2011 Volkswagen CC engine problems

“I WAS LEAVING THE STORE WHEN I NOTICED MY VEHICULAR WOULDN'T GO OVER 30 MPH. I PULLED INTO ANOTHER STORE TO ASSESS THE SITUATION. WHEN I TURNED MY CAR BACK ON AND WAS ATTEMPTING TO LEAVE MY CAR STOPPED WORKING. I HAD IT TOWED TO THE SHOP AND THEY ADVISED ME TO CALL VOLKSWAGEN BECAUSE THIS ISSUES WAS LIKELY COVERED UNDER A WARRANTY. I CALLED VOLKESWAGEN AND THEY SAID MY WARRANTY WOULD COVER IT UP TO 120K MILES AND TO TAKE IT TO THE LOCAL DEALERSHIP. I HAD THE CAR TOWED AGAIN TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY INFORMED ME THAT THE TIMING CHAIN WAS BROKEN AND THEY SAID MY WARRANTY JUST EXPIRED AT 100K MILES. MY CAR HAS 108K MILES. AFTER DOING A LOT OF RESEARCH I FOUND THIS TO BE A FREQUENT PROBLEM WITH THIS MANUFACTURE. I ALSO FOUND THAT THERE WAS ALREADY A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT BUT MY VEHICLE WASN'T IN THE PERAMITERS BECAUSE OF THE MILEAGE (ENDS AT 100K). I NEVER RECEIVED NOTICE OF THE RECALL OR I WOULD HAVE TAKEN IT IN TO GET LOOKED AT BEFORE THE 100K MIKE CUTOFF. BECAUSE THEY SAID THIS WASN'T COVERED IN THE WARRANTY, I LOOKED INTO BUYING ANOTHER CAR FROM THEM. THEY INFORMED ME THAT THEY COULD GIVE ME $250 FOR MY VEHICLE. NOW I KNOW VOLKSWAGEN IS TRYING TO AVOID PAYING…”

“VEHICLE KEEPS MISFIRING. CHECK ENGINE LIGHT REMAINS ON. EPC LIGHT COMES ON PERIODICALLY AFTER FUEL PUMP WAS REPLACED. WHILE DRIVING CAR JERKS AND CHECK ENGINE LIGHT BEGINS TO FLASH. LOTS OF WEAR TO TIRES WITHIN A FEW THOUSAND MILES. BREAKS MUST BE PUSH ON HARD TO STOP. THE DEALERSHIP SAID THE ONLY THING THAT WAS WRONG WAS A CODE FOR CARBON BUILDUP. DEALERSHIP WOULD NOT PROVIDE CODE JUST A PRICE OF $1000. SPARK PLUGS AND COILS WERE CHANGED BEFORE PURCHASING VEHICLE. I'M CERTAIN THE FUEL PUMP WAS NOT CHANGED. THE VEHICLE USES 1/8 OF A TANK TO WARM UP.”

“TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 VOLKSWAGEN CC. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE ENGINE WOULD NOT START. THERE WERE NO WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO OURISMAN HONDA OF LAUREL (3371 LAUREL FORT MEADE RD, LAUREL, MD 20724, (301) 498-7400) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE ENGINE NEEDED TO BE REPAIRED. THE VEHICLE HAD NOT BEEN REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 60,000.”

“BOUGHT THE CAR USED AND TOOK IT TO A MECHANIC TO GET IT CHECKED OUT. LOW AND BEHOLD THEY INFORMED ME I HAVE A FAILING POWER STEERING MODULE, REAR MAIN SEAL, CARBON BUILD UP ON THE INTAKE, AS WELL AS CRACKS IN BOTH FRONT CONTROL ARMS. TOOK IT TO A DEALER WHO CONFIRMED THIS DIAGNOSIS AND GAVE ME A $6250 QUOTE FOR THE WORK. CAR WAS DRIVING FINE AND FELT GREAT. AFTER TAKING IT TO THE SHOP THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WAS ON. CAR HAS 90K ON IT AND WAS UNDER WARRANTY UNTIL THEN. ALL THESE ITEMS WERE NEGLECTED BY THE DEALER.”

“TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 VOLKSWAGEN CC. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 25 MPH, THE VEHICLE BEGAN TO HESITATE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO DUBLIN VOLKSWAGEN (6085 SCARLETT COURT, DUBLIN, CA 94568) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE TIMING CHAIN TENSIONER FAILED AND NEEDED REPLACEMENT. THE SAME DEALER REPAIRED THE VEHICLE IN 2015, 2016, AND 2017 FOR THE SAME FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED FOR THE RECENT FAILURE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 194,000.”

“I RECEIVED A RECALL FOR MY FUEL PUMP. I WENT AND GOT THE FUEL PUMP REPLACED. NOW THAT THE FUEL PUMP HAS BEEN REPLACED, MY CAR IS NOT STARTING, SHAKING AT RED LIGHTS, TURNING OFF ON ITS OWN, WINDOWS COMING DOWN ON ITS OWN, AIR NOT WORKING AND COMING BACK ON. I WAS IN MOTION BACKING UP AND MY CAR JUST TURNED OFF ON ITS ON. I AM AT A STANDSTILL WITH WHAT AM I SUPPOSED TO DO IF THE VEHICLE HAD A RECALL- THAT WAS SUPPOSEDLY REPLACED BUT MADE THE CAR WORSE.”
