Steering Failed Problems of Volkswagen Tiguan

Powersteering fails intermittently, steering wheel wobbles without user intervention occasionally (at red light). Issue seems released to electrical power steering rack or control box, but vw does not seem to acknowledge this is a frequently reported problem. When does it happen: 1. After parking car, power steering is completely off, slowly driving for 20-30 sec so far brought it back. However, steering is not accurate (sometimes very light and wobble starts). After overnight parking things seem fine 2. On highway, after 20 mins drive steering became rather erratic with difficulties to keep car on the lane, after exit and stop engine and restart things were fine again. Happened several times. Can send video showing wobbling of steering wheel. . .

After fueling up at a gas station the 2018 Tiguan would not start. It was dead. Stationary at the fuel pump. Warning lights came on the dash to indicate steering column failure. No symptoms, the car would not try to start or begin to start. Just errors on dash. Car is only 1 year old with less than 10k miles on it. Dealer asked technician to jump car. No change. Car had to be towed to dealer. Dealer indicated a new steering column needed to be ordered and installed and that it was very odd to have failed. Quick research shows this happens all the time on vws. How can a part like this fail in less than 10k miles?.

While driving the vehicle down a major local roadway (approx 40 miles per hour), the steering rack failed disabling the vehicles ability to steer. This failure happened with no warning, and the vehicle was unable to be steered again until it was shut off. Due to the electronic steering system (versus a standard steering pump) the vehicle steering system locked entirely. The vehicle was taken to the local Volkswagen dealer, who confirmed a total failure of the steering rack.

My vehicle was in motion pulling out of my driveway and turning onto the street when the steering failed completely and I was unable to direct my car. To avoid blocking traffic I had to pull into my neighbors front yard. The car was in motion and around other cars when I lost control. This is the second incident with this vehicle.
