5 Power Train problem

Failure Date: 11/27/2018

My 2012 vw Cc is in the shop as I write this as it has been identified with a defective timing chain/tensioner. It was only a matter of time before my engine had catastrophic failure like the hundreds of others vw has acknowledged. My model is listed on the related vw settlement site as part of the affected models but yet my VIN has been apparently left out of the settlement so I have to pay on my own. No one can explain to me why my car is being excluded when it has the problem parts vw has conceded to. I think vw deliberately tampered with the numbers of the vehicles affected to cut down on settlement costs.

6 Power Train problem

Failure Date: 02/04/2018

Vehicle purchased with 112,000 miles. At 119,000 the car wouldn't start randomly after driving it all day. Vehicle was parked in my driveway and I was leaving to run an errand and it wouldn't start. There was no indication of any issue. No loud or uncommon noises, no dash lights signaling a problem - nothing! two days later I had it towed it to a local mechanic and he found a problem with timing chain and head gasket. We are still in the process of having it fully diagnosed, and a price estimate for repairs. I have done a lot of research which indicates this is a very common problem in Volkswagen models like mine. Volkswagen is also aware of the problem and refuses to do anything further about it.

7 Power Train problem

Failure Date: 01/29/2018

My car was dead while I was driving to a nearby usps. Later, I was told that the car's fuel pump was broken, which caused engine to stop running. That is something vw should have fixed long time ago because vw had it recalled for more than half year. They have so much time to make thing right, but they just chose to ignore it. I can't imagine if it happened in a interstate. Please urge them to fix the problem immediately. There are so many lives could be in danger. Now, I need to pay more than 1600 bucks to get it fixed. That is insane.

8 Power Train problem

Failure Date: 04/06/2012

Since I first purchased my vw Cc 2012, I have noticed when coming to a complete stop, the car still moves foward alittle bit. Also upon making a 3 point turn around upon putting the shaft in reverse the car still moves forward. The other complaint is upon going through a fast food drive thru, and setting the autohold the cars engine made a loud rev (revolution) noise. I actually thought my car would smash into the car in front of me. I took my car in today for the 10,000 mile free maintenance, they checked out my concerns and sadly said there was nothing wrong with the car.
