECTORS, POTENTIALLY CAUSING 3 MORE DANGEROUS SITUATIONS. ADDITIONALLY, WHEN A FUEL INJECTOR FAILS THERE IS A HIGH PROBABILITY OF A CATALYTIC CONVERTER FAILURE DUE TO THE ENGINE MISFIRE. THIS HAPPENED TO ME AND VW WOULD NOT COVER THE FAILURE OF THE CATALYTIC CONVERTER - WHICH SEEMS UNFAIR, ESPECIALLY IN LIGHT OF VW'S ISSUE WITH ITS RECENT EMISSION SCANDAL. I HAD 2 INDEPENDENT MECHANICS VERIFY THE IMPACT A FAILED FUEL INJECTOR HAS, YET MY VOLKSWAGEN DEALERSHIP DID NOT AGREE MINE WAS CAUSED BY A FAILED INJECTOR.

TAKATA RECALL. RECALLED OCTOBER 2018 FOR REPLACING THE AIRBAG UNIT, RECALL COMPLETED. IN NOV. DEC. 2018 RECEIVED PHONE CALLS TELLING US THE WRONG PART HAD BEEN FITTED AND WE SHOULD RETURN TO THE DEALER JOSEPH VW 3813 MONTGOMERY ROAD, CINCINNATI OHIO 45212. RETURNED CAR TO DEALER WHO AFTER 2 1/2 HOURS COULD NOT GET THE WRONG PART OFF. DEALER TO CONTACT VW FOR INSTRUCTIONS. CAME BACK NEXT DAY TO COLLECT THE CAR. I FOUND THAT BACK IN OCTOBER A NEW AIR BAG ASSEMBLY HAD BEEN FITTED WHICH WAS THE CORRECT PART. THE WRONG PART WAS INFACT THAT ONLY A NEW IGNITER WAS TO BE FITTED. THE DEALER CLAIMED HE HAD KEPT THE OLD AIRBAG ASSEMBLY, REMOVED THE NEW ASSEMBLY FROM THE VEHICLE AND CHANGED THE IGNITER FROM THE NEW ASSEMBLY TO THE OLD ASSEMBLY AND REINSTALLED THE OLD ASSEMBLY. THE PROBLEM WAS THAT THE MECHANIC COULD NOT GET THE PART OFF WHICH WAS STUCK TO THE ASSEMBLY. TO REINSTALL THE NEW IGNITER IT NEEDED MODIFICATION WHICH THE MECHANIC UNDERTOOK AND REPLACED WITH AN UNCALIBRATED TORQUE WRENCH. I REFUSED TO SIGN THE ORIGINAL INVOICE AND ONLY SIGNED WHEN I CORRECTED THE WORDING. MY WIFE WHO DRIVES THE CAR IS CONCERNED THAT THIS MIS MATCH OF MODIFIED PARTS IS STILL LESS THAN 100% SAFE AND WILL NOT DRIVE OUR GRANDCHILDREN TO AND FROM SCHOOL. *TR THE DEALER STATED THAT THEY WOULD REPLACE THE AIRBAG AT NO CHARGE TO THE CONSUMER. *TR*JS

TAKATA RECALL - WE WENT TO VW DEALER OF VAN NUYS ON AUG 17, 2018 AND THEY STATED THAT PART HAVE BEEN SPECIAL ORDER. I HAVE FOLLOWED UP WITH PHONE CALLS TO DEALER ON DEC 26, 2018 AND THEY STATED TO CALL BACK IN 2 WEEK, SO WE FOLLOWED UP ON 1/3/19 AND STILL ON NATIONAL BACK ORDER WITH NO ESTIMATE DATE OF ARRIVAL.

AS I WAS BACKING OUT OF A PARKING SPOT ON 12/29/17, NOT QUITE 3 MONTHS AFTER I BOUGHT THE CAR, THE CLOCK SPRING FAILED, WHICH MEANT NO AIRBAGS. SINCE I KNEW THIS WAS PREVIOUSLY AN ISSUE, I CONTACTED VW DIRECTLY SINCE THE RECALL WAS NOT COMING UP AT THE DEALERSHIP. THEY TOLD ME THAT THE PART HAD BEEN PREVIOUSLY FIXED IN 2016 UNDER THE RECALL, AND EVEN THOUGH THE PART FAILED AGAIN IN LESS THAN 2 YEARS, IT WASN'T COVERED UNDER WARRANTY.

