This data is from the NHTSA — the US gov't agency tasked with vehicle safety. Complaints are spread across multiple & redundant categories, & are not organized by problem.
So how do you find out what problems are occurring? For this NHTSA complaint data, the only way is to read through the comments below. Any duplicates or errors? It's not us.
Consumer 2000 Gti mass air flow sensor failed twice after repairs. ***** the drivers door handle was loose. The left front window regulator was replaced. The dome light switch was broken.
Mass air flow sensor failed prematurely. Dealer refuses to cover part under emissions warranty. When maf sensor fails, damage is caused to catalytic converter causing premature failure of the converter, decrease in fuel economy and decreased engine performance.
Drivers side window regulator failed. Window was stuck down. Oxygen sensor failed the next day. The dealer claims this affects every VW. Why don't they fix them. Now I'm out of warranty and I'm sure my other window regulator and oxygen sensor will be going bad any day now. VW should be accountable for this.
Mass air sensor failed without warning, causing car to lurch uncontrollably - dealer in keene, nh stated the maf is not covered by powertrain warranty.
