AFTER DRIVING FOR 30 MINUTES I PARKED THE CAR FOR 20 MINUTES AND WHEN PULLING OUT OF THE PARKING SPACE THE CAR COMPLETELY DIED. I PUT THE CAR IN PARK, TURNED THE KEY AND THERE WAS NOT A SOUND.

I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO OAKLAND CA VW SERVICE AND I WAS TOLD THAT THE FUEL FILTER WAS CHANGED. "SORRY, WE DON'T KNOW WHAT IS WRONG WITH IT, THERE ARE NO FAULTS SHOWING BUT IF IT KEEPS HAPPENING BRING IT BACK." AGAIN, I WAS DRIVING DOWN A ROAD AT APPROXIMATELY 35 MPH. THE CAR SHUT OFF WITHOUT ANY WARNING. THERE WAS NO SPUTTERING, NO WARNING LIGHTS - NOTHING. AGAIN THE CAR CAME TO AN ABRUPT STOP. I WAS KIND OF EXPECTING ANOTHER OCCURRENCE SO I LUCKILY WAS ABLE TO PULL OFF TO THE RIGHT TO AVOID A TRAFFIC ACCIDENT. I WILL BE TAKING THE CAR BACK INTO VW OF OAKLAND. I AM DUE TO LEAVE THE STATE FOR VANCOUVER, WASHINGTON AND THEN DRIVE TO PENNSYLVANIA. AT THIS POINT THE PROBLEM IS A CAUSE FOR MAJOR CONCERN OVER THE SAFETY OF MY FAMILY AND MYSELF.

VOLKSWAGEN TIGUAN 2012 car safety problem was reported on Nov 01, 2013.VOLKSWAGEN TIGUAN 2012, manufactured by Volkswagen of America, Inc. had a problem with FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM . SEVERAL TIMES, AFTER STARTING MY TIGUAN AND BACKING OUT OF A PARKING SPACE OR DRIVING OUT OF MY DRIVEWAY WITHIN MINUTES OF STARTING THE ENGINE, WHILE IN REVERSE OR IN DRIVE, THE CAR JUST TURNS OFF WITH IT IN GEAR, SO THEN I HAVE HAD TO RESTART THE ENGINE TO CONTINUE ON WITH MY TRAVELS. THIS APPEARS TO HAPPEN AFTER THE CAR HAS BEEN RUNNING FOR AWHILE, THEN IS TURNED OFF FOR ABOUT A HALF HOUR AND THEN I GO TO DRIVE IT SOMEWHERE ELSE, SO IT IS WARMED UP. I HAVE BROUGHT IT TO MY LOCAL VW DEALERSHIP TWO TIMES NOW FOR THIS ISSUE. THE FIRST TIME, THEY SUGGESTED REPLACING THE FUEL PUMP MODULE, WHICH WE DID DO, HOWEVER IT IS OCCURRING AGAIN. I BROUGHT IT BACK TO VW AND THEY CAN'T SEEM TO FIND OUT WHAT IS WRONG WITH IT, BUT HAVE SUGGESTED REPLACING THE FUEL PUMP ITSELF, FOR A MERE $600 OR MORE, WHICH I HAVE NOT OPTED TO DO YET, AS I DON'T FEEL I SHOULD HAVE TO REPLACE THIS COSTLY PART FOR SOMETHING THAT SEEMS TO BE A RECURRING ISSUE WITH MANY TIGUAN OWNERS. I THINK VOLKSWAGEN NEEDS TO STEP UP AND ISSUE A RECALL ON THESE FUEL PUMPS IF THAT IS THE CASE. THE VEHICLE IS ONLY 2 YEARS OLD AND I HAVE READ OF SEVERAL PEOPLE COMPLAINING OF THE SAME ISSUE WITH THEIR TIGUANS. IT APPEARS THAT THERE IS SOMETHING DRASTICALLY WRONG WITH THESE CARS, WHETHER IT BE THE FUEL PUMP OR WHAT NOT, BUT NO ONE SEEMS TO KNOW. THIS IS A HUGE SAFETY HAZARD AS THE VEHICLE JUST TURNS OFF WHILE IN DRIVE OR REVERSE IN PUBLIC PLACES, HOPING THAT SOMEONE CAN LOOK INTO THIS ISSUE AND TAKE THE APPROPRIATE ACTION TO RECTIFY IT.....UPDATED 02-28-14 *BF.

THE CRUISE CONTROL ON MY TIGUAN JUMPS TO HIGHER SPEEDS WHEN YOU PUSH THE BUTTON TO LOWER THE SPEED. IT OCCURS RANDOMLY AND IS DANGEROUS I.E WHEN FOLLOWING SOMEONE AND THEY SLOW, ATTEMPTS TO SLOW MY CAR APPROPRIATELY USING THE SPEED CONTROL RESULTS IF THE CAR SPEEDING UP 3 TO 4 MPH THREATENING COLLISION WITH THE CAR IN FRONT. THE ONLY WAY TO SLOW RELIABLY IS TO TURN OFF THE CRUISE CONTROL. THIS HAS BEEN AN ISSUE SINCE THE CAR WAS DELIVERED AS A NEW CAR TO ME AND AT LEAST THREE ATTEMPTS TO GET THE DEALER TO CORRECT THE PROBLEM HAVE FAILED. THE LATEST EXCUSE WAS THAT THE SYSTEM WAS DESIGNED THAT WAY!! THIS HAS NOT CAUSED AN ACCIDENT FOR ME BUT IT SURELY WILL WITH TIME. PLEASE HAVE THIS SITUATION FIXED BY A RECALL IF NECESSARY. IT MIGHT CAUSE SOMEONE ELSE UNAWARE OF THE PROBLEM, TO HAVE AN ACCIDENT.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Vehicle Identification Number (VIN):WVGBV7AXXCW.
