1) IGNITION SWITCH - yes 2) car wont turn off, key is stuck and wont allow to be turned off. this is dangerous for car to be left on. 3) yes - common problem with VW 4) yes by mechanic 5) no warnings, typically ignition needs jiggling to start and turn off ignition but this is the first time it has refused to budge.

2010 Jetta, manual transmission Key gets stuck in ignition and wont cut car off. Eventually got key out, ignition locked wont let key turn car on. This is a known vw issue with over 860 complaints on this exact issue between 2009-2013. VW refuses to do recall, even though this is a manufacturing parts issue.

FAULT ON ANTI LOCKING BRAKE (ABS), INDICATED BY ILLUMINATION ON DASH, ESC LIGHT ON AND FLASHING BRAKE LIGHT ON. DEALER WAS NOTIFIED THAT ISSUE AS LISTED IN SAFETY RECALL 16V-913 APPLIES TO OTHER VEHICLES NOT LISTED ON VIN RANGE. THIS IS A HUGE SAFETY CONCERN AND NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED AS OTHERS HAVE INDICATED THE SAME ISSUE EXISTS ON THEIR MODELS NOT COVERED BY VIN RECALL. CUSTOMER SERVICE (VW) WAS CALLED, PER DEALER DIRECTION AND CUSTOMER SERVICE AT VW DOES NOT KNOW HOW TO READ THE VIN CODES OR CAN TELL ME WHICH VIN CODE MAKES THE FAULTY ABS MODULE APPLICABLE OR NOT APPLICABLE TO MY VEHICLE.

Car spontaneously caught fire while driving

Abs and stability control became inoperative at around 50mph. It's a 55mph road thats heavily trafficked since its near a port. I had to stop the car on the side of the road since we almost crashed into an 18 wheeler. Fortunately we were close to home I drove the car at a reasonable speed just to get home. After that incident we have stopped using this vehicle since it gets even more dangerous every time, especially when it rains. Since then brake light has come on and hydraulic and suspension has been bad. This happened last year when pandemic was still full force and without a vehicle. Had to save and buy a more reliable vehicle for our own safety. I know this is a really good car but i really hope y’all can help me fix this since it’s really not the consumer’s fault. I’ve checked there is...

the vehicle ABS module failed back in Nov2020 and was brought to local VW Dealer and diagnosed as bad module. fast forward to Aug 2021 and ABS module failed again and bad wiring was found which is why the first module failed to begin with in my belief. both times when the module failed was after my wife slammed on brakes hard activating the ABS system which in turn caused the warning lights to come on and car go into limp mode. I tried limping the car to the dealership for repair and was almost hit by a large truck coming from behind as I had no response from the accelerator pedal. I am not sure why this particular VIN was never added to the recall list as it fits the criteria as all other vehicles experiencing this issue. we paid $2600 the first time for the repair and are...

Im thinking electrical problems lights windshield wipers air locks windows locks dont work when you turn the car off lights dont go out! there is 6 recalls on this car i need to find out if they have been fixed. It was bought for my daughter and can not give it to her like this

When I try to start the car it was giving me a hard time to turn the key in the ignition then when I got it to start I was coming home and I park the car try to stop the car and take the key out the ignition it won't cut off and the key stuck in the ignition while the car still on it wouldn't let me stop or cut off the car and the key wouldn't come out of the ignition

I WAS DRIVING DOWN A BUSY ROAD WHEN I SAW SMOKE COMING OUT FROM UNDER MY HOOD OF THE CAR. I IMMEDIATELY PULLED OVER ONTO A SIDE STREET AND POPPED THE HOOD. THE ENGINE WAS ENGULFED IN FLAMES. I THEN PULLED MY PANICKED 4 YEAR OLD DAUGHTER OUT OF HER CAR SEAT AND TOOK HER ACROSS THE STREET. WE THEN CALLED 9-11 AND THE SHERIFF'S DEPARTMENT AND FIRE DEPARTMENT SHOWED UP TO PUT OUT THE FIRE. I HAD MY CAR TOWED TO A MECHANIC WHERE HE SAYS THE FIRE WAS CAUSED BY A FUEL LINE. THERE IS A RECALL FOR THE SAME YEAR AND MODEL FOR MY CAR BUT IT IS NOT FOR MY VIN# EVEN THOUGH IT'S THE SAME CAUSE AS MY CAR'S FIRE!

