Brake Disc Pads Problems of Volkswagen Touareg

The contact owns a 2012 Volkswagen Touareg. The contact stated that a knocking sound was coming from the under carriage of the vehicle. The contact took the vehicle to the dealer where the dealer was able to identify the knocking, but was unable to diagnose the failure. The dealer contacted the manufacturer and was told they were aware of the problem, but did not have a solution available to remedy the issue. The contact stated that after 9 days, the manufacturer provided a special spray to the dealer to spray behind the brake pads. The contact left the vehicle with the dealer for repairs. The failure mileage was 15 and the current mileage 1,200.

Screeching brakes. The brakes were screeching for the past three months and the vw dealership replaced the pads and disc. After three attempts, I was told that the screeching is normal. Also, since I bought the SUV in setptmber 2004, I have been having an alignment problem which resulted in excessive tire wear. The dealer did numerous alignments and I changed all four tires( 3 times), but the problem still exists. The vehicle only has about 28,000 miles.

Constant squeaking brakes when I came off of the brakes, not pushing down this occurred for several weeks. I took in to dealer, was initially told no problem existed it was brake dust, and may need more expensive pads. I took it back about 1 month later (sept 2007) at my 20k mile check and was told I needed whole new front brakes.

I have had my 2004 vw Touareg since June 2006 and have had problem after problem with the vehicle. The catalytic converter went out within 6 weeks of buying the car, the drive shaft had to be replaced, the air conditioning compressor had to be replaced, the brakes have had to be replaced and I am getting another "check brake pads" error again, the tire monitoring system continually tells me I have a flat, the radio amplifier was making a loud cracking so the dealership replaced a fuse and blew the 2 back speakers (which they would not fix, hewlett vw in georgetown, texas), the auto differential is going out. There seems to be no end in sight for repairs.

I own a 2005 vw Touareg and the brakes squeal at slow speeds. The dealership says this is normal for brakes to squeal on a heavy SUV. The car is practically brand new, and even though the dealership changed the brake pads due to a TSB from vw, the brakes still squeal. It appears vw knows its a design defect because they've announced that "larger brakes" will be added to the new 2007 Touareg's in the future.

The brakes in my 2005 jetta gli make a very loud noise when I back up. It was a recall and they told me the first day that they had taken care of it, and that if I keep on hearing the noise take it back. Well the noise its pretty bad, so I took the car back and they said they couldnt do anything about it, but I don't think they even looked at the car, because when I picked it up it was exactly how I left it and usually they wash you car or put plastic when they see it.

Since I purchased a 2004 vw Touareg on 2/28/04 I have had various problems with it. The most severe is the front end allignment and brakes. I have had a total of 6 front end allignments since I purchased the vehicule. It is in the shop right now and they can not correct it. This is a an extreme hazard at higher speeds since the SUV pulls hard to the right. I was told by the mechanic that worked on my vehicule that he set the allignment to factor specs and it still pulls to the right. I took it to tire kingdom twice and they did the same and did a high speed balance on the tires as well and it still pulls to the right. Also volkwagon of America put out circular vwa-04-12 stating that there is a factory problem with front end allignments on certin VIN numbers on the Touareg. Vw will not acknowledge that there is a problem. I also have trouble with the breaks making loud noise and wearing out fast. Now they are telling me that the rotors are bad. I have complained about the brakes and nothing was done. Also there is condensation on the windshield from the air conditioning and they did have a recall on this, but the trouble still exsists.
