general problems of the 2017 Volkswagen Passat

The contact owns a 2017 Volkswagen Passat. The contact stated that while his wife was driving at an undisclosed speed, the brake fluid warning light illuminated. The contact then stated that he became aware that brake fluid had leaked from an unknown location and that the brake fluid reservoir needed to be refilled. The contact stated that after driving for a few blocks, he had to refill the reservoir again. The contact referenced NHTSA campaign number: 17v075000 (service brakes, hydraulic) as a possible cause for the failure. The dealer was notified of the failure and an appointment was scheduled. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 10.

The following warning lights will randomly turn on & off while driving: air bag malfunction, abs brakes, esc, adaptive cruise control, front collision, tire pressure, power steering, blind spot detection, low key battery detected, and indicate they are not functional. It is a random and items will go back to work while normally driving. Key fob battery has been replaced multiple times. . .

The contact owns a 2017 Volkswagen Passat. The contact stated that while driving at 45 mph, his brake pedal had locked upon slight depression of the brake pedal with the brake pedal warning symbol on the instrument panel. The contact stated that the failure occurred for a brief moment as the vehicle came to a sudden stop. The contact stated that the vehicle resumed normal operation after the failure. The dealer nor the manufacturer had yet to be notified of the failure. The vehicle had yet to be repaired or diagnosed. The failure mileage was approximately 41,000.

Abs wheel speed sensors have failed on 3 different wheels in the 28. 200 miles the car has been operated since new. The left front at 19,241 mile. The left rear at 23,195 miles. Finally the right rear at 28, 200 miles. The cost at the dealer for replacement of an abs wheel speed sensor is around $350. I have had to pay for 2. The first was under warranty. When a speed sensor fails the abs warning light activates, the air bag warning light activates, the electronic stability control (esc) warning light activates and the steering is lacking in stability, the steering warning light activates, and finally the low tire pressure warning light activates. Upon replacement of the failed abs wheel speed sensors it was noted that the new sensors had an updated part number to a -b from a -a. I believe an unsafe condition exists with all of these systems inoperative after an abs wheel speed sensor failure and that vw should supply an updated, reliable sensor to all vw Passat owners.

My car shakes and brakes are really touchy due to the forward assist.

The automatic emergency braking (aeb) 'feature' in my 2017 vw Passat engaged this morning at aprox 10:30am mst, when accelerating onto an empty street, after turning westbound onto 8th avenue, from northbound colorado boulevard in denver, colorado. Based on the time of day, there's no way sunlight could be a factor as I was headed west and it was well before noon. The car passengers and I were all very startled by the dashboard lighting up and the brakes automatically engaging so suddenly and severely, with no road obstructions. This is the second occurrence of the aeb feature engaging for no apparent reason, I don't recall the first time specifics, other than the sun was behind the vehicle (it was after 4pm, and I was headed eastbound) I have zero idea what is happening with my vehicle and the aeb feature engaging without any visible road obstructions this and the previous time. Note, he brake pedal was not depressed/engaged during either occurrence. Also note, the aeb feature has engaged previously, accurately, apparently and reasonably functioning as designed.
