VOLKSWAGEN EUROVAN 2002 Electrical System Report #770401

VOLKSWAGEN EUROVAN 2002 car safety problem was reported on .VOLKSWAGEN EUROVAN 2002, manufactured by Volkswagen of America, Inc. had a problem with ELECTRICAL SYSTEM . THIS VEHICLE HAD PREVIOUSLY HAD MANY ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS AND OTHER DEFECTS, THOUGH THIS HAS BEEN THE WORST, THE MOST SCARY THING THAT HAPPENED WITH THIS CAR, AND THE THINK THAT COULD HAVE CAUSED A SERIOUS ACCIDENT, POTENTIALLY INJURING OR KILLING OURSELVES OR OTHERS. FORTUNATELY, IT HAPPENED AT A DESERTED INTERSECTION ON A RURAL ROAD. BUT THE ENGINE DID NOT STOP RACING, BUCKING, WITH THE CAR LURCHING FORWARD UNTIL THE KEY WAS TURNED SO THAT ENGINE STOPPED ALTOGETHER. UPON STARTING THE CAR AGAIN, THE SAME THING HAPPENED. WE THEREFORE HAD TO SIT AT THE INTERSECTION, PARTWAY OUT INTO TRAFFIC UNTIL TRYING AGAIN, THE ENGINE STARTED NORMALLY. WE HAVE CONMPLAINED ABOUT THIS OVER AND OVER AND ARE TOLD THAT THE ENGINE IS WORKING ACCORDING TO SPECIFICATIONS. I FORGOT TO INCLUDE THE DATE. IT WAS THURSDAY EVENING SEPTEMBER 26TH, 2002. WE WERE IN CANADA AND PREVIOUS PROBLEMS WITH THE CAR HAD YIELDED THE INFORMATION THAT WE COULD NOT GET SERVICE FOR OUR VEHICLE IN CANADA AS IT WAS NOT SOLD THERE. THUS, FAR FROM HOME, WE NEVERTHELESS HAD TO RETURN TO MILWAUKEE AFTER THE INCIDENT. WE HAVE DRIVEN THE CAR VERY LITTLE SINCE THAT DAY AND HAVE REPEATEDLY TRIED TO GET SOMEONE TO UNDERSTAND THAT THIS VEHICLE IS NOT SAFE TO DRIVE AND NOT SAFE TO BE ON THE ROAD. THE INCIDENT OCCURED FOLLOWING GOING DOWN A VERY STEEP HILL (A 12% GRADE AS I RECALL) IN LOW GEAR AND THEN SHIFTING BACK INTO DRIVE AND NEEDING TO COME TO A STOP AT A "T". IT WAS AT THE "T" THAT THIS OCCURRED. EVEN THOUGH NO PROBLEM HAS BEEN DIAGNOSED WHICH MIGHT HAVE LED TO THIS INCIDENT, IT OCCURRED ONCE! ONCE WAS ENOUGH. MIND YOU, WE WERE NEAR THE END OF A 24 DAY CAMPING TRIP AND WE HAD GONE UP AND DOWN MANY MOUNTAINS, USING THE LOW GEAR REPEATEDLY WITH SUCH A PROBLEM. IT COULD HAVE HAPPENED WHILE PASSING OR ON A MOUNTAIN CURVE. WE WANT THE CAR TAKEN OUT OF SERVICE IF NOTHING CAN BE EXPLAINED OR FIXED! DT.Vehicle Identification Number (VIN):WV2NB47062H. Volkswagen Eurovan 2002 problem was reported in MILWAUKEE, WI. Original Owner. Vehicle was purchased on 20021201. Vehicle was using ANTI-LOCK BRAKES.Vehicle was using Cruise Control.Volkswagen Eurovan 2002 drive type:FWD. FUEL SYSTEM:N/A. FUEL TYPE: GAS.

WE JUST EXPERIENCED A EXPENSIVE ($4500) PROBLEM WITH THE VOLKSWAGEN EUROVAN/WINNEBAGO RIALTA. ACTUALLY THE PROBLEM WAS RELATIVELY MINOR BUT BECAME MAJOR BECAUSE OF THE VW ENGINEERING. A SPROCKET THAT PART OF THE CAMSHAFT CHAIN DRIVE ASSEMBLY WAS WORN TO THE POINT THAT IT WAS ALMOST COMPLETELY ROUNDED. THIS CAUSED THE TIMING CHAIN TO JUMP. THE WARRANTY IS 50,000 MILES. THE PROBLEM STARTED AT 52, 000 MILES. I HAD IT REPAIRED AT 55,000 MILES. A LITTLE RESEARCH ON THE WEB SHOWS IT TO BE A KNOWN PROBLEM.

