Open the full vehicle complaint log (all categories)The brakes sound like their grinding and the motor drives funny
The brakes are loud, grinding, and sounds like water sloshing around. Upon research, VW knows this issues since their 22 model and has yet to address it but rather keeps using bad material brakes. The braking results in shaking when breaking especially in the colder months. This is not safe and on a brand new car, should not be happening. The dealerships acknowledged that this is a known issue with VW
THREE TIME WHILE IN REVERSE THE CAR SUDDENLY STOPS AND MAKES LOUD NOISE. I AM VERY CONCERNED BECAUSE THIS CAR WAS RECENTLY PURCHASED AND I AM AFRAID TO DRIVE ON THE HIGHWAY. I AM CONTACTING THE DEALERSHIP TODAY ABOUT THIS ISSUE TODAY
