Since then, I have not received any call from the dealer, and the only time that they answer me they said taht they do not know when the part will arrive.

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.