I WAS DRIVING MY 2002 VW EUROVAN OVER A CAUSEWAY GOING APPROXIMATELY 55 MPH. A WARNING LIGHT FLASHED SEVERAL TIMES THEN WENT OFF. I BELIEVE IT WAS A COOLANT LIGHT. THEN A STRANGE THUMP, THUMP, THUMP NOISE CAME FROM UNDER THE HOOD FOLLOWED BY SMOKE. SMELLED LIKE BURNING RUBBER AND SOUNDED LIKE A BELT BREAKING. I PULLED OFF AS SOON AS POSSIBLE (ANOTHER MINUTE OR 2) AND CAR DIED AS I COASTED OFF THE RAMP. I OPENED THE HOOD, BUT COULDN'T SEE PAST THE BLACK PLASTIC ENGINE COVER AND DIDN'T KNOW HOW TO REMOVE IT. AFTER SEVERAL PHONE CALLS, ABOUT 10 - 15 MINUTES LATER, SMOKE STARTED BILLOWING FROM UNDER HOOD. MY CHILDREN AND I DASHED AWAY FROM VEHICLE AND STOOD BY AND WATCHED IT BURN. CAR WAS IN GOOD REPAIR.

VOLKSWAGEN EUROVAN 2002 Power Train Automatic Transmission Report #10223706

VOLKSWAGEN EUROVAN 2002 car safety problem was reported on Apr 08, 2008.VOLKSWAGEN EUROVAN 2002, manufactured by VOLKSWAGEN OF AMERICA, INC had a problem with POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION . THIS CAR IS THE THIRD OF FOUR CARS, IN A TWO-DRIVER FAMILY. IT IS NOT DRIVEN FREQUENTLY. ONE DAY, WE NOTICED THAT THE CAR WOULD NOT RESPOND NORMALLY TO REVERSE GEAR: IT DID NOT LIKE ANY THROTTLE WHEN IN REVERSE, BUT SEEMED TO DRIVE O.K. WHEN IN DRIVE GEAR. THE NEXT TIME THAT WE DROVE IT, THE SAME THING HAPPENED, BUT THIS TIME, IT DID NOT RESPOND NORMALLY TO FORWARD DRIVE GEAR EITHER. I BACKED IT OUT OF MY DRIVEWAY SLOWLY, AND BEGAN TO DRIVE IT DOWN THE STREET. VERY QUICKLY I REALIZED THAT IT WAS NOT RESPONDING AND PARKED THE CAR ON THE STREET AND CALLED THE TOW-COMPANY TO HAVE IT TOWED TO THE DEALER. DEALER REPORTED THAT THE CAR HAD A BROKEN TRANSMISSION (ONLY 60,000 ORIGINAL MILES ON IT), AND THE REPAIR COST WAS $5700. WHILE THIS DID NOT CAUSE A SERIOUS ACCIDENT OR DEATH, IT DEFINITELY WOULD HAVE, HAD I IGNORED THE MATTER AND GOTTEN ON THE FREEWAY. I CONTACTED SEVERAL TRANSMISSION SHOPS AND THEY ALL SAID THAT THEY WILL NOT REPAIR THE TRANSMISSION BECAUSE IT WAS TOO COMPLICATED. ONE VW SPECIALIST EVEN SAID THAT HE HAD SEEN THIS EXACT PROBLEM (LOW MILES, TRANSMISSION FAILURE) ON OTHER SIMILAR MODELS. HE INDICATED THAT THE TRANSMISSION USED IN THIS LARGE VAN WAS THE SAME AS THAT USED IN THE VW JETTA (SMALL SEDAN). I THEN RESEARCHED TO SEE OF OTHER SIMILAR CARS HAD FAILED TRANSMISSION AND SAW ONE ON EBAY WITH EXACT SAME YEAR/MODEL WITH A FAILED TRANSMISSION. I STRONGLY BELIEVE THIS IS A DESIGN FLAW AND A POTENTIAL DANGER FOR ANYONE WHO CONTINUES TO DRIVE THIS CAR ON THE FREEWAYS. I BELIEVE IF ANYONE HAD ACCESS TO THE VW STATISTICS ON TRANSMISSION FAILURES ON THIS CAR, THEY WOULD SEE A HIGH PERCENTAGE OF FAILURES AT LOW MILES. PERHAPS THIS IS THE REASON WHY VW STOPPED BUILDING THIS CAR AFTER 2002! *TR.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 60886 miles. Vehicle Identification Number (VIN):WV2NB47082H.

