Description of the problem | While driving 35mph,no one in either direction, flat street surface,braking system went on with the alert on dash and noise. It has happened 4 times where the cars braking system turns on, brakes while accelerating, and then it takes several seconds before you can move from the intersection, hoping not to have a collision from car that is behind. Took to the dealers several times and they cannot verify. The engine light was on for several weeks. One dealer said they cannot see me for another 2 weeks. Called vw headquarters to get me in sooner. The triangle light with exclamation point was also on. The key light was on as well while my car was running, stating the keys were not in the car. When i went to accelerate, car turned off. Sunroof was leaking--have a video remote keys do not work all the time. Start up has issues, doors lock when i am close to the car for no reason, doors do not unlock from the inside until i turn on the car, the rear door does not open at times- have a video, if keys are in pocket, doors do not unlock easily(was told i have to hold the handle correctly or it will not open) the side alert system goes off all the time when nothing is there. Front windows would not go down -on receipt they stated they found windows were fine. Advisor told me that the button on the door was burned out, but they did not write that in the report. Steering issues where the car was moving right to left and very loose |