ONGOING OCCURRENCE: WHEN I START MY CAR THE SUNROOF TILTS OPEN. I START TO DRIVE AND THE SUNROOF WOULD START RANDOMLY OPEN AND CLOSE WITHOUT ME TOUCHING KNOB TO OPEN SUNROOF. I COULD PUSH ON KNOB AND SUNROOF CLOSES FROM TILT POSITION AND AT TIMES IT WOULD JUST OPEN RIGHT BACK UP. THIS OCCURS DURING DRIVING AND WITHOUT DRIVING WITH CAR IGNITION ON. SEEMS LIKE ELECTRICAL ISSUE WITHIN THE SUNROOF CONTROLLER.

KEY WONT TURN, AS IF THERE IS A LOCKED STEERING WHEEL (EVEN THOUGH THERE ISN'T). AFTER ABOUT 30 MINUTES, WAS ABLE TO GET THE CAR STARTED, BUT COULDN'T TURN THE CAR BACK OFF WITHOUT APPLYING AN OVERLY STRONG INWARD PRESSURE TO TURN OFF THE CAR. THE IGNITION SWITCH IS STIFF AND LOCKS UP.

CONTROL PANEL FAN STOPPED WORKING AND BACK PASSENGER FLOOR IS WET.

REAR DRIVER SIDE DOOR LOCKING MECHANISM HAS FAILED, IN THE UNLOCKED POSITION, RENDERING SECURING THE VEHICLE IMPOSSIBLE. THERE IS NO SECONDARY METHOD OF LOCKING THE DOOR, SINCE THE ACTUATOR IS SOLELY ELECTRICALLY OPERATED. THERE ARE ALSO INDICATIONS THAT THIS CONDITION IS RESPONSIBLE FOR DRAINING THE CAR'S BATTERY WHEN LEFT FOR MORE THAN 5 DAYS WITHOUT STARTING.

IGNITION SWITCH STOPPED WORKING AND CAR WOULD NOT TURN ON. COST $800 DOLLARS TO REPLACE.

MY VEHICLE SHUTS OFF WHILE DRIVING AND I SEE CERTAIN LIGHTS SHOW UP WHEN THIS HAPPENS THE I LOSE THE CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE UNTIL IT POWERS BACK ON. I'VE ALREADY RULED OUT THE BATTERY AND ALTERNATOR IN THE VEHICLE. I LOOKED UP RECALLS AND THOUGH THERE IS NOT ONE ASSOCIATED WITH MY VIN THERE ARE RECALLS THAT ARE VERY SIMILAR TO MY ISSUE THAT I HAVE FROM DECEMBER 15, 2016. WHEN THE VEHICLES ELECTRONICS SHUT OF THE WHEEL LOCKS MAKING ME UNABLE TO TURN. WHEN THE ELECTRONICS COME BACK ON I REGAIN FULL MOBILITY. *TR

ABS MODULE HAS FAILED. FUEL PUMP HAS FAILED. 3 DOOR LOCK MODULES HAVE FAILED. RADIO HAS FAILED. FUEL PUMP ISSUES CAUSED BATTERY DRAIN ISSUES.

MY 2010 JETTA WOLFSBURG'S LOCKS DO NOT WORK WHENEVER IT RAINS - DRIVER'S SIDE DOOR IS LOCKED WHEN UNLOCK CAR, BUT OTHER DOORS ARE UNLOCKED. HAVE TO USE KEY TO OPEN DOOR. FURTHERMORE, THE PASSENGER DOOR ON DRIVER'S SIDE DOES NOT LOCK AT ALL SO CAN BE OPENED WHEN PARKED AT A LIGHT, ETC. THE CAR HAS A SUNROOF AND WHEN RAINS CONDENSATION BUILDS UP AROUND PASSENGER SIDE DOOR AND WINDOW ON DRIVER'S SIDE (HAVE SEEN MILDEW AND MOLD GROWING SO CLEAN AFTER EVER RAIN). RADIO WAS WORKING AND DIED DURING RAIN. FUSES ARE OK. DEALER SAYS RADIO IS DEAD AND $900 TO REPLACE WITH A FACTORY ONE. I AM CONCERNED ABOUT SIDE AIRBAGS WORKING ALONG WITH BEING ABLE TO OPEN A DOOR THAT SHOULD BE LOCKED.

