On March 27, 2019, during a state safety inspection, the right rear coil spring was shown to be fractured. It was repaired by Nissan of somersworth, nh on June 29, during a rear brake repair, the left coil spring was found to be fractured. Repair not yet done. I think it is more than a coincidence that both fracture within a 3 month period. They were poorly manufactured. Currently there is a recall for other vw modes having faulty rear coil springs. I think this model and year requires a recall as well.

Winter of 2019, my rear coil spring broke. My car was parked in my driveway and turned off. I was loading my backseat with my work supplies when the break occurred.

Electronic emergency brake fault; was driving on January 18,2014. My daughter was driving about 35 mph when this emergency brake light started flashing yellow. Also there was a red brake light that was flashing and beeping three times. She got the car under control mind you she is only 17 and she just bought this car from campus auto here in fort Dodge, IA on the 10th and he told her nothing was wrong with the car. Everything has went wrong with this car that can go wrong. She pulled over and read in her manual that with the beeping 3 times and the red light indicator said that she was suppose to get it to a trusted mechanic right away. So she did the Smart thing and called me to have the car taken to a mechanic. But what if she would have been on the highway and this would have happened. She would have lost control of this car on a highway. Please look into these Passat. There is something seriously wrong with them. Wheel bearings are bad in the rear. Fuel pump went bad. Coils burn. These are all dangerous things. Please help.
