1 Rear Suspension Springs problem of the 2011 Volkswagen Jetta Sportwagen

Failure Date: 04/15/2020

Both rear springs broke without warning (at separate times). This clearly seems to be a manufacturing defect, as I have since discovered that it's a very common occurrence.

2 Rear Suspension Springs problem of the 2012 Volkswagen Jetta Sportwagen

Failure Date: 04/07/2019

About a year ago both rear springs were broke and the dealership replaced them. About a month ago both front springs were broke and the dealership replaced them. All the replacements were done at my cost. I now have a rear right spring that has broke and will now have to have it replaced. In my over 50 years of driving different model cars and truck, I have never had spring failures such as this. I haven't hit any major pot holes that would cause this type of damage. This must be defective springs. The last time I was at the dealership having the front springs replaced they said this is common. It should not be common.
