NHTSA Complaint #11010654 — 2011 VOLKSWAGEN TIGUAN

TURBO FAILURE, WATER PUMP FAILURE, AND REAR MAIN SEAL FAILURE. ALL RIGHT AFTER HITTING 100K MILES. NEARLY 5K IN TOTAL REPAIR COSTS. I'VE EXPERIENCED REDUCED PERFORMANCE BECAUSE OF THE TRURBO ISSUES. ISSUES PULLING OUT ON TO STREETS, OR ON RAMPS. I OPTED OUT OF THE REPAIR AT THE TIME DUE TO VW WANTING 2.2K TO REPLACE THE TURBO, WHICH SHOULD BE ALMOST A LIFETIME PART. I THEN TOOK IT BACK 2 WEEKS LATER FOR THE WATER PUMP WHICH WAS LEAKING FLUID EVERYWHERE, THEY REPLACED THE WATER PUMP BUT FAILED TO MENTION THAT THE REAR MAIN SEAL WILL NEED REPLACED AS WELL. REAR MAIN SEAL IS COMMON, AND COULD RESULT IN A FIRE IF ENOUGH OIL LEAKS ON TO THE EXHAUST.
