VOLKSWAGEN GOLF 2003 car safety problem was reported on Dec 20, 2008.VOLKSWAGEN GOLF 2003, manufactured by VOLKSWAGEN OF AMERICA, INC had a problem with AIR BAGS . 2003 vw golf gl-i bought new & am the only driver of it. and just over 80,000 miles, the airbag warning light came on. i had to drive it around for over a couple of weeks before any of the vw dealerships would schedule me an appointment to spend a couple of minutes to connect their hand-held diagnostic tool to find out what the exact cause of turning on this light was. (i went to 3 separate dealerships in 3 different cities.) it turned out to be a defective seatbelt latch sensor. even though the seatbelt light turned off indicating it was latched, the same latch also determines independently on whether or not to enable the airbags. i just had this part replaced today-12/20/08-at a cost of over $430. i found out that when the latch "thinks" the seatbelt is not connected, that it disables all of the 6 airbags, making the car that i thought i had at least most of the airbags still functioning, completely airbag-less. this is a severe safety issue, by vw's manufacture design to turn off all airbags based on a seatbelt latch, not a malfunctioning airbag. if the latch is giving valid feed back to turn off the seatbelt light, then there is no reason to have a separate contact in this latch for the airbags that disables all of the airbags. safety parts like airbags should also be required to have the extended manufacturer's warranty like the seatbelts themselves & the emission equipment like the catalytic converter, which is around 150000 miles, isn't it? this is an extremely poor & dangerous design, to turn off all airbags even though there is nothing wrong with them. by the time the airbag light comes on to when owners can get it serviced, the owners unknowingly are driving in an unsafe vehicle that had its working airbags completely turned off because of a seatbelt latch switch that was working well enough to tell the seatbelt light on the dashboard to turn off. this alone should be enough to keep all of the working airbags functioning. *tr.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 80200 miles.

VOLKSWAGEN GOLF 2003 car safety problem was reported on Jan 01, 2007.VOLKSWAGEN GOLF 2003, manufactured by Volkswagen Group of America, Inc. had a problem with AIR BAGS . ditto on the "nhtsa id number: 10252376". my 2003 base model golf's airbags were turned off (airbag light on), and the issue was one of the 3 sensors in the driver's seatbelt latch stopped working. it's been many years ago (i bought it new), and i don't remember what year that was, but i did contact vw on this, and believe i also sent an e-mail to both nhtsa & iihs on this. this is an inexcusable design (gm is having a similar issue with its ignition switch & airbags being turned off). the seatbelt latch was replaced, and has been working fine for years now. it currently has 167,000+ miles on it. it does have some positives. the front brakes have never been replaced, and didn't have to replace the rear brakes until 90,000. the clutch has never been replaced, and still works good (even with a ton of stop-n-go traffic). there should be a legal requirement that all of the airbags are always on, no matter what, when the vehicle is moving, whether or not the ignition is on, the seatbelts are latch, etc. also, there should be a legal requirement that all rear turn signal lights must be bright orange, not red. this is a safety issue. a bright orange light stands out as a turn signal, whereas a blinking red light could be the driver tapping on the brakes. not easy to tell when you can only see one corner of a vehicle..0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Volkswagen Golf 2003 problem was reported in EVERETT, WA.

Volkswagen Golf 2003 Seat Belts

Volkswagen Golf 2003 Seat Belts Review #10641837

VOLKSWAGEN GOLF 2003 car safety problem was reported on Jan 01, 2007.VOLKSWAGEN GOLF 2003, manufactured by Volkswagen Group of America, Inc. had a problem with SEAT BELTS . ditto on the "nhtsa id number: 10252376". my 2003 base model golf's airbags were turned off (airbag light on), and the issue was one of the 3 sensors in the driver's seatbelt latch stopped working. it's been many years ago (i bought it new), and i don't remember what year that was, but i did contact vw on this, and believe i also sent an e-mail to both nhtsa & iihs on this. this is an inexcusable design (gm is having a similar issue with its ignition switch & airbags being turned off). the seatbelt latch was replaced, and has been working fine for years now. it currently has 167,000+ miles on it. it does have some positives. the front brakes have never been replaced, and didn't have to replace the rear brakes until 90,000. the clutch has never been replaced, and still works good (even with a ton of stop-n-go traffic). there should be a legal requirement that all of the airbags are always on, no matter what, when the vehicle is moving, whether or not the ignition is on, the seatbelts are latch, etc. also, there should be a legal requirement that all rear turn signal lights must be bright orange, not red. this is a safety issue. a bright orange light stands out as a turn signal, whereas a blinking red light could be the driver tapping on the brakes. not easy to tell when you can only see one corner of a vehicle..0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Volkswagen Golf 2003 problem was reported in EVERETT, WA. Vehicle was not using ANTI-LOCK BRAKES. Vehicle was not using Cruise Control.
