Abs control module problem/failurewe saw a recall for 2009 models with this issue! our vehicle is a 2010 jetta sportwagon with less than 80k miles on it which we purchase din december of 2009 with a 7 year/100k mile extended warranty. We were always really happy with the car until we got the notice that this was one of the cars with the emissions cheats in it. As we had such little mileage on the car we elected (after much contemplation mind you) to have the car "fixed" and took the $5k in restitution they offered. Just after the emissions "fix" the car started sputtering when in idle speed so we took it to the dealership but were told they did not see any error codes and could not duplicate the problem so we kept driving the car but this issue did not go away and is still a constant aggravation to us as the entire car shakes when this occurs.june 2018 the brake light, the traction control light, and the abs light came on. We took it to the dealership and they hooked it up to the computer which instructed them that the abs module and pump need to be replaced, approximately a $3,000 repair. We took it to another mechanic who instructed us that the pump was fine but the module needed to be replaced due to the fault they read. July 2018, in addition to the previous lights coming on, now the diesel pre-heat light came on, the steering light came on, the airbag light came on and the esp light came on, the engine light came on. Once again we took it to the dealership and got the same answer: the abs control module is faulty.we are getting a third opinion as we have a bad feeling that the software update they installed for the emissions "repair" is setting off some of these communications issues. After 8.5 years without any issues to have these problems after they "fix" the software seems awfully coincidental.
Takata recall. The contact owns a 2010 volkswagen jetta sportwagen. While driving 10 mph, the steering wheel became difficult to turn. The contact stated that "caution defective air bag" was displayed. The contact was able to park the vehicle safely. The vehicle was not able to be driven and was towed to the contact's residence. The contact called volkswagen of murrieta (located at 41300 date st, murrieta, ca 92562, (951) 249-7072) and informed them of the failure. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was not notified. The failure mileage was 76,000.
Vehicle warning lights came on for abs and airbag while driving. Testing at dealership concluded abs control module, abs hydraulic pumps need replacing at 77,000 miles. Airbag seat pod on passenger side needs replacing at 77,000 miles.
Abs engine light is on.found evidence online that vw extended coverage for replacement of this module. Fault code for safety recall for abs module is 16v-913.was told by the dealership that module is not under warranty.in addition, air bag indicator is on and check engine light is on. Just had the cheat device removed two months ago.
My check engine light is constantly on and i have never gotten a recall notice.
I was involved in a car accident on 6/01/2017. The police estimated that the car that hit me from the back was going 55mph. My airbag failed to deploy...even though my car was totaled due to suffering extensive from end damage. My car was stopped at the moment of impact. Due to the failure of my airbag my face and shoulder hit the steering wheel causing me to lose a tooth and cause great damage to my shoulder.
Factory radio model rcd 510.car mileage: 61,320 miles.it was hot outside and i was running air conditioning.after driving for about 30min with radio on, the radio went blank (black screen).it would not turn back on at the time.a technician checked fuses and no blown fuses were found.the radio remained in the car for 2 more days and would not turn back on.radio was removed from the car and the technician took the radio apart, could not find an issue, discharged capacitor & radio still did not work.radio is totally dead.safety issue since bluetooth (handsfree) phone will not work without radio.
Electrical lighting monitoring system started going through several actions indicating right front low beam was out, then left rear brake light was out, then front, right signal light was out, then left rear signal light was out, then license bracket light was out. All this happened while the auto was being driven on a straight section of highway. Carried auto to local service man who said it would be better for volkswagen to look at it, as it involved major electrical problems.although car had been turned off, the battery had to be re-charged to get the car to start in order to carry to dealer - 45 miles away.was told by vw dealership that it sounded like the fuse box had melted.stated they had seen several incidents of this.actual diagnosis was the fuse box had melted.i commented that this seemed strange.i thought the purpose of a fuse box was a safeguard to prevent overheating and that fuses were suppose to blow and stop the current flow if there were problems in the electrical system.
Rcd-315 radio died.while driving on country road, radio popped and died.after electrical test of fuses and internet search, i determined that the radio could not be repaired.the safety issue on this is that the bluetooth module was still active and there was no way to turn it off other than unplugging the bluetooth.since i use hands free phone, this is a hazardous failure.i located 100's of websites that talked about this radio issue and the resulting electrical problems that this failure causes.this issue should be a recall priority.

Faulty egr system puts moisture in the turbo intercooler on the diesel 2.0 engine. Intercooler eventually freezes in cold temperatures. Engine dies randomly due to no turbo boost. My car died while making a left hand turn across 2 lanes of oncoming traffic. We were almost t-boned by a semi truck hauling a 53' trailer! my dealer had one other tdi in the shop the same day mine was towed in. Vw has engineered a ' cold weather intercooler' and is aware of this design flaw. Nothing is mentioned in the owner's manual about draining the water (which isn't supposed to be there) from the system occasionally during warm weather. Cars under the 36,000 mile warranty have had the updated intercooler installed for free. This update, that didn't fix the problem, cost me $1042.92. The car stalled during the drive home from the dealership immediately after the new cold weather intercooler was installed. It stalled 2 out of 3 subsequent trips after the updated intercooler. The car had to be towed due to the engine starting and immediately stalling. This issue arose after the vw tdi emmissions fix that was performed on my car in december of 2017.
In late 2016 i received notification of the pending volkswagen/audi diesel emissions settlement.about 4 months ago i i went through the verification process and it was determined that:1-my car is in the buy back group2-vw will pay it off and 3-vw will give me $800 and some dollars finalizing the transactioni have had this car ready to drop off and waiting for 3 months.i am now 2 payments behind as i was expecting for vw to honor their commitment, but have not heard anything.volkswagen is apparently not displaying a sense of urgency with the bad faith shown by delaying this process.i am aware that their corporate representative at our local dealer has been apprised of my situation and nothing has happened.can/will nhtsa 'compel' them to follow up with their agreement. I have had a ;lot of trouble with the local dealer and have filed a bbb complaint on them also regarding this and another issue.pleas help me.sincerely,[xxx]information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6).

Not a complaint just curious. Has anyone "fried" their abs module and or replaced one. Where is the best place to get parts? how much was the average cost of repairs?

Spring failed on pass front strut at highway speed, smooth road, causing tire to blow-out and wheel bearing to fail. Family in car including 6 week old. Barely could control car to safe stop. Lucky. Repairs will run over $1500. Dealer informed us that many vw and audi cars are experiencing this, that they are worried and have informed vw they have a problem. He showed me three other failed springs. I kept mine. It has no signs of corrosion prior to failure - metal fatigue probably related to bad metallurgy, according to my dad who's an engineer.classic spiral fracture. Had to have car towed to vw dealer 150 miles from home - rent car for 2 weeks until repaired.
I have recently noticed that the 2015 - 2019 jetta sportwagen been identified with a rear coil spring breaking issue and a recall will be issued april 19, 2019 - my 2010 jetta sportwagen has recently experienced the same issue and i believe the recall should be expanded

After driving all day with no problem, i put the car in park and attempted to turn the car off. The ignition would not turn off. I drove a little further and tried again and it would not turn off. I took it to my mechanic and they couldn't get it to turn off either. After many attempts and wd-40, they we able to get the car off. It appears that the issue is the ignition switch. According to the mechanic, there are many issues with this with volkswagen, yet there is not a recall. The replacement will be about $650. I've already replaced electrical issues involving abs and airbags that were close to $2000. After 2 years of ownership, i'm ready to get rid of this car and never own another volkswagen.
