VOLKSWAGEN JETTA 2011 car safety problem was reported on Dec 17, 2010.VOLKSWAGEN JETTA 2011, manufactured by VOLKSWAGEN OF AMERICA, INC had a problem with FUEL SYSTEM, DIESEL . 2011 vw diesel jetta six speed manual. the computer is programmed to shut the engine off at about 750 rpm this number appears to be arbitrary or possibly picked for some fuel economy tradeoff. the problem is that this causes some very dangerous conditions in traffic. normally a diesel can be brought down to nearly zero and still power up and out of a stop. gas engines are not so good at this but to some extent this is an engine condition that should be anticipated and successfully recovered from. vw has taken the other road. if one does not rev the engine excessively, even on very slight inclines, the computer lets you get about ten feet into the intersection and turns the engine off. the guy behind you has to slam on his breaks if he is looking (your brake lights are off because you are not using them to stop.) or if he is looking at his left turn lane, his phone or whatever, pow. or you get half into an intersection crossing from the stop sign and get dropped in the middle of the road until you can go through the evolution of events allowing a restart. restart evolution also contributes to the danger as it takes so long. i have driven manual transmissions exclusively for 40 licensed driving years and a few years prior to that on the farm. one should not have to drive with one's heel on the top of the gas pedal, but over-revving the engine is the only way to safely start out from a stop sign. this should never have gotten past the engineers. unless of course they are not guys who enjoy driving. even the dealer's master mechanics are puzzled that they stall it every time they try to drive it. *tr.Mileage was 20000 miles.

Volkswagen Jetta 2011 Steering Review #10422300

VOLKSWAGEN JETTA 2011 car safety problem was reported on Aug 26, 2011.VOLKSWAGEN JETTA 2011, manufactured by VOLKSWAGEN OF AMERICA, INC had a problem with STEERING . i know this sounds ridiculous but i've driven on many road trips and this has never happened until this vehicle, and it's painful. but here it is: leather-wrapped steering wheel causes calluses at a highly unusual rate on longer drives. (i have been able to drive for 12 hours on multiple occasions without issue. after driving only three and a half hours steadily, my hands hurt all over.) it's important to note that the leather isn't causing this - the stitching on the inside is far too raised up on the inside part around the entire 'wheel' of the steering wheel. it is also right behind the left and right 'handles' where you can hold the wheel, so anywhere you hold it, you basically are adversely affected. i believe this is a safety issue because if it's not comfortable at all to hold the steering wheel, drivers may be inclined to hold the wheel more loosely or hold the wheel even less/let go when they believe it is "safe" ... which may lead to crashes, injury, or death, due to developing pain in the hands/fingers because of the way this steering wheel has been designed. *tt .Mileage was 10100 miles.

Volkswagen Jetta 2011 Air Bags Side/window Review #10422314

VOLKSWAGEN JETTA 2011 car safety problem was reported on Aug 19, 2011.VOLKSWAGEN JETTA 2011, manufactured by VOLKSWAGEN OF AMERICA, INC had a problem with AIR BAGS:SIDE/WINDOW . driving on the interstate i came to the end of some scarified pavement. when i went across the end of the scarified pavement, the right side airbags went off. the dealer inspects under the car and finds a small scratch on the trailing arm mount and says the car was bottomed. only problem is the scratch is not on the bottom of the mount and is even above the parking brake cable which routes beneath the mount. the parking brake cable does not have any damage or scratches on it. also, why wouldn?t the front airbags go off instead of the side? if the car had bottomed on the pavement or on the lip of the pavement where the scarified pavement ended, the mark on the trailing arm mount would have damage from the initial point of contact and scrape along the leading edge of the mount until whatever hit it had cleared under the mount and it would have looked a lot worse. anyway the dealer wants $4000 to fix the airbags, not including a new seat cover since they don?t manufacture it anymore. if you want a picture of the impact mark let me know. it?s very miniscule. also, after the airbag deployment, there were not any tire, rim, or alignment problems. in comparison, in my 1997 golf, my son hit a bad pothole last spring that popped the tire, bent the alloy rim, and whacked the alignment but the airbag did not go off. if you need any other information feel free to contact me. *tt.Mileage was 107000 miles.

