I own a 2021 Atlus Cross-Sport and the last month I have had several electrical issues with it. It first started with my driver's windows would automatically roll down, then my radio would tune in/out, my check engine light comes on and then the passenger side air bag would turn off. I then would have my parking break come on when I rolled into a stop which included consistent beeping and alarms going off. Being a concern, I brought it into Volkswagen and was told that there was a recall on a faulty wiring harness. They agreed to place me into a rental car but had none available and gave me no other choices but to continue to drive the vehicle until the back-ordered parts came in. Two days later on May 1st I was driving the Atlus down the highway when my parking break automatically turned on and my car then sieved up on me. I returned my vehicle in Volkswagen the next day because I do not feel safe in that vehicle. So now I wait, with no ETA of parts to repair my vehicle that I am still paying a note and insurance on.

In Jan 2022, my airbag light came on. I took to local VW dealership (Raleigh) and they cleared the airbag light and said I was good to go. Within a couple days, the airbag light came back on. Took back to the dealership and they said now I need a harness for the LF door, but part on backorder. It is April 2022, and there is still no harness. I called last week to check and they said there were 2,000 on order and no ETA yet. I have been driving around with an open airbag circuit and a TSB that clearly states the airbags will not go off as designed. I contacted VW customer care and filed a complaint and asked to be compensated for the fact that they are still selling VW Atlas' but cannot produce safety parts, or to get me a harness, or provide alternative transportation. Their solution was for me to continue to follow up with the dealership on my part and they would file a case for my complaint and concerns. Who will be held liable when I am in a wreck and my airbags do not operate? I have two young children, and this is honestly despicable. This is not a cosmetic part, it is a safety concern, and the fact that they have 2,000 families out there with no resolve is unacceptable.

Vehicle was in passage side collision and air bags did not deploy.

My air bag warning light is on, I took this to a dealer service facility and they said it is a wiring harness failure. Upon doing more research on this I find this harness failure has caused, the parking brake to be applied while driving, the windows will go down on their own. VW customer tells me this is safe to drive, they have no fix and their newest vehicles have this possible fault. This vehicle can not be safe to be driving on the highway.

On 11/15/2021 I was on an access road for a major city highway going approximately 10-15 mph. I was forced to the left lane from right lane by a pickup truck exiting from a restaurant going very fast, there was no contact (Collision) with the pickup. I had started braking but made contact with the curd of left lane while almost coming to a stop and the side air bags deployed. I definitely feel the airbags should not have deployed and if so they would have deployed if I had ran across a chuckhole/pothole. I didn-??t know there was a recall at that time and until January 2022 and so filled with my insurance company for repairs. At no time did Volkswagen ever offer to provide a loner auto or take care of repairs and as a matter of fact I still don-??t have my auto back as of 2/7/22.

brakes are squeaking at 15k, airbag light on, cracking noise when turning corners

- Temple Hills, MD, USA

My adaptive cruise control AND airbags FAILED when traffic ahead of me suddenly stopped. (There was NO airbag deployment.) I crashed into the person in front of me who then hit the person in front of them. The vehicle is available for inspection. I told the dealership at my 10k scheduled maintenance it was not braking or recognizing vehicles in front until it was so late I had to manually brake. I had a bunch of stuff in the front seat to where the passenger airbag light was on. It also DID not deploy. If someone had been there without a seatbelt there would have been severe injuries. Also I already had a "fuel sensor" that was bad that caused my vehicle to quit upon certain accelerations. My vechicle "quit" suddenly on multiple occasions almost causing a crash on the freeway and several other times on the highway. The EPA light always appeared when this happened and once the engine block light also came on. I could have been killed. I told them at my 10k service and that is when they said it was a fuel sensor and they would call me when it was available to be replaced. It was NOT replaced at the time of the crash.