I WAS DRIVING ON I-94 NORTH OF DETROIT WHEN I EXPERIENCED A MAJOR SHAKING OF THE VEHICLE. I WAS ABLE TO MAINTAIN CONTROL AND AS I HIT THE BRAKES THE VEHICLE THE SHAKING DECREASED. IT WAS A SCARY EXPERIENCE BUT AFTER THE INITIAL SHOCK I WAS ABLE TO MAINTAIN CONTROL. HAD THE TIRE BLOWN OUT THE OUTCOME MIGHT HAVE BEEN CATASTROPHIC. UPON INVESTIGATION IT WAS FOUND THAT THE REAR RIGHT TIRE HAD A MAJOR DISTORTION. IN ONE AREA OF THE TREAD, ONE SIDE OF THE TREAD PROTRUDED BY ABOUT ONE INCH. A TIRE DEALER LATER DIAGNOSED IT AS A ¿BROKEN BELT¿. THE TIRE WHICH IS RATED AT 70# PSI FOR MAXIMUM LOAD WAS INFLATED TO 65# (THE VEHICLE MANUFACTURER RECOMMENDS 60#).

VOLKSWAGEN EUROVAN 2002 Tires Report #10290750

VOLKSWAGEN EUROVAN 2002 car safety problem was reported on July 30, 2009.VOLKSWAGEN EUROVAN 2002, manufactured by VOLKSWAGEN OF AMERICA, INC had a problem with TIRES . OUR 2002 VW EUROVAN WAS PURCHASED USED AT THE END OF JULY, 2009 FROM PACIFIC VW IN HAWTHORNE, CA. I WAS TOLD THE VAN WENT THROUGH AN EXTENSIVE TEST AND REPAIR PROCESS AND I ALSO UNDERSTAND THAT IT IS A USED VEHICLE. I DID PURCHASE A ¿SILVER¿ 2 YEAR/24,000 MILE WARRANTY FOR $1,800. I AM CONCERNED THAT THE TIRES THAT WERE ON THE VEHICLE WHEN SOLD TO ME, WHICH SEEMED TO BE BRAND NEW, DO NOT MEET THE MANUFACTURERS STANDARDS OF 225/60R16/RF 102H AND WERE INSTEAD 225/60R16/RF 97T. AFTER DOING SOME RESEARCH, I LEARNED THAT THE TIRES ON THE VEHICLE ARE LITERALLY NOT STRONG ENOUGH TO HOLD THE WEIGHT OF THE VEHICLE. COSTCO AND OTHER TIRE FACILITIES WILL NOT SERVICE THESE TIRES AS THEY ARE NOT THE RIGHT ONES FOR THE VEHICLE. WE HAVE SINCE PURCHASED THE APPROPRIATE LOAD RATED TIRES FOR THE VEHICLE, BUT ARE CONCERNED THAT A DEALER LIKE PACIFIC VW IS SELLING VEHICLES WITH TIRES THAT MIGHT CAUSE SERIOUS DAMAGE OR DEATH TO THOSE THAT PURCHASE FROM THEM. VW CLEARLY MARKS THE REQUIRED LOAD RATING ON THE VEHICLE AND THE IN THE OWNERS MANUAL AS WELL. MY FAMILY AND I ARE LUCKY WE FIGURED OUT THE ERROR BEFORE A SERIOUS ACCIDENT. *TR THANK YOU, -TODD WARDEN .Vehicle Identification Number (VIN):WV2NB470X2H.