VOLKSWAGEN JETTA 2011 car safety problem was reported on Nov 01, 2011.VOLKSWAGEN JETTA 2011, manufactured by VOLKSWAGEN OF AMERICA, INC had a problem with FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE . bought my jetta tdi new 4 months ago. filled up with diesel on a monday morning and had driven approximately 70 miles before i had this problem. was driving home tuesday (at 60mph) when suddenly lost acceleration and glow plug light started flashing. was able to limp to a vw dealership about 1 mile back but car would not accelerate above 35mph. the next day the dealership gave the diagnosis of water in the diesel and told me "everything that the diesel had touched" would have to be replaced (fuel tank, lines, filter, etc.) .they said the vw warranty would pay for it this one time but if it happened again i would be responsible for the over $5000 cost. when i asked how i could avoid this in the future i was told i just needed to purchase my diesel from a "reputable" place. (seriously!!! do they think i am buying "bubba's home brewed biodiesel" on the side of the road or something???) i reported to the texas dept of agriculture that the vw dealership was claiming the diesel i had purchased on monday had water in it. the tda promptly came out and investigated the station where i purchase fuel and reported to me that they found nothing wrong with the diesel. this sounds to me like a major oversight on the part of vw if there is no way to avoid such a potentially dangerous and costly problem. i traded a much nicer and more comfortable suv for this jetta in an attempt to save $$$ on fuel. i think i've made a huge mistake. *tr.Mileage was 5680 miles.

VOLKSWAGEN JETTA 2011 car safety problem was reported on Feb 13, 2012.VOLKSWAGEN JETTA 2011, manufactured by VOLKSWAGEN OF AMERICA, INC had a problem with FUEL SYSTEM, DIESEL . i was operating the car on a highway when the car lost all power in traffic. i was lucky that i was able to get to the side of the road without a serious incident occurring. i was a bit shaken as the car just totally failed in traffic. the cause according to the dealer is catastrophic failure of the injector pump (diesel). dealer informed me that the injector pump, injectors, injector lines, primary fuel lines, primary fuel pump, and the fuel tank all had to be replaced because the injector pump totally came apart and distributed metal throughout the fuel system. this car has less than 21k on it. dealer admitted that the injector pumps are of questionable quality and there is a history of failure due to inferior parts in the pumps. dealer said that the new pump is upgraded and after the entire fuel system is replaced the car will be trouble free. dealer also noted that the fuel pumps are designed to operate on european diesel which contains sulfur for lubricity. us diesel which has low sulfur is destroying the pumps. seems as though a total recall should be ordered to remove these bad injector pumps. dealer stated the total cost of the work in excess of 10k which will be paid by vw at no cost to me. *tr.Mileage was 20850 miles.

VOLKSWAGEN JETTA 2011 car safety problem was reported on Nov 26, 2012.VOLKSWAGEN JETTA 2011, manufactured by Volkswagen of America, Inc. had a problem with POWER TRAIN . on monday, november 26th i was driving my wife in our 2011 volkswagen jetta tdi diesel from our vacation property in salyer, california (trinity county) to our home in arcata, california (humboldt county), a distance of 45 miles along route 299. 299 is a two lane highway that has occasional passing lanes and has a posted speed of 55 mph. approximately 15 miles into the trip, i attempted to pass a slow moving vehicle by means one of these passing lanes. as i pulled into the passing lane, the jetta accelerated smoothly from 45 mph to approximately 60 mph, when it suddenly lost power and began to decelerate rapidly, eventually down to approximately 20 mph, although the engine was roaring at a very high level of rpm?s as this deceleration occurred. this event created an extremely dangerous situation: the passing lane is of limited length and the passing maneuver needed to be completed before it ended because there was oncoming traffic. immediately behind the jetta was a pickup truck that had also pulled into the passing lane. as the deceleration occurred, the pickup truck came within inches of colliding with the rear of the jetta. fortunately, i was able to get the car to safety at the shoulder of the road. thereafter the car could only be driven in 1st gear and at only at a very slow speed. i called volkswagen of american and they made arrangements to tow the jetta to the nearest dealer, redding volkswagen, located in redding california. this is the second time an event like this has occurred since i purchased the jetta on july 10, 2011. in april 2012, as i pulled onto the main street in susanville california and began accelerating from a stop to approximately 35 mph, the jetta suddenly and rapidly decelerated. on both occasions the rapid deceleration occurred without any warning lights. *tr.Mileage was 19800 miles.

