Wiper problems of the 2022 Volkswagen Tiguan

The wipers of this car go on and off automatically and you are not able to turn off the feature. They go on without rain or any debris on the windshield. I already took it to a Volkswagen dealer and they accepted the error and replaced the steering wheel, saying this was the cause. With the new steering wheel, the problem is still going on and they don’t offer any solutions because they don’t understand what is happening to the car. This is very distracting and I’ve been close to crashing due to the wipers going on and off consistently. I researched on the internet and there are several vw cars with this issue and no solutions found.

The vehicle's sunroof glass failed catastrophically and shattered spontaneously without any external impact or contributing factor. The glass was not safety glass and shattered into sharp shards, dispersing throughout the vehicle interior, including the rear seating area. This failure posed a serious safety risk, as glass shards caused minor injuries to my skin, and could have resulted in significant injury had a child or pet been seated in the back. The incident has not been reproduced; however, the damage was confirmed and repaired by the authorized dealership, which replaced the sunroof glass, frame, and sunshade due to extensive damage. The vehicle was inspected by the dealership, and a comprehensive insurance claim was filed. No warning lamps, messages, or symptoms were present prior to the failure, and the event occurred without warning.

Went to work, drove home, went to take my daughter to her friends and noticed my windshield on the passenger side was cracked big time. Just from sitting in my driveway.

Travel assist goes on and off at random times . The wipers turn on and off by themselves. Also the front collision warning light comes on randomly. . What should I be doing with this vehicle… I’ve read many reviews that other people have the same issues.

Windshield spontaneously cracked. No previous chip or crack. Temperature was about 72. Car was not being driven.

The vehicle’s infotainment system automatically displays the rear view backup camera, as expected, when placed in reverse. However, this can be overridden by selecting the x in the upper right of the screen or by selecting another function such as the app button. The only way to get the backup camera to display again is to put the car in a different gear/park and then back into reverse. Not being able to see in reverse puts anyone behind my vehicle at risk. There should not be a way to defeat the camera.

Windshield provided cracks super easily.

1-most importantly, while driving my vehicle on 4 separate occasions I am alerted of possible impact or close vehicle and the car hard brakes by itself on 2 of theses malfunctions I was almost rear ended. 2- I was sitting in my vehicle on a phone call in my buildings garage and my windshield just cracked out of nowhere. Nothing hit my vehicle and a crack just started rising from the bottom of the left drivers side straight across the center of my windshield . 3- on several occasions while driving my radio/gps display just blacked out and I had to reset it in order to get it back on. 4- my front suspension sounds like is is going to fall out of the car when I hit the smallest of bumps, it almost sounds like it was installed and never tightened up. 5- when it rains or snows the sensors on the vehicle start bugging out and alerting me of multiple hazards when in fact there is nothing near me. This issue may be related to the earlier mentioned statement #1 this could be a scary thing for some people.

Windshield cracked while stationary no impact. Glass is unavailable to replace due to demand as dealer states this model is having multiple failures of windshield.

Windshield cracked from the driver side a pillar towards rear view mirror. The crack was about 18” in length and happened while parked at work. Windshield was facing the sun in the afternoon. The crack did cause a safety concern and was breaking federal and state dot laws.

The windshield on my 2022 Tiguan randomly cracked one day with no points of impact along the crackit's about three and a half feet long it takes up about 85% of the windshield. It really affects my visibility as it makes the lines on the road appear in two different places on either side of the crack. After contacting insurance and getting an appointment to get the glass replaced I was told by several windshield repair shops including safelite and the vw dealership that the part is on national back order indefinitely and they cannot provide a replacement part at this time. I am not the only one this has happened to I will provide links to other accounts of the same thing happening on the same car. Https://globalnews. . Read more...

On 07/01/2022 while driving on a highway a rock hit my windshield at one inch from passenger side middle of the windshield which resulted in a star like chip plus a long crack that kept getting longer by the day. Currently that crack is three quarters of the windshield, I tried to fix it by a repair kit without success, took it to safelight auto glass they said it can't be repaired and needed a new windshield which only a dealer can carry since it's the car is a new design for 2022. I called my local dealer, findley henderson Volkswagen, I was informed it will take at least 8 weeks for them to get one with a cost of $1,200. It's unacceptable to drive around with a cracked windshield for more than two months due to lack of this safety part.