I TOOK MY 2012 VW EOS TO THEM FOR A CLOCK SPRING FAILURE WHICH IS UNDER A RECALL. THEY TOLD ME THAT IT DID NOT FALL UNDER THE RECALL BECAUSE THEY PUT A DUST COVER OVER THE CLOCK SPRING IN 2015. I TOLD THE THAT THERE IS NO WAY THE MECHANIC WHO DID THE WORK COULD GUARANTEE THAT NO DEBRIS GOT INTO THE CLOCK SPRING DURING THE 3 YEARS PRIOR TO THE DUST COVER BEING INSTALLED. I ALSO TOLD THEM THAT THE FEDS OPENED ANOTHER INVESTIGATION IN OCT 2017 FOR VW NOT DOING ENOUGH TO FIX THE PROBLEM WITH THE POORLY DESIGNED PART IN 2015. I TOLD THE MANAGER AT THE DEALERSHIP ABOUT THIS AND HE SAID THERE WAS NOTHING HE COULD DO. HE SAID THAT WHEN THE DUST COVER WAS PUT ON THEY NEVER GOT CLOSE TO THE CLOCK SPRING. I TOLD HIM THAT THEY DIDN'T HAVE TO GET CLOSE TO THE CLOCK SPRING BECAUSE DEBRIS HAD ALREADY GOTTEN INTO THE CLOCK SPRING DURING THE 3 YEARS PRIOR TO IT BEING INSTALLED WHICH COMPROMISED THE CLOCK SPRING LEADING TO THE PREMATURE FAILURE OF THE CLOCK SPRING. I DON'T KNOW IF HE UNDERSTOOD WHAT I WAS SAYING OR WAS JUST BLOWING ME OFF.

THE VW SAFETY RECALL 15V483 - SAFETY RECALL 69L2 ON THE CLOCK SPRING- VW DID THEIR "FIX" WHEN I TOOK IT IN 2016, HOWEVER THE STEERING WHEEL CLOCK SPRING WENT BAD (LOSS OF STEERING CONTROL WHEN BACKING UP- ALSO CONTROLS STEERING WHEEL CONTROLS SUCH AS CRUISE CONTROL) STILL- WHEN I CONTACTED VW SERVICE THEY RAN MY VIN AND STATED THE PROBLEM WAS TAKEN CARE OF UNDER THE 2016 RECALL AND IT WOULD ONLY BE FIXED FOR COST. - OBVIOUSLY IT DID NOT TAKE CARE OF IT. I TOOK IT INTO A PRIVATE VENDOR OF GERMAN CARS WHO REPLACED THE CLOCK SPRING - TOTAL COST $543.98 I FEEL THAT VW NEEDS TO EXPAND THIS RECALL AS THEY DIDN'T DO ENOUGH

APRIL 1016 RECEIVED A RACALL NOTICE REGARDING 69M9 TAKATA SDI DRIVER FRONTAL AIRBAG. CALLED MANY TIMES, NO PARTS. CALLED TODAY, ONE YER LATER, NO PARTS. HAS VOLKSWAGEN DEFAULTED ON THEIR PROMISE TO REPLACE THIS FAULTY PART. I KNOW THEY HAVE CHALLENGED THE RECALL, BUT I WAS UNDER THE IMPRESSION THAT THEY WOULD COMPLY. VW REFUSED TO SUPPLY A REPLACEMENT CAR. KNOW THAT IN TESTS THIS PARTICULAR AIR BAG FAILED.

TAKATA RECALL. AFTER BEING INFORMED MY VEHICLE IS SUBJECT TO THE TAKATA RECALL, THE DEALERSHIP HAS REFUSED TO RECTIFY THE SITUATION TIME AND TIME AGAIN. I FEAR EVERYDAY FOR MY LIFE BECAUSE OF THIS SITUATION AND THE DEALERSHIP CONTINUES TO DENY RESPONSIBILITY. PLEASE HELP! I WILL NOT WAIT FOR A CATASTROPHE TO HAPPEN FOR THEM TO DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT. MY LIFE IS DEFINITELY IN THEIR HANDS AND MY SAFETY IS THEIR RESPONSIBILITY.

I CALLED FINDLAY VW IN HENDERSON NV TO MAKE APPT TO HAVE AIRBAG REPLACED. THEY SAID VW DOES NOT "HAVE A REMEDY" AND THEY HAVE NO IDEA WHEN THE AIR BAG CAN BE REPLACED.