KEY GETS STUCK IN IGNITION WHEN TURNING OFF THE ENGINE.

THE DOOR LOCKS/LATCHES FOR VW JETTA WOLFSBURG EDITION 2010 ARE NOT WORKING (CURRENTLY, THREE OUT OF FOUR DOORS/LATCHES ARE NOT WORKING). THE ESTIMATED COST FOR REPLACEMENT IS $595 PER DOOR LATCH (TOTAL ESTIMATED COST: $1,785). WHILE IT MAY POSE A SAFETY RISK, IT IS ALSO POSSIBLE THAT THE SIDE AIRBAGS MAY OR MAY NOT WORK WHEN THERE ARE ELECTRICAL ISSUES WITH THE DOOR LOCKS/LATCHES. THERE IS ALSO A POSSIBILITY FOR THEFT WHEN THE DOOR LOCKS ARE NOT WORKING. ALSO, TURN SIGNALS ON BOTH SIDE-VIEW MIRRORS ARE NOT WORKING. THE ESTIMATED COST FOR REPLACEMENT OF TURN SIGNAL ON EACH SIDE IS $437 (TOTAL ESTIMATED COST: $874). FOR THE REPLACEMENT OF DEFECTIVE DOOR LOCKS/LATCHES (3 OUT OF 4 DOORS) AND TURN SIGNALS ON SIDE-VIEW MIRRORS (BOTH LEFT AND RIGHT SIDE), THE ESTIMATED TOTAL COST WILL BE $2,659. ANOTHER IMPORTANT POINT: BETWEEN DECEMBER 2017 AND DECEMBER 2018, THERE WERE SEVERAL PROBLEMS IN THIS...

SAME ... I COULDN'T TURN OFF MY CAR OR TAKE THE KEYS OUT, THE CAR WAS ON FOR MORE THAT 3 HRS, TOOK THE CAR TO VW AND THEY ARE CHARGING ME $800+ FOR FIXING IT, I LET MY CAR THERE AND IT WAS STILL ON. THIS IS A VW PROBLEM, AND THEY SHOULD DO A RECALL AND/OR AT LEAST RECOGNIZE PART OF THE FIXING ON THESE MODELS, WHERE IS THE CONSUMER PRODUCT HELP? WE NEED A RECALL ON THIS IGNITION BOX PROBLEMS, THIS IS DANGEROUS . ALSO THEY SHOULD REIMBURSE ALL OF US

RANDOM MISFIRE PERMANENT CYLINDER V AND AFTER THE START OF EFFECTS ON THE AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION HEARD TUBA AND SOME OF THE DEVELOPMENT

IGNITIONS SWITCH WON'T TURN OFF AND CAR KEEPS RUNNING UNTIL BROUGHT TO SHOP TO TURN OFF. MANY ATTEMPTS TO GET THE IGNITION SWITCH TO TURN OFF FAILED, BEFORE THIS HAPPEN FEW TIME THE CAR TURNED OFF FOR NO REASON, NOT SURE IF IT IS RELATED TO THE IGNITION SWITCH NOT TURNING OFF PROBLEM.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 VOLKSWAGEN JETTA. WHILE DRIVING 25 MPH, THE BRAKE LIGHTS AND HEADLIGHTS FAILED TO WORK PROPERLY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE BULBS WERE REPLACED EVERY TWO MONTHS. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN UNKNOWN LOCAL DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THERE WAS AN ELECTRICAL FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS UNKNOWN.

KEY CONSTANTLY GETS STUCK IN IGNITION SWITCH AND CAN'T TURN VEHICLE OFF. VEHICLE REMAINS RUNNING WHILE KEY WONT TURN IN OFF POSITION. HAD TO DISCONNECT BATTERY TERMINAL AND FUEL PUMP FUSE TO SHUT VEHICLE OFF. KEY STILL REMAINS STUCK IN IGNITION SWITCH.

