9 Vehicle Speed Control problem of the 2010 Volkswagen CC

Failure Date: 10/02/2017

The engine light is on in my vehicle and I found out there is an unexpected mechanical gear disengagement (trouble code p2711). The dealership quoted $2,400 suggesting me to replace clutch packs, after I spent $140 simply for diagnosis. I saw that vw used to provide a safety recall and extended warranty for dsg transmission for certain models in 2007 to 2010. I also found online that there are many reported dsg-related failures. I, just as many vw owners do, have experienced delays at shift points, causing erratic shifting, jerking, long stall pauses, clutch slipping, surging in forward and reverse, etc. While the car is either accelerating, passing or cruising. However, my 2010 vw Cc (55k mileage) is not under this extended warranty. I think it's very ridiculous, since I've taken good care of my vehicle, but have already experienced 3 safety recall (including takata recall and fuel pump recall), and this time they refuse to reimburse my costs incurred by their commonly-known dangerous transmission failure. I'm already hugely influenced by this model's safety recalls, and don't want to pay $2400 for their design defects. Even if I repair it at my own expense, it's hard to say such a bad transmission will not cause other danger or trouble in the future. If this is the same dsg transmission that's reported to be troublesome, their warranty/recall should be fairly provided to all influenced vehicles. Thank you for your time!.

12 Vehicle Speed Control problem of the 2010 Volkswagen CC

Failure Date: 01/01/2017

When either slowing down or coming to a stop my car starts jerking , I attempt to accelerate and I cannot , my car seems to going into a neutral state. The drive (d) gear flashes so I am stuck. I have to put my car into park (p) turn off my car in the middle of traffic then turn it back on to drive. Also, if I am in the drive (d) gear and I need to go in reverse (r) I have to put into park (p) then turn it off and then move into the reverse (r) gear. This started happening intermittently, I took it to vw and they didn't see anything wrong with it. I took it to the local o'reillys and they saw a p2711 code, I took it to a local transmission repair and they told me they get a lot of these complaints and suggested I report it to you. I I also called the vw dealership in tallahassee FL where I purchased my car they told me it could cost anywhere from $5000 to $1100 to fix. In my research I saw the same thing happened in australia where a lady died because the gear shifted from drive into neutral while she was driving. I am afraid for my safety and my daughters who ride with me. Vw needs to recall the dsg transmission and implement a fix.

13 Vehicle Speed Control problem of the 2011 Volkswagen CC

Failure Date: 09/01/2015

While driving my vehicle on the highway, the computer flashed a warning that there is a parking break error and the vehicle proceeded to stop. When pressing the gas pedal the car would not move. Following the repeated ( over 6 times) shutting down and restarting of the car the parking error warning and the engine light appeared and vehicle once again proceeded to stop and no forward motion took place when gas pedal was pressed. Vehicle shut down on two major highways at high traffic/ rush hour times. Following these incidents the vehicle was repaired by sunrise Volkswagen dealership. They preformed a diagnostic and replaced the fuel pump injection system. The vehicle was returned to me and a little over a month later (October 22nd) the same problem reoccurred once again shutting down multiple times on a major highway. The vehicle had to be towed back to the dealer where they are currently working on another diagnostic. It should be noted that in addition to this problem, prior malfunction has resulted in replacement of the entire engine in this vehicle. I've also experienced several coolant system issues for which I have had to return to the dealership repeatedly. I am extremely concerned regarding the safety of this vehicle due to the loss of acceleration while in motion at highway speeds. Each time I'm told the problem has been resolved, I am exposed to possible highway fatality as I resume driving. My suggestion that the vehicle be replaced was rejected and each attempt at repair has proven to be unsuccessful in resolving the problems.

Failure Date: 06/28/2014

This 2010 Volkswagen Cc was purchased as a cpo in 2012 with 33k miles on it. Second owner. With no warning, clutch failed completely with only 43k miles, and gears would not engage, I made a sudden sharp left turn to the road side, lost control of the car, depressed brake hard to forcefully stop the car with third gear engaged. An online search shows that many other vw Cc and golf (2010, 2012 models) have had clutch failures with approximately the same mileage. Also, there is a vw technical service bulletin (vw 2028783) which sh0ws there is a clutch assembly issue with the car and directs dealers to replace clutch kit for those defect models. I contacted vw customer care as this is a safety issue, and as I in no way abused the clutch. Also, informed them that this Cc is still within the 2yr/24k mile cpo warranty. Vw customer opened a case, however, the case manager claimed that the clutch is not included in the powertrain warranty and that vw would not authorize repair, even though they are aware of the fact that they updated the parts and have distributed the TSB due to premature failure.

Failure Date: 12/30/2012

Stepping on the accelerator does not always product motion.

The recall parts are still not available according to vw of orland park IL.

20 Vehicle Speed Control problem of the 2012 Volkswagen CC

Failure Date: 11/06/2012

At 8:40 am cst on 11/6/2012. While commuting to work at 55 mph road in the middle of freeway. I lost functionality on the gas pedal. The vehicle would not accelerate when engaging the gas pedal. Gas pedal was rendering non-functional and in-effective. There was heavy soot/smoke from the exhaust primarily almost like fire and some smoke from under the hood, this is a new under warranty vw Cc 2012 4 door sedan. Driving on the left lane with a semi behind me when this occurred. It created a very unsafe near miss incident. I am fortunate that a collision did not happen when I lost power to the wheels. I pulled off to an exit and when I floored the gas pedal, there was intermittent power stalling the vehicle to less than 5 mph. However, there was heavy soot/smoke from the exhaust primarily almost like fire and some smoke from under the hood, with parking lights on I drove 2 minutes and pulled to a parking lot. My vehicle was towed to a nearest vw dealership upon talking with vw road side assistance. They appear to be inconsiderate to the magnitude of the situation I dealt with and the impact and severity of the technical failure. I don't know if this systemic in vw Cc. This technical failure can easily cause accidents. My near miss is a testament to it.
