Description of the problem | Annoying rattle pillar-b driver side only while in motion. Rattle seems related to frame issue and temperature-dependent (it is louder when temps low 30s). Issue widespread reported on the web. Reports already of 3-4 tiguans that vw has offered full replacement with new vehicles due to this issue. Concerned about safety of my family if structural defect. Car is brand new rattle started at 750 miles. |
