I am the owner of a 2019 Volkswagen e-Golf with only 52,000 miles. Recently, an abnormal noise appeared coming from the gearbox during energy regenerative braking. I looked up online and found it's a common problem in Volkswagen e-Golf model. https://www.myvwegolf.com/threads/egolf-scraping-sound-when-driving-in-neutral-coasting-or-regen-braking.16708/ The issue was diagnosed as an internal failure in the motor/gearbox assembly, requiring a complete replacement of the unit. I can't imagine if the part die during driving on highway.