VOLKSWAGEN JETTA 2011 car safety problem was reported on Oct 26, 2012.VOLKSWAGEN JETTA 2011, manufactured by Volkswagen of America, Inc. had a problem with COMMUNICATIONS:HORN ASSEMBLY . starting the end of october, 2012 my horn started working only intermittently. on a couple of occasions i have had people pulling into my lane without looking, and i tried to honk to let them know i was there, yet the horn would not work. i had to brake hard, or swerve abruptly to avoid being hit. it works intermittently when i am locking the car with the alarm also. this is not associated with the fuse problem the cars were recalled for earlier. the horn would quit working all together if the fuse went bad. sometimes the horn works, and sometimes it doesn't. i have logged onto several on-line forums for volkswagen owners, such as www.tdi.club and noticed that others with the same car are having the same problem. i took it to volkswagen to have it fixed, and they said they found nothing wrong. the horn happened to be working that morning. there is obviously a defective part(s) problem if many are experiencing the issue. it is definitely a safety issue as the loss of the horn at the wrong time has almost caused me to have some accidents. please help! *tr.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 39000 miles.

VOLKSWAGEN JETTA 2011 car safety problem was reported on Jan 02, 2012.VOLKSWAGEN JETTA 2011, manufactured by Volkswagen of America, Inc. had a problem with FUEL SYSTEM, DIESEL . approximately a year ago, my engine began to give a clear sense of the car shuddering or rocking back and forth. while sometimes the feeling would occur even when stopped at a light, the vast majority of the time this occurred while i was driving at consistent low speeds. in almost all cases, i was attempting to maintain a consistent speed around either 13pmh or 30 mph. eventually, i found the rocking motion very easy to reproduce. i'd set the car to 30 mph via cruise control and drive down a straight road with very slight upward and downward slopes. while it happens even on flat ground, i found that a slight decline is most likely to reproduce the feeling. my best guess is that there's something about the way the fuel supply system/transmission is trying to determine whether or not diesel needs to be supplied to the engine. the fuel supply system seems to almost cut out because giving diesel would produce a speed too high, and then it comes back on suddenly, because giving it no diesel would cause the car to slow too much. while sometimes this is simply a nuisance, i have had on many occasions felt that it was a genuine safety hazard since i couldn't predict how the engine would react. this in combination with overly strong engine break when letting off of the accelerator and delayed acceleration when stepping on the peddle that can cause inconsistencies and safety hazards when maneuvering in stop and go traffic on the highway. i've mentioned this problem every single time i've taken my car in for it's regularly scheduled maintenance. the vehicle has a diesel dsg engine, and as i've been told by service technicians and representatives, some of the things like strong engine breaking are associated with this type of engine. however, the car's rocking motion certainly goes beyond anything that could realistically be considered normal and safe. *tr.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 6000 miles.

VOLKSWAGEN JETTA 2011 car safety problem was reported on July 28, 2013.VOLKSWAGEN JETTA 2011, manufactured by Volkswagen of America, Inc. had a problem with ELECTRICAL SYSTEM . occasionally, the rear door on passenger side wont open even though i unlock the door with remote key. i have found in the vw consumer forum that this is not only my car's issue, but many vw jetta owners are having the same issue. i always should get inside from other door and open the applicable from inside. this is happening too often so it is being common for me to open the door for my kid who usually sits in the back. if there is any accident and whether policeman or fireman should open the door from outside, this problem can cause severe delay on rescue the passenger who sits in the back, usually children because the door is not being opened by anyhow from outside. i think vw should recall this problem. *tr.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 30000 miles.

VOLKSWAGEN JETTA 2011 car safety problem was reported on Sept 04, 2013.VOLKSWAGEN JETTA 2011, manufactured by Volkswagen of America, Inc. had a problem with FUEL SYSTEM, DIESEL . while driving i suddenly lost all power to the engine of my 2011 jetta tdi. under warranty i had my car towed to the vw dealership. i was told the entire fuel system was destroyed by the high pressure fuel pump, and it was possibly be due to the diesel i used, being dirty or otherwise contaminated. i had all my receipts for diesel fill-ups from the same station, and it was listed on the vw.com website as a location for diesel. the tank was supposedly emptied and filtered during the repair and i was not informed of contamination. on reading further i note that many tdi owners have had the same problem with no acknowledgement from vw that this is a fuel pump problem, not a customer misuse of diesel fuel. this is a potentially dangerous situation. i was starting out from a red light and was able to steer the car to the right lane and then the shoulder. the danger on a busy roadway could be lethal. read edmonds.com and other jetta owner blogs and note the exact same incidents occurring. with the exploding interest in diesel cars for fuel economy, this situation needs evaluation. *tr.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 23800 miles.

