Despite a 2015 recall, 2016 Golfs are still being affected by faulty clock spring setups and a lack of some type of cover that is preventing debris from getting inside and breaking them. While driving the car, the airbag warning light went on. I then noticed that none of the control features on the steering wheel worked. . No cruise control, not horn, no system data, etc. Upon further investigation I discovered that the clock spring was the reason for the problem and that this has been an ongoing problem that vw has known about since 2011. Only after an investigation was vw forced into doing a recall in 2015. The problem obviously still exists since there are a number of continued complaints still being filed.

The airbag control module has failed and needs to be replaced. Without it, there is no guarantee that the airbags will function properly, if at all, in the event of an accident. Volkswagen refuses to even help with the over $1,000. 00 repair cost. (the airbag warning light came on, so the vehicle was taken in for diagnostics. ).

Air bag warning light is on continuously indicating a malfunction.

Second time the front driver's side air bag has malfunctioned -- warning light comes on that airbag is not properly functioning. November 2005 and September 2006. Dealer would not repair then as now. Vw ordered repairs and replaced bag and harness in November 2005. All airbags will not function if a problem with harness. This will be the second harness, igniter, etc to be installed. Parts will be available upon repair this time ( a quite costly venture). Vw will not admit a serious problem, but non-vw repair centers know of this problem.

My 2001 vw Golf repeatedly has warning lights popping up in error. This week my airbag warning light came on and stayed on, even though this car has never been in an accident and the airbags have never needed to be deployed. Researching this issue shows that this is a common problem and annoyance among vw users. The only remedy offered by two dealerships I went to is to replace the airbags at a cost of more than $750/$900 per (there are 4 of them). The replacement airbags only have a 6,000 mile warranty, which means I could conceivably have to pay $3000 every 5-6 months to have new airbags installed, even though there's nothing wrong with them and the real problem is that the warning light keeps going off in error. Help!.

Drivers seat air bag warning light is on without cause. Charge to repair this is unreasonable $700. 00 and unjustified. This is a manufacturing defect, and the owner cannot afford to repair it. This means now that this relatively new vehicle will be operated with a potential serious defect. Is this a common problem, perhaps a trend?.
