“The contact owns a 2014 Volkswagen CC. The contact stated while driving 30 MPH, the air bag warning light illuminated. Additionally, the steering wheel control buttons and the horn became inoperable. The contact related the failure to NHTSA Campaign Number: 15V483000 (Air Bags). The local dealer was contacted and informed the contact that the VIN was not included in the recall. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and informed the contact that the VIN was not included in a recall. The failure mileage was approximately 50,000.”
“The clockspring on my vehicle is out. I know this has been a MAJOR issue and recalls with my make and model of cars (Volkswagens). It is not fair that all models and makes are not included in the clockspring recall. This is a major safety issue with the airbag and horn not working.”
“Airbag non deployment after 2 service recalls. I don’t feel safe driving my children around in a car that is not equipped for safety. Fuel pump control module is not working probably even after service recall. Engine malfunctioning.”
“The airbag light went off in the instrument cluster. I hear what sounds like a disconnected cable rubbing against the steering wheel whenever I try to make a turn. All buttons in the steering wheel are non functional after the incident. Really concerned if the airbag won’t deploy and cause fatal or deadly injuries in case of crash. I don’t feel safe driving it in this condition.”
“My airbag light is on once again and I have only had the recall replaced once never had the second so some shop has scammed that they replaced it. I need it fixed”
“DRIVING THE CAR (WHICH WAS PURCHASED 6 MONTHS AGO FROM OUR LOCAL HONDA DEALERSHIP) HONKED THE HORN ON THE CAR COMING HOME FROM PICKING UP THE KIDS FROM SCHOOL. DRIVING THROUGH LOCAL STREETS AND ALL OF A SUDDEN THE AIR BAG SIGN CAME ON. NOW WHEN I TURN CAR ON IT STATES AIRBAG DEFECT AND NONE OF THE CONTROLS WORK ON THE STEERING WHEEL. THE CAR IS MY WIFE'S CAR AND SHE DRIVE MY TWO LITTLE BOYS IN IT DAILY. THE AIRBAG DEFECT WARNING IS CONCERNING ESPECIALLY READING OTHER OWNER'S COMPLAINTS IN REGARDS TO THIS ISSUES.”
