I had my battery changed at the vw dealership and a week later, my horn stopped working, my airbag light came on and my front assist no longer works. There’s also a clicking noise when I turn my steering wheel. It seems this clock coil issue has been a recall issue for vw for years, but when I search my VIN it list no recalls of this nature.
I have had to have my vehicle serviced over 5 times within the last three months. There is a recurring sensor temps, air bad error, radio not working properly, and front assist sensor light error. Everything I have had to take my vehicle to a service dealer, my wheel bearing need to be changed, my tire sensor needs to be changed, and my steering wheel is shaking. This is an urgent matter that needs to be taken care of.
All three sensors came on at the same time. After having them checked, no issue was found and codes were reset. A couple of days later, all three sensors showed up again. All of this occurred while vehicle was parked, then again in motion.
I have a 2017 vw Passat se. Front assist breaks or gets ready to break (shows the big car symbol on dashboard and beeps) in bad weather like while it is rainy and there are no cars around me. It also happened a few times during sunny weather. The car slammed the breaks for no reason. There was no car in front of me. I was going like 40-45 mph. I am super scared it will brake one day when I am going with 60+ on the highway and cause a crash. A safety system that is purpose to reduce the accident risk or impact of a crash should not behave dangerously and become a potatial accident cause.
I have a 2017 Passat when it's raining hard on the road and my speed is greater than 55 mph the passenger side windshield stops right in front of my vision vision (right in the middle of the driver's side) creates a white blocking effect so I don't have a clear road visibility. In a service I discussed this detail with the service advisor at the vw agency and he did not want to understand or was misunderstood, I told him that the design of these windshields had this defect. On another occasion when I was driving in an area where there was snow the front collision alarm started to alarm for no reason, there was no obstruction, apparently one of the front sensors fails when it gets wet, I took the car to the dealer and reported this to the service advisor, they did a review of the car they said that it had nothing damaged that everything is fine. But when it rains really hard, it does this.
