Volkswagen Tiguan 2010 Service Brakes, Hydraulic Review #10386198

VOLKSWAGEN TIGUAN 2010 car safety problem was reported on June 23, 2010.VOLKSWAGEN TIGUAN 2010, manufactured by VOLKSWAGEN OF AMERICA, INC had a problem with SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC . problem started within two weeks of leasing-going on nine months now. after first time, i immediately began to keep tremendous space between me and the car ahead of me. highly unpredictable undetectable problem..brakes lose power brakes feature as noted by driving done by myself (more than 20 times), my car salesman (more than 3 times) and a bbb test drive. brakes get stiff, must push harder to get vehicle to stop creating greater stopping distance. vw tech ticket technology shows no problem..so no repair done, but there is a problem. since undetectable, i'm concerned about a total brake failure. my bbb resolution..give back my down payment, payments made-to-date so i can get out of the unsafe car. bbb ruling..vw is to fix the brakes, then i drive it 30 days to see if problem is corrected. that ruling is unsafe, unrealistic and irrational-keeps me and others at risk. at the bbb hearing, vw rep stated that brakes will be repaired once a problem is duplicated and recognized as a problem. their technology can't do that and yet driving shows a problem. now vw wants audi to inspect vehicle and do a repair. audi is a vw division and most likely would use the same test equipment. how can vw fix a problem about which they know nothing? this problem could also be computer related. vw offered me a 10% off any vw vehicle using my car as a trade-in. my dealership doesn't want the car due to this problem. to my shock, vw said the offer is good at any vw dealership..basically telling me to lie about the problem. i won't do that to any dealership. the car puts lives at risk. at this time, nothing has been done to correct the problem. vw has yet to duplicate/recognize it as a problem and is unable to fix it. so wrong on a humanistic level. vw should buy back this car at full purchase price with all my money refunded to me. the consequence of this is i am stuck with a car i can't trade-in and vw can't fix. vw doesn't care about safey as they say they do, they only care about money. *tr.Vehicle Identification Number (VIN):WVGBV7AX4AW.

VOLKSWAGEN TIGUAN 2010 car safety problem was reported on June 25, 2013.VOLKSWAGEN TIGUAN 2010, manufactured by Volkswagen of America, Inc. had a problem with ELECTRICAL SYSTEM . i started up the car and multiple dash warnings then went off. the epc light, check engine light and the head lamps warnings all turned on. i then popped the hood and opened up the fuse box to make sure the fuses were seated correctly. upon checking the fuses i noticed the box itself was melted and scorched meaning there had been fire at some point under the hood. i then took my volkswagen to the closest vw dealership service station. it cost $400 (michigan) to replace the fuse box, also leaving me questioning if this will happen again. after some investigation online i found that this is not rare. the vw dealership that did the repair stated that this was the 8th one he himself has done. hopefully this does not happen again. lights randomly going out is a safety hazard,and could lead to car accidents, injurys, and fatalities. *tr.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 42100 miles.

VOLKSWAGEN TIGUAN 2010 car safety problem was reported on Sept 13, 2013.VOLKSWAGEN TIGUAN 2010, manufactured by Volkswagen of America, Inc. had a problem with STRUCTURE . my 2010 tiguan has experienced a couple of significant issues due to design - one a burned fuse box and two a major water leak inside the right front passenger floorboard. both issues stem from design and not wear and tear. both repairs were costly - $561 and $753. i have received a safety recall 97z9 from vw for a fuse issue and will be waiting on a response. i've also submitted an inquiry to vw asking about plans to review the drain hose issue. had i not investigated the strong damp smell in the interior of the vehicle i would not have found the saturated floorboard and i do mean soaking wet. both drain hoses were found to have small leaks and the route of the hoses dumps right into the cabin - again this is not a wear and tear issue - it's a design/product issue. as a precaution the dealer recommended that i have all of the hoses replaced to prevent future water damage. i've seen numerous complaints from other vw owners about the drain hoses being defective so this appears to be a larger issue than just a few vehicles. thank you. *tr.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 63367 miles.
