2012 vw jetta wagon that was purchased new and always housed in a garage until February 2020. Water leaked into car interior carpet and spare tire well. Never received any notification of recall due to sunroof leaking. Repair was $900 out of my pocket.
I noticed my car has been cutting out and not having power when driving down a freeway. Ill put the pedal down it didnt move. I noticed my stereo started kind of flashing as well. I figured maybe it was electrical so I started looking around and I opened up my trunk and it was 4 inches of water where my spare tire is. Then I started looking around where my panoramic sunroof is and there's a huge spots of water that's wet. They did not disclose this to me when I purchase the car and I asked them if there was any problems of leaking. I think it's messing up my electrical system and my power. I felt very unsafe when I wasn't able to accelerate in the middle of traffic.
The sunroof leaks on the passenger's side when it rains, causing the car to have flooding on the passenger's side front seat and back.
My 2012 jetta sportswagen tdi is having water freezing in the intercooler causing it to not start or even smoke when started. I had a 14 without this issue my dad has am 04 passat tdi no issue. I did research and on many websites it mentions 10-13 having this issue. The dealership told me there's an after marker part that fixes the freezing issue. This part will cost over 700 dollars. Why was this not recalled when it's happening to many years and the dealership has seen it multiple times.