VOLKSWAGEN JETTA 2011 car safety problem was reported on Jan 05, 2014.VOLKSWAGEN JETTA 2011, manufactured by Volkswagen of America, Inc. had a problem with VISIBILITY/WIPER . while driving the 2011 vw jetta on 1/5/14 during rain showers i switched the wipers on (which i had previously used aprox 5 mins before) & nothing happened, then i realized that the turn signals were also not working including the hazard flashers.. upon reaching my home at reduced speeds in order to safely make it home i attempted to make the needed repair to resolve the issue, thinking the issue was a blown fuse, but after further investigation no blown fuses are present & at the current time vw service dept. denies that any part of the electrical system is faulty & although the problem is still currently not fixed. along with other electrical functions such as the power windows & door locks not functioning due to this electrical malfunction the vehicle will not crank & start using the ignition switch. i feel this problem is a safety issue that vw needs to address & offer a recall before such a malfunction results in a fatal incident due to not being able to clearly see the roadway during rainy conditions. *tr.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 66546 miles.

VOLKSWAGEN JETTA 2011 car safety problem was reported on June 23, 2014.VOLKSWAGEN JETTA 2011, manufactured by Volkswagen of America, Inc. had a problem with FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM . glow plug light started blinking, then the engine light came on. shifting became erratic. pulled into a service station, and once the vehicle was turned off, it wouldn't restart. after basic checks, the fuel pump was pulled for inspection and metal shavings were found. in researching the repair, the independent station suggested putting things back together, and having it towed to the dealer, as it was suspected to be a known issue with the bosch high pressure fuel pump. in fact it was, and while the car was two months out of warranty, the dealer went ahead and covered the repair under the unrelated drivetrain warranty. i consider myself incredibly lucky that this wasn't 15 minutes earlier, when i was traveling at highway speeds, on an incredibly full freeway. it could've been a major accident if i had suddenly lost power. considering there are entire websites devoted to tracking this issue, i can't believe that there hasn't been a recall..0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 30515 miles.

VOLKSWAGEN JETTA 2011 car safety problem was reported on July 15, 2014.VOLKSWAGEN JETTA 2011, manufactured by Volkswagen of America, Inc. had a problem with ELECTRICAL SYSTEM . i bought a 2011 jetta in february 2011. today, i am told by the dealer that 'some wires' located under the spark plugs are short-circuiting and need to be replaced at a cost of $830 + tax. now, why are there 'some wires' under the spark plugs that are not sufficiently insulated? and, why are 'some wires' under the spark plugs anyway? i was going down i-24 at 55 mph and the car 'cut off'! the only thing that saved my life is that it was rush hour and the traffic was bumper to bumper. i was afraid to drive the car to the dealership and had to have it towed. i could have been killed!!! such a design of 'some wires' under the spark plugs is not good craftsmanship or professional design. the vehicle is not even paid for and i have to replace 'some wires' under the spark plugs already. i think this should be a recall item because of the possibility of the vehicle cutting off when driving at full speed, in traffic on a major highway. everyone with a 2011 jetta needs to be made aware of the possibility of this same 'instant shut down of engine' happening to them. there was no warning such as the engine light coming on or the car stalling when trying to start the engine. in fact, some one may be disillusioned when car restarts and drives like there is nothing to it!!! it took the dealer 2-days to fine the problem so everyone needs to be made aware of this gross danger!!.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 32000 miles.

(these problems include radio staying on when car is completely off, and after manually switching it off, it then will turn back on while the car is still off (even though the car will not start and i have to use the long hold lock function to roll windows up). the car also will reopen trunk upon close, flash passenger seat belt warnings when the seat is empty, not display gear when moving, not display mileage/fuel level while simultaneously listing mileage range from selected screen, etc. problems are worse in extreme weather. i have attempted to have the problems fixed multiple times to no avail. recently, i have taken the car in several times to have service light diagnosed. dealer reset light each time without bothering to check the source. problem progressed to engine not starting, sluggish and jerky acceleration, lurching stops, and, most recently, shutting off while driving. this is absolutely a manufacturer issue, and i am planning to pursue all options available to rectify. not only has volkswagen produced an unsafe vehicle, but they are also aware of these problems and make a great effort to avoid dealing with them..0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 500 miles.