VOLKSWAGEN EUROVAN 2002 car safety problem was reported on Jan 15, 2009.VOLKSWAGEN EUROVAN 2002, manufactured by VOLKSWAGEN OF AMERICA, INC had a problem with POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION . FIRST NOTICED A PROBLEM WITH OUR 2002 EUROVAN WHEN DRIVING UP A RESIDENTIAL STREET. THE FRONT END FELT AS IF IT WAS BUCKING/BOUNCING, SO WE PULLED OFF THE SIDE OF THE ROAD TO INSPECT THE VEHICLE. DID NOT FIND ANY PROBLEMS, BUT WHEN WE TRIED DRIVING OFF, THE TRANSMISSION STARTED SLIPPING IN 1ST AND 2ND GEARS SO BADLY THAT THE FRONT END RATTLED LOUDLY AND VIOLENTLY. LUCKILY FOR US, WE WERE ONLY A BLOCK AWAY FROM HOME. THE NEXT MORNING, I DROVE THE CAR AND NOTICED THAT THE SLIPPING HAD CEASED SO I DECIDED TO DRIVE IT TO OUR VW DEALERSHIP AND AS I WAS DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY (IN MORNING TRAFFIC), THE TRANSMISSION FAILED AND WAS STUCK UNTIL THE TRANSMISSION COOLED DOWN ENOUGH TO PULL OFF THE SIDE. ALL TRANSMISSION SERVICES HAVE BEEN COMPLETED AS PER SCHEDULE AND NOW HAVE TO PAY AROUND $5,500 TO REPLACE IT. NO INDEPENDENT WILL TOUCH THIS THING AND THE FACTORY WARRANTY ON A NEW TRANSMISSION IS ONLY GOOD FOR 12 MONTHS/12K MILES. NICE TO SEE THAT VOLKSWAGEN WILL STICK BY ITS PRODUCT! NOT!!!! SO NOW THE EUROVAN SITS IN MY DRIVEWAY, UNTIL SUCH TIME THAT WE CAN AFFORD TO PUT IN A NEW TRANSMISSION OR GET SOMEONE TO PURCHASE THE VEHICLE WITH A BUSTED TRANSMISSION. *TR.Mileage was 126000 miles.

VOLKSWAGEN EUROVAN 2002 car safety problem was reported on Aug 01, 2010.VOLKSWAGEN EUROVAN 2002, manufactured by VOLKSWAGEN OF AMERICA, INC had a problem with ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:COOLING SYSTEM . FOR THE SECOND TIME THE COOLING FAN ASSEMBLY ON MY VOLKSWAGEN VANAGON (WINNEBAGO RIALTA CONVERSION) HAS FAILED CATASTROPHICALLY. THE FAN BLADE SHATTERED BOTH TIMES LEAVING ME STRANDED ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD WHEN THE VAN BEGAN SHAKING VIOLENTLY. VOLKSWAGEN REFUSED TO OFFER ANY ASSISTANCE WHATSOEVER. I NOTICE THAT YOU HAVE AN OPEN INVESTIGATION ON THIS ISSUE. I WOULD LIKE TO JOIN THAT INVESTIGATION AS A CO-COMPLAINANT. IN BOTH CASES THIS HAPPENED ON ONE OF THE HOTTEST DAYS OF THE YEAR. IN ALABAMA, THIS TIME , THE HEAT INDEX WAS OVER 110 DEGREES. THE PREVIOUS TIME WAS IN TENNESSEE WHEN THE HEAT INDEX WAS ALSO OVER 100 DEGREES, AND 3 OF MY GRANDCHILDREN WERE IN THE CAR WITH ME. IN BOTH CASES I WAS STRANDED WITH PASSENGERS ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. WHILE THIS IS NOT THE SAME AS A BRAKE FAILURE, IT CLEARLY REPRESENTS A MANUFACTURING AND/OR DESIGN DEFECT THAT COULD HAVE SERIOUS CONSEQUENCES. VOLKSWAGEN IS OF COURSE THE SOLE SUPPLIER OF THE NECESSARY PARTS AND REFUSES TO DISCUSS ANY POTENTIAL PROBLEMS OTHER THAN TO SAY " NO ONE CAN PREDICT THE LIFE OF A PART ", WHICH IS NEITHER TRUE NOR RELEVANT. A CURSORY SEARCH OF THE INTERNET TURNED UP A HOST OF SIMILAR COMPLAINTS - ALL OF WHICH VW REFUSED TO AMELIORATE IN ANY WAY. I APPRECIATE YOUR ATTENTION TO THIS PROBLEM ON BEHALF OF AMERICAN CONSUMERS. THANK YOU. *TR.Mileage was 70000 miles. Vehicle Identification Number (VIN):WV2EB47012H.
