Warning problems of the 2022 Volkswagen Tiguan

Constantly beeps travel assist unavailable, steering wheel has already been replaced but it started again, no way to turn off the constant beeping while you are driving.

I was informed from the Volkswagen dealership of where I purchased the vehicle that there are malfunctions with the lane assist system and other driver assistance functions caused by a fault in the steering wheel. However, I was also told that Volkswagen no longer manufactures or provides a replacement steering wheel for my vehicle. This leaves me without a viable solution to restore the safety systems that are integral to the vehicle’s operation.

Vehicle purchased 10. 31. 2023 at Volkswagen jackson (ritchey automotive) in jackson, mississippi. During the course of normal vehicle operation, multiple travel assist system failures and alerts as documented within Volkswagen technical service bulletin 2070207/1 occur. Three repair attempts have previously been performed by Volkswagen jackson (ritchey automotive) in jackson, mississippi as documented by invoices dated 20 Feb 2024, 27 Feb 2024, and 12 Mar 2024. These efforts appear to conform with the previously cited technical service bulletin 2070207/1 and confirm the defect(s) and/or nonconformity as per the bulletin's summary of "48?23? 01-travel assist currently not available. " the frequency and persistence of visual and auditory safety alerts pose significant hazards to the safety of the driver and vehicle occupants as an unnecessary distraction and nuisance in addition to the direct hazards of antecedent electrical malfunction and driver assistance system defects/nonconformity/failure. This matter has been discussed with dealership staff, yielding no productive resolution, and further assistance is being pursued through Volkswagen customer care. All rights to resolution through alternative means are documented as expressly reserved.

Vehicle beeps non stop that the vehicle assist feature is unavailable. Multiple lights on the dash. Vehicle has been to the dealer 5 times to correct this issue and it remains not working.

"travel assist not available" alert ding repeatedly goes off while driving and feels like wheel fights left turns. Easily every 10-30 seconds. This is a wide spread issue with 2022 Tiguans.

My vehicle has been to the dealer multiple times for a well-known and common error: travel assist unavailable. My dealer is saying that the steering wheel needs to be replaced, but the parts are 200+ on back order with no update on when they will come in. This is a major design flaw with this vehicle.