VOLKSWAGEN JETTA 2011 car safety problem was reported on Apr 30, 2011.VOLKSWAGEN JETTA 2011, manufactured by Volkswagen Group of America, Inc. had a problem with POWER TRAIN . this 2011 vw sportwagen tdi (diesel)would easily stall in first gear. since the first test drive we were told at the dealership, this manual transmission takes getting used to. i have a friend who owns a 2011 golf tdi with a similar issue. however, even though i became more accustomed to driving it, i would still stall in first gear...sometimes in intersections. i mentioned this to the service advisor, during several service visits and i was told it was just the way these cars are. every time a service advisor would test drive my car they'd stall it. they never looked into it. at 89,000 the dual mass flywheel had to be replaced. at this point the car was out of warranty. i went to and independent mechanic (that i trusted)and asked him to not only replace the dual mass flywheel, but the clutch plate and throw out bearing as well. he said the clutch plate and throw out bearing looked fine. i said since we have this apart i don't want to take any chances. since replacing the parts with original vw parts it drives like a normal manual transmission car should...i no longer stall this car in 1st gear. one can check on line and see other people are having similar problems. besides the expense it is also dangerous. i'm surprised there isn't a recall on this issue. on september 19th i spoke to the service manager at flynn vw, and asked his advice about dealing with vw and he reiterated that the manual transmissions on the diesels (tdi) were like that. he stated he still stalls when driving the diesel vws. however he said the gas engines didn't seem to stall like the diesels..0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 20 miles.

VOLKSWAGEN JETTA 2011 car safety problem was reported on Nov 29, 2014.VOLKSWAGEN JETTA 2011, manufactured by Volkswagen Group of America, Inc. had a problem with FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM . was driving my car on a 2 lane road when it bucked as if it had a cylinder go dead for just a second. note: there is no warning when this is or does happen. it just does it.... but it was hit an miss. i looked at the dash pannel and seen the glow plug light flashing, check engine light was on and the message center service engine now. i was 40 miles from the closest vw dealer. so, i headed to the closest auto parts shop to see the codes it had produced. p1007, p0088 and p0087 are the ones i remembered. the car was running but obviously not good. it lacked any power,could barely pull itself up a hill unless you down shifted. if finally died at a intersection and would not restart. i got my truck and trailer and towed it to the dealer who stated it had suffered high pressure fuel pump catistrophic failure.... when they called they stated it was good and bad news. bad news it was going to be 2-3 weeks in the shop. good news is, there is so much damage (6500.00) worth that vw is paying for all the repairs plus i have a loaner car. the whole fuel systems has to be replaced. 1 in tank fuel pump and pre high pressure fuel pump and the primary hpfp the one that self imploded the injectors, and all the fuel lines and filters. reason is the metal parts that floated thru the system could block any part of the fuel system or be hung up and if so, could return to the fuel tank and be pumped back in. with such close tolerances any thing could inturn re-destroy the system so total replacement is required. this was the first time in 35 years i was left on the side of the road. thanks vw corporation for owning up to this issue and completing the repairs..0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 68500 miles.

VOLKSWAGEN JETTA 2011 car safety problem was reported on Dec 10, 2014.VOLKSWAGEN JETTA 2011, manufactured by Volkswagen Group of America, Inc. had a problem with EXTERIOR LIGHTING . headlights, brake lights, turn signals and license plate lights all went out at the same time while driving at night with a toddler in the car. numerous warnings flashed on the car. tracked down the problem to a melted fuse connection on the fuse plate in the engine compartment, next to the battery. the fuse (f16) was also melted. i replaced the fuse and eveything is now working, but since the plate is still melted, i'm concerned the issue will reoccur. i called vw and apparently there is a service action (97am) to fix this exact issue for jetta sedans and gtis but not jetta sportwagens. since i'm having the same issue, i believe that this service action should be extended to 2011 jetta sportwagens as well..0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 37000 miles.