THE KEY IS STUCK IN THE ON POSITION WITH ENGINE RUNNING. HAD TO PULL RELAY TO STOP ENGINE. UNABLE TO REMOVE KEY FROM THE IGNITION SWITCH. DEALER CHARGES $600-$800 TO REPAIR.

THE RADIO STOPPED WORKING COMPLETELY, WHICH SEEMS LIKE A COMMON PROBLEM. BUT IN ADDITION THE LIGHTS WERE MALFUNCTIONING FROM THAT POINT ON. 12 DIFFERENT ERROR WARNINGS APPEARED ON THE READOUT ABOUT DIFFERENT LIGHTS NOT WORKING. I CHECKED THE FUSES AND ALL OF THEM WERE OK, NOT BURNED. SEVERAL YEARS AGO I HAD ONE OF THE HEADLIGHTS INTERMITTENTLY NOT WORK. AT THAT POINT I CHECKED THE FUSES AND THERE WAS ONE FUSE THAT HAD A DEFORMED PLASTIC CAP, BUT THE METAL PART WAS STILL IN ONE PIECE. PART OF THE FUSE BOX IT WAS INSERTED IN WAS MELTED. THIS ALL HAPPENED WHEN I FIRST STARTED THE CAR. OBVIOUSLY I COULD NOT OPERATE THE CAR SINCE THE BRAKE LIGHTS, TURN SIGNALS, AND HEADLIGHTS WERE ALL AFFECTED. THE DIAGNOSTIC DISPLAY IN THE CAR ALSO SHOWED TO CHECK THE AIRBAGS AND STABILITY CONTROL.

THE KEY GETS STUCK IN THE IGNITION SWITCH AND IT WON'T TURN ON OR OFF.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 VOLKSWAGEN JETTA. WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY, THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT START WHEN PROMPTED. LITHIA AUTO STORE (7063 SOUTH VIRGINIA ST, RENO, NV 89511) WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND STATED THAT THE VEHICLE'S SOFTWARE NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE VIN WAS INVALID. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 57,000.

I HAVE PROBLEMS WITH THE BLINKERS, EMERGENCY FLASHERS, SUNROOF AND DOOR LOCKS COMING ON, NOT WORKING PROPERLY AND ADJUSTING ALL ON THEIR OWN. NOW MY RADIO IS NOT WORKING AT ALL. THERE ARE NO RECALLS ON ANY OF THIS ONLY WARRANTY EXTENSION IS ON THE SECONDARY AIR SENSOR. MOST HAPPENS VEHICLE IS ON OR OFF. PARKED OR RUNNING.

NOT ABLE TO TURN KEY IN THE IGNITION. SOMETIMES NOT ABLE TO START CAR. SOMETIMES NOT ABLE TO TURN CAR OFF.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 VOLKSWAGEN JETTA. AFTER OPERATING THE VEHICLE, THE RADIO FAILED TO OPERATE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO VOLKSWAGEN PRINCETON (902 STATE RD, PRINCETON, NJ 08540) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE RADIO NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE VIN WAS NOT PROVIDED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 33,000.

THE RADIO/BLUETOOTH/CD PLAYER COMPLETELY STOPPED WORKING WHEN THE IGNITION TURNED ON. IT HAD WORKED THE PREVIOUS DAY. I TOOK IT TO MY MECHANIC. IT IS NOT THE FUSE. IT NEEDS A COMPLETE NEW RADIO SYSTEM. I CALLED THE DEALER, BUT IT IS NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY. THE TOTAL WOULD BE $800+. AFTER CHECKING ON LINE, I FIND THAT THERE ARE MULTIPLE COMPLAINTS ON THIS SAME SUBJECT.

