• March 26, 2025 – backup camera & sensor failure: while reversing my Tiguan in a parking lot on a rainy day, both the rearview camera and parking sensors failed simultaneously. The screen did not display the rear view, and the sensors did not activate. Although I checked my mirrors, the low-lying wall on the left was not visible, resulting in damage to the left side of the vehicle. • July 9, 2025 – dealership inspection: the vehicle was inspected at Volkswagen bayside service, where I was told no issues were found and that the camera and sensors were functioning properly. This assessment was conducted in controlled, non-real-world conditions, which I do not believe accurately replicate the environment in which the failure occurred. • lack of support from vw customer care: reasons Volkswagen should cover the repair costs • safety feature failure: the backup camera and parking sensors are critical safety systems required under fmvss no. 111. These features are designed to work together as part of Volkswagen’s integrated park assist/park distance control system. • direct causation: • manufacturer liability / recall acknowledgment: in April 2025, I received a notification from Volkswagen customer protection regarding “compliance recall 91ny – camera control unit. ” warranty and recall coverage: I purchased the vehicle on July 26, 2023, and it remains under the 4-year/50,000-mile new vehicle limited warranty.
