| Rearview System Braking problems |
This car has several issues and I could only select a few. Electrical: the infotainment system disconnects from wireless car play at random when you drive the vehicle. It then returns a wifi error on screen and you cannot use car play any longer on both android and ios. Additionally, the electronic system will reboot when the car is in use. In my case, it always happens on the freeway when driving 75 mph. The entire car dash is electronic, no buttons. So when this happens, you lose all safety features, have no idea what speed your driving, can't use the radio, navigation, air conditioning, etc. Most importantly, this is a deadly error wv knew about but sold the car anyways. The dealer and wv north America says this is a problem between the infotainment system manufacture and t-mobile cell towers. There is no fix for it. So what are consumers to do? I paid cash for a product, the product does not work, the manufactuer cannot fix it. Normally when this happens the company either 1) fixes the problem for free or b) lets you return the product. Vw says I can't do either. Backup cam - the camera is cheap, blurry and picks up nonexistent items and slams on the breaks everytime I back down my driveway. Not a human, animal or event a tree limb blowing in the wind. However, when a car is behind you, the backup cam will let you back into the car. Again, this is a "software" issue and the dealer cannot fix it. Forward collision warning, adaptive cruise control, blind spot warning, lane departure warning and lane keeping assistance only work intermittently. I'd say about 30% of the time I drive the car, it just dings at me while my dashboard lights up and says all these features failed. Vw has no record of it in the cars "error log" so I had to set up a camera in my car to prove them wrong. Once they saw it, they said they don't know a fix. Maybe they can swap out the infotainment system / software, but that requires several layers of approval first.