TAKATA RECALL. I WAS IN THE MOUNTAINS OF NC CAMPING. MY JETTA WAS WORKING PERFECTLY FINE. I WENT TO START IT THE NEXT DAY AND THE RADIO WAS COMPLETELY DEAD. THE JETTA IS NOT VERY OLD. ALSO, THE BACK LEFT BREAK LIGHT AND FRONT RIGHT HEADLIGHT WAS NOT WORKING. THE BREAKLIGHT AND THE HEADLIGHT STARTED WORKING AS I WAS DRIVING IT, BUT THE STEREO HAS BEEN DEAD FOR ALMOST A WEEK NOW. THIS SHOULD NOT HAPPEN. I DID A SEARCH ONLINE AND HUNDREDS OF OTHER PEOPLE ARE HAVING THE SAME EXACT PROBLEM WITH THEIR RADIO IN THE SAME YEAR JETTA AS MINE. THIS SHOULD NOT BE HAPPENING AND I WISH VOLKSWAGEN WOULD TAKE CARE OF THIS PROBLEM AS IT IS PRETTY COMMON.

THE LIGHTS ARE ALL CROSSED. THE LEFT TURN SIGNAL IS WEAKER ON THE DRIVER MIRROR. THE OVERHEAD LIGHTS SEEMED TO BE CROSSED. YOU TURN ONE OFF AND THE PASSENGER LIGHTS IN BACK COME ON. THE BLUETOOTH STOPPED WORKING. IT IS LIKE IT HAS A SHIRT IN IT. THIS IS WHILE DRIVING AS WELL AS STATIONARY IN CAR PORT.

"KEY GETS STUCK IN IGNITION AND I CANNOT TURN OFF THE ENGINE." I GOT HOME FROM RUNNING ERRANDS. PARKED IN MY DRIVEWAY AND COULD NOT TURN CAR OFF. KEY WAS STUCK

THE ABS SYSTEM WENT OUT OF CONTROL, ALL OF THE SUDDEN THE LIGHTS ON THE DASHBOARD WHERE ON. THE CAR WAS IN MOTION WHEN THIS HAPPENED IT WAS A SCARY SITUATION! THERE IS A LOCAL VOLKSWAGEN NEAR MY HOUSE AND THIS PEOPLE SUGGEST ME TO CHANGE THE ENTIRE ABS PUMP, VACUUM PUMP AND THEY GOT THE NERVE TO CHARGE ME FOR THE CAR REVISION WHEN THEY KNEW THIS CAR IS ON RECALL.

MY KEY HAS BEEN DIFFICULT TO TURN IN THE IGNITION TO START THE CAR RECENTLY. YESTERDAY I HAD THE SAME PROBLEM BUT THE CAR STARTED. AFTER DRIVING THE CAR THE KEY WOULD NOT TURN TO TURN OFF THE CAR. NO MATTER WHAT I CAN NOT GET THE KEY OUT OF THE IGNITION. I ONLY GOT THE MOTOR TO SHUT OFF BECAUSE MY SON KNEW TO PULL A FUSE AND THEN TAKE OFF A BATTERY CABLE. THIS IGNITION PROBLEM IS SERIOUS AND IS A SAFETY ISSUE IF YOU CAN'T TURN OFF THE CAR.

AS WITH MOST OTHER 2010 VW JETTA OWNERS, MY PREMIUM 8 TOUCH SCREEN RADIO (SN: VWZ4Z7J3024044) STOPPED WORKING, NO WARNING OR INTERMITTENT PROBLEMS PRIOR TO THE FAILURE. I HAVE BEEN TAKING A GREAT CARE OF MY JETTA WHICH HAS VERY LOW MILES (33K) AND I NEVER HAVE HAD A RADIO FAIL IN ANY MY PREVIOUS CARS, ONE OF THEM WAS ALSO A VW CAR. MY LOCAL VW DEALERSHIP WANTS TO CHARGE ME $600 FOR A REFURBISHED RADIO PLUS $70 FOR THE INSTALLATION. I HAVE REVIEWED VARIOUS ONLINE FORUMS AND DISCOVERED THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THE REVISION OF THIS RADIO FOR THE 2010-2011 MODEL YEAR. UNFORTUNATELY VOLKSWAGEN HAS DONE NOTHING TO ISSUE RECALL. THE CAR HAS INTEGRATED HANDS FREE BLUETOOTH WHICH ALSO DOES NOT WORK BECAUSE OF THE RADIO AND IS A SAFETY ISSUE FOR HANDS FREE CALLING REQUIRED IN MY STATE. ALSO, THIS WILL CAUSE A DRAIN ON...

