CarComplaints.com Notes: VW gave the Tiguan a facelift with new headlights, a fancier grille, and improved performance. Unfortunately they didn't address what gave most 2010 owners headaches --- engine problems.

A D V E R T I S E M E N T S
Drove the car 7 miles to Costco.
The car ran as the car should. After shopping, I got back to car. No start.
Had it towed to shop. The timing chain tensioner had failed. This was a $4500 fix.
I will never buy another VW or Audi product again.
