2 Wiring problem of the 2013 Volkswagen CC

Failure Date: 10/06/2017

My car has 34,495 miles. I got a backup light out msg on the dash, tried to change the bulb but would not stay in bracket. Then I got a parking light out msg. Now my truck opens when I start the car and will not lock unless the engine is off. Read issues on wiring harness. Called the dealer and got no sense of knowledge on the issue. Service department transferred me to parts. I was told the harness is $121 and must be ordered. I informed them I wanted the dealer to make repair so parts transferred me back to service where I got voice mail. No reply received from message left with service. This must be a design flaw, it should be simple to wrap the wires in a plastic shield.

3 Wiring problem of the 2009 Volkswagen CC

Failure Date: 10/01/2017

I received information dated October 2017 from Volkswagen of America, inc. 3800 hamlin road auburn hills, mi 48326 with a recall notice for my vehicle NHTSA: 17v509 stating �under specific operating conditions, an interruption in the electrical power supply to the fuel pump control module can result in fuel pump failure and lead to a loss of vehicle motive power while driving (vehicle stall). This condition can also cause the fuel pump to run continuously, resulting in a drained vehicle battery and/or a no-start condition. � this means an engine can stall while driving and can increase the risk of a vehicle crash. This is very alarming to me, and I am concerned about my safety along with my infant son who is a passenger in my car daily. I have called 2 local vw dealerships (dorschel & ide Volkswagen) in rochester, NY and have been notified multiple times that there is �no fix� at the moment. I owe over $10,000 on this vehicle currently and have limited income so I have no choice but to keep this vehicle and drive it. I have had multiple issues with this car and several recalls. I have put over $2,200 in repairs on this car in the last 4 months for defective sensors and wiring. This new recall can directly cause a deadly accident and I am at a lost for words!.

4 Wiring problem of the 2013 Volkswagen CC

Failure Date: 12/17/2012

The vehicle began showing signs of malfunction in August of 2012 (vehicle was leased the end of June) when it would take several attempts to start the vehicle and once started the vehicle would occasional cut off or run really rough for about 30 minutes. The engine light stayed illuminated for 2 days. I took the car to the dealer to have it serviced and after 2 days they were unable to replicate the problem. Returned vehicle to me with no resolution. Car ran fine for 4 months then on December 17th the same issues began to occur but more severe this time. I was traveling on a rural highway at 45 mph when the whole car shut off leaving no power, braking or steering capabilities. Luckily there was no one right behind me and I was able to coast the car to the side of the road. I put the car in park and ejected the key. Restarted the vehicle and limped the car back to my driveway as it would not go over 30 mph with the pedal pushed to the floor. The vehicle remained in service for 2 days and the dealership diagnosed it as a fuel module issue, replaced the module and returned the car. On Saturday December 22nd the same issues occurred again. The car was taken back to the dealership for a 3rd time and remained there for 22 days as the mechanics could not replicate the issue again. Finally the problem was diagnosed as a crack in the wiring harness and vibration was causing the wire to touch the engine and stall out. The crack was fixed with tape and the wire routed away from the engine. I do not feel comfortable driving the car to and from work as I travel on very suburban roads to get there. Volkswagen is not willing to take the car back as they feel the issue has been resolved. A vehicle that completely shuts off at high speeds is a severe concern.