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 VOLKSWAGEN JETTA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE FAILED TO START AND THE AIR BAG AND BRAKE INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO A DEALER OR DIAGNOSED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 15,800.

AS WITH MOST OTHER 2010 VW JETTA OWNERS, MY RADIO HAS GONE OUT NOT ONCE BUT NOW TWICE. THERE IS AN ELECTRILCAL PROBLEM ON THE DRIVERS SIDE OF HTE CAR BECAUSE NOT ONLY DOES THIS HAPPEN BUT MY HEAD LIGHTS, RUNNING LIGHTS BURN OUT AT A MIND BLOWING RATE. IT IS A SAFETY ISSUE FOR MANY REASONS, MOST BEING THE FACT THAT MY HANDSFREE BLUETOOTH IS NOT FUNCTIONING NOW AND I DRIVE FOR MY JOB! THIS IS THE SECOND RADIO I WILL HAVE HAD TO REPLACE. RIDICULOUS.

WHILE RECENTLY DRIVING THE VEHICLE THE GEAR INDICATOR IN THE INSTRUMENT PANEL BEGAN TO FLASH AND THEN DISAPPEARED, NO LONGER REVEALING WHAT GEAR THE CAR WAS IN WHILE IN FORWARD MOTION, AND CAR BEGAN TO LOSE MOMENTUM WHILE DRIVING AND BEGAN SOUNDING AND MOVING AS THOUGH THE CAR WAS PLACED IN NEUTRAL. UPON STOPPING THE CAR AND AGAIN ATTEMPTING TO DRIVE FORWARD, THE CAR ENGINE REVVED AS THOUGH IN NEUTRAL. HAD CAR TOWED TO DEALER WHERE THEY DROVE IT AND MENTIONED THE WIRING HARNESS LEAKING OIL/FLUID. I HAVE HAD THIS CAR AT THE DEALER 4 TIMES WITHIN A 6 MONTH PERIOD (MAY-NOV 2016) FOR PREVENTATIVE MAINTENANCE, AS I KEEP THIS CAR IN EXCELLENT CONDITION AND HAVE IT CHECKED THROUGHOUT THE YEAR TO PREVENT ISSUES FROM OCCURRING. DURING ALL THESE TIMES I HAD NO ISSUES UNTIL NOW, AS AGAIN, I WORK VERY HARD TO MAINTAIN THIS VEHICLE. I HAVE SINCE DONE...

I AM UNABLE TO CARRY REAR PASSENGERS (ADULTS OR KIDS) AS THE REAR DOOR DO NOT OPERATE CONSISTENTLY.I CONSIDER THIS A MAJOR SAFETY CONCERN. DEALER WANTS A LARGE AMOUNT OF MONEY TO REPLACE TWO REAR WIRING HARNESS AS WELL AS THE ELECTRONIC DOOR ACTUATORS. THIS SEEMS TO BE IMPROPER LACK IN THE WIRING HARNESS TO THE REAR DOORS. I HAVE NEVER HAD SO MANY ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS WITH A VEHICLE IS SHORT A PERIOD OF TIME. THIS REALLY NEEDS TO BE ADDRESS SO THAT NOBODY IS INJURED FORM A DOOR THAT WILL NOT OPEN FROM THE OUTSIDE OR INSIDE, INCONSTANTLY. I WILL HOLD BOTH NHTSA AS WELL AS VW IF A TRAGIC EVENT DOES UNFORTUNATELY DOES OCCUR. THIS ITEM HAS BEEN POSTED NUMEROUS TIME IN VE FORMUS. MY JETTA TDI HAS 156K MILES, AND IT MAKES NO DIFFERENCE TO WEATHER OR TIME OF DAY. THIS IS A PERSISTENT PROBLEM THAT DOES...

