Consumer Description
Passagner side radiator housing clip is loose and can disloge the radiator allowing the coolant sensor to make contact with the serpentine belt gear and break the coolant hose connector that can casue a catasrophic coolant system failure. Multiple ownsers are also complaining of the same issue. https://www.vwvortex.com/threads/coolant-system-failure.9496016/ video showing the issue: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OWZuAx7tA8w Local dealer states: no repair available at this time when I brought it to the dealer to address before it became an issue. I already had to reclip it twice.
