Coolant Leaking Problems of Volkswagen Tiguan

On June 7th, 2018. . . I took car to dealer for coolant leak repair. Repair was finished however the dealer suggests to have a major engine oil leak repair to prevent oil leaks, because of known cases with other similar vw Tiguan model cars. The repair would cost $1700. 00. They said that the engine sealant used originally in manufacturing the car was not the correct sealant, and the sealant would eventually fail and cause major damage to many parts of the engine. Later on a mailer was sent to my house stating the suggested repair and that safety would be an issue if this repair was not performed. I am not only worried about the safety of myself driving my car, I'm also worried that I don't have funds for this unexpected repair. . . $1700. 00.

Coolant pump went out Jan 25 2015. I had purchased car used from a non vw dealer but took to it to a vw dealer to repair. They replaced for $750. 00. I researched further on carfax and found the pump had been replaced already by another vw dealership within the previous 12 months. I contacted vw and had to fight with them to cover my repair when it should have been part of the warranty with previous repair. They did refund my money. It is now 2 months later, 3/25/2015 and I am again experiencing a coolant leak.