OUT OF THE BLUE THE PREMIUM 8 TOUCH SCREEN RADIO STOPPED WORKING, NO WARNING OR INTERMITTENT PROBLEMS, PRIOR TO THE FAILURE. I HAD A MECHANIC CHECK THE RADIO FUSES AND NOTHING WAS BLOWN OR NEEDED REPAIR. EVERYTHING WAS NORMAL. THIS PROBLEM HAS OCCURRED MULTIPLE TIMES ON VW FORUMS. EVEN THOUGH THIS A MAJOR INCONVENIENCE IT IS STILL COMPONENT, MUCH LIKE WINDSHIELD WIPERS THAT OU JUST EXPECT TO WORK. TIME IN THE VW FORUMS. THIS NEEDS TO BE PLACED/FIXED. I NEVER HAVE HAD A RADIO FAIL IN ANY PREVIOUS CAR. I AM REALLY REGRETING MY PURCHASE OF THIS SUB-PAR, POORLY ENGINERED VEHICAL.

THE KEY WOULD NOT TURN IN THE IGNITION SWITCH, AND I WAS UNABLE TO TURN THE CAR OFF. THE CAR WAS STOPPED AND IN PARK. I HAD TO BRING THE CAR TO THE DEALER AND THEY TOLD ME THAT MY ONLY OPTION TO FIX THE PROBLEM WAS TO REPLACE THE IGNITION COMPONENT.

REAR ELECTRIC DOORS WILL UNLOCK CONSISTENTLY. DEALER RAN DIAGNOSTIC WHICH POINTS TO A FAULTY WIRING HARNESS. THIS SEEMS LIKE A PRODUCTION ISSUES AND NEEDS TO BE CORRECTED. END RESULT REAR DOORS CAN NOT BE OPENED UNLESS YOU USE THE INSIDE DOOR LEVER. FIRST RESPONDERS OR GOOD SAMARITANS WILL NOT BE ABLE TO PULL PEOPLE FROM THE REAR PASSENGER AREA. THIS HAPPENS INTERMITTENTLY VW FORUMS CITE SIMILAR PROBLEMS.

RADIO IS DEAD. SEE ALL THE MANY COMPLAINTS FROM OTHER OWNERS HERE: HTTPS://WWW.CARGURUS.COM/CARS/DISCUSSION-T36009_DS552583 SAFETY CONCERN WITH NO BLUETOOTH FUNCTION SINCE THE RADIO IS DEAD. BATTERY HAS BEEN REPLACED TWICE. AN ISSUE MANY OTHERS HAVE POSTED ABOUT. VW CHAT SAYS THERE IS NO CAMPAIGN FOR EITHER OF THESE ISSUES AND JUST GAVE ME A CASE NUMBER. THE SEAT SHOWED EARLY DETERIATION WHILE UNDER WARRANTY AND WAS POINTED OUT TO THE DEALER, STOKES VW SEVERAL TIMES. BUT THEY NEVER WROTE IT UP ON THE SERVICE ORDER. ANOTHER PROBLEM 2010 JETTA OWNERS HAVE POSTED ABOUT.

CAR WON'T START, JUMPED, DROVE AND FAILED TO START NEXT DAY, OWN TEST AND HAS CURRENT DRAW WHEN OFF, TOOK TO DEALER, SAID RADIO IS CAUSING PROBLEM, WON'T (GO TO SLEEP MODE WHEN TURNED OFF), TOLD $800 TO REPLACE THE RADIO, CHECKED ON LINE AND I SEE SO MANY, THOUSANDS I HEAR, PROBLEMS WITH RADIOS ON THIS STYLE CAR, IF VOLKSWAGEN WON'T STAND BEHIND A KNOWN ISSUE AND GO BACK ON THEIR SUPPLIER FOR A RESOLUTION, I WILL NOT STAND BEHIND VOLKSWAGEN AND PURCHASE ANOTHER ONE WHEN THE TIME COMES FOR A REPLACEMENT VEHICLE, IF THIS WAS A SAFETY ISSUE I'M SURE SOME LEGAL ACTION WOULD BE TAKEN, BUT IT'S ONLY A RADIO, COSTING A LOT OF PEOPLE, I'M GUESSING MILLIONS OF DOLLARS

THE CAR RADIO DOES NOT WORK. NO DISPLAY. NO POWER. FIRST WAS AN INTERMITTENT PROBLEM WHEN STARTING UP THE CAR, NO DISPLAY OR RADIO POWER. NOW NO RADIO OR DISPLAY ANYTIME.
