Purchased this vehicle used. I have had it for two years now. Problems encountered: burning smell, driver side flood light blew out or came off; shaking momentarily while driving, driver side mirror flew off while making a left turn; noticed when I had an oil change last of January or first part of February the vehicle was using quite a bit of oil. I put about five or more quarts in by may. The latter part of may it used two quarts in two weeks. Went shopping Saturday before mother's day, parked the car at food lion when I came back out, I tried to start the car and it stalled. When it did start, the vehicle was shaking. I took the car home, checked the oil along with my brother and it needed more oil. I put two more quarts in. On Monday I was at the dealership at 6:40 a. M. (woke them up). After checking the car, their finding was it needed a fuel pump and a sensor; later they replaced two crank sensors and said the car is still shaking; then after approximately a week and a half, I called the service manager and he informed me the car needs a engine. Friday, may 22, I went by the dealership and picked up some things out of the automobile and was told the warranty company finally gave in and the motor will be in, in three days. Well, after reading the horror stories about the 2009 Passat on this website. I plan to trade this vehicle without delay, as soon as they release it to me. I am sadden, because I really loved this vehicle. I have been reluctant to drive this car out of town, and now I am afraid to drive it to work which is 30 mile a day plus or at all. I do not feel safe in it, and I pay to much to be having all these problems. Who knows what will be next.

The vehicles motor began making an irregular noise ( sounded like an airplane engine) between 2-3rpms and there was serious vibration through the entire vehicle. The vehicle chugged along at low speeds and the steering was difficult and not that responsive. There was serious vibration through the vehicle was left at the service center on Friday as it was late in the day. Upon returning on Monday morning, the technician informed me that the motor mount bolts (two) were missing and the threads for each was completely stripped. The motor was rocking back and forth creating this dreadful noise. The threads were restored using tap and dye set and new bolts were installed. I was informed that sometimes the bolts snap and this is a manufacturers defect. I was told there were other signs of damage and I kind of feel something will be found once my warranty is up as a result of this mishaps.
