Other Fuel System Tank Assembly Problems of Volkswagen Tiguan

The gas tank door often gets stuck and won't open. It happened at least two dozen times to me. This is a safety concern because it happens when gas level is very low. One time it was near midnight and I was at a gas station in the very remote area. I was concerned about my safety. If you search online, you will see this is a widespread problem for vw and Audi cars. It is evident that it is a design flaw that vw has refused to acknowledge it. It should be recalled and fixed permanently. Thank you for your attention.

The car does not get more than 316 miles to a full tank. It also feels like the transmission is jerking you forward which causes the car to be really sluggish.

I wonder why I have not received a recall notice NHTSA campaign number 14v441000. My 2013 vw Tiguan died while traversing a slight incline in an intersection. Fortunately no other cars were present. Vehicle was later towed to vw dealership. Work order failed to mention that auto died, instead service advisor wrote the following: "ck engine light on. Tech(s): 8563 warranty. Customer states check engine light is on. Scanned for trouble codes. Ran gffault p0192 fuel rail pressure intermittent. Performed test plan, checked fuel pressures, all within specs. Cleared codes, retested in am operating to specs, possible fuel level was too low in fuel tank, but vehicle is currently operating to specs. " the instrument panel read range: 85 miles, which, in my opinion, discredits the conjecture that the fuel level in fuel tank was too low. Is there a way to facilitate receiving a recall notice? if so please advise.

This car does not feel safe. Several times the car has just stopped. Stopped at a traffic light and started to go and car just died. No lights, no warning. I start up the car, move forward and get ready to pull out into traffic and car just dies. Vw said they need to have warning lights or something so they can get the information from the computer and since there are none, it won't tell them anything. Even in high-speed driving it sometimes feels like there is a lull or that fuel is not be injected. Car does not feel safe. I only use premium gas and keep it above 1/4 of a tank as well. I do not trust this car. Unfortunately, I cannot change it out at this time.
