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.
The brake booster continually goes out and the VW dealership can't find anything wrong. When the brake pedal is depressed several times in rapid succession either while you are moving or just standing still, it becomes incredibly hard to further push down and the brakes become almost completely unresponsive. So if you are in traffic and the car in front of you is constantly depressing their brake pedals, it is incredibly easy to rear end them if you don't allow for a lot of room between you and the car in front, which isn't always possible in traffic. Only after waiting for maybe 30 sections do the brakes return to a somewhat normal mode.
