Vehicle will not start. Message indicates "steering wheel column lock". This happens intermittently. This is a known problem with other vw models, but dealership won't cover it, and general manager is acting as if he doesn't know this issue exists with other models.
I own a 2013 vc Cc with about 76,000 miles on it. Car is an excellent condition and is still pretty new when suddenly my car began to shut off while driving. There were no progression of problems. The issue occurred suddenly. While driving on the road or while stationary at a red light, all the sudden while attempting to accelerate, the car would begin jerking and the engine would just rev up as if the car was in neutral position until eventually shutting off and parking and engine indicator lights would turn on. If I was stopped at a light in drive position, the parking light would suddenly turn on and I would have no mobility of the vehicle. The car would still be on, but would not move. I would have to position it in park, restart the vehicle and it would jump start before the same problem occurred again and again and again. After taking it to the dealer, I was informed that I would have to replace the mechatronic unit, which is basically the computer that controls the transmission. Replacement costs were $1800. They were generally unsure of why a new vehicle would have these issues, mentioning it may have been water damage from street flooding or moisture getting into the unit. Either way I feel in a brand new car, these issues should not be occurring and are extremely dangerous if I had been driving on a highway and then the vehicle suddenly shuts off.
While driving at about 45 mph the engine light came on with the warning to take car to the dealer for service immediately. I did go, immediately, and while the service manager could not tell me exactly why, I was charged $600 to replace pistons. About two months later while driving slowly in a parking lot, I started to turn onto the driveway and the car simply stopped, went dark, and the steering became impossible. After trying several times and then sitting for about 5 minutes the car started again. It was a leased car that I intended to buy for my daughter. I turned the car back in and did not buy it.
At about 43k miles I was driving on a multi lane highway when the car started violently trembling/jerking then sputtered and turned off. I was able to turn it back on and get onto a side median. The car continued to jerk I drove to dealership immediately a few miles away. By the time I got there it was no longer jerking and only random misfires in the engine where found on diagnostic testing. The car since before that time and still has a low level but noticeable tremble when it is idle. I have been to the dealership several times to have it addressed but they claim to not be able to reproduce the problem.
Excessive high idle causing car hard to brake. I need to constantly apply high brake pressure to keep the car stopped. Idle stays above 900 rpm all the time.
I bought a new vw Cc that is a 2. 0t and has a manual transmission. Before buying and just test driving the car, the car drove just fine. The issue is that after the car warms up for a while, the rpms will hang for a few seconds after you let off the gas. This causes many safety issues and I have now found out that all vw cars made in 2013 with the 2. 0t engine have this issue. I almost crashed the car due to this issue a couple weeks ago when in slow stop and go traffic. Not only is the rev hang is wearing out clutches prematurely and makes these cars very difficult to drive, it is also a safety concern since the engine keeps the throttle open for a few seconds after we let off of the gas. The car just drives on its own like it has cruise control on for a few seconds!!! if you are driving the car in the snow and the wheels are spinning and losing traction, they will continue to spin for an extended period of time after you let go of the gas which can cause you to crash. Google "vw rev hang" my car has been back to the dealer a few times for this and they claim that no issue was found. I then test drove other 2013 vw cars with this engine and found that all of the cars I drove have the rpm hang issue. I have owned 7 cars with manual transmissions in the past and I have never seen any other car do this. I still have my 2006 vw 2. 0t car with a manual transmission and that car drives just fine. Please look in to this issue and understand that it is a safety concern that affects all 2013 vw cars with 2. 0t engines that are sold in the us with manual transmissions. People on the vw forms believe that this was put into the cars to help with passing new us emissions. I understand the importance of better emissions. However, I do not think that drivability, reliability, and safety should be sacrificed in order to get better emissions.
