2007 Volkswagen Jetta

I HAD ISSUES WITH THE FUEL SYSTEM AND AIR BAG LIGHT ON JUST STARTED. BUT DEALER CARMAX DID NOT TELL ABOUT ANY RECALL FOR THE FUEL SYSTEM FEW YEARS AGO. BUT I JUST SEEN THAT IN YOUR SYSTEM. AND CAR MAX CHANGED ME A LOT OF MONEY FOR THE FUEL SYSTEM BEING REPLACE AROUND FEB/2016. SO CAN SOME PLEASE HELP ME WITH THIS ISSUES. AND WANTED TO WILL CARMAX BE ABLE GET REIMBURSE FOR THEM THANKS

ENGINE SHUTS OFF WHILE DRIVING. HAPPENED MULTIPLE TIMES, HAD IT TOWED TO AN AUTO SHOP THAT WORKS W/MY USED CAR WARRENTY, THEY TESTED GENERATOR AND BATTERY AND BOTH WERE GOOD. NO RECALLS ON MY VIN HOWEVER, I DID SEE RECALL# 14E007000 ON 2007 JETTA'S AND IT STATES THE ENGINE COULD SHUT OFF DUE TO TIMING BELT FROM FAULTY WATER PUMP.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 VOLKSWAGEN JETTA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE WHILE DRIVING AT 40 MPH, THE VEHICLE STALLED AND THE TRANSMISSION WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED IMMEDIATELY AFTER THE FAILURE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC FOR DIAGNOSIS, HOWEVER THE DETAILS OF THE DIAGNOSIS WAS NOT AVAILABLE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 98,000.

I JUST RECENTLY BOUGHT THE CAR NOT EVEN 6 MONTHS AGO, CERTIFIED PRE OWNED, I NOTICED ABOUT A WEEK AFTER HAVING IT THAT TWO OF MY DOORS DO NOT LOCK AT ALL. ALSO MY HEAD LIGHTS STAY ON 24/7 WHILE MY CAR IN TURNED TO THE ON POSITION. WHEN I'M ON THE HIGHWAY THE CAR SHAKES REALLY BAD WHEN I HIT 60 MPH OR HIGHER. THIS CAR IS A PIECE AND I DON'T RECOMMEND ANYONE WITH A CHILD TO PURCHASE THIS CAR. IT IS UNSAFE AND UNPROFESSIONALLY DESIGNED.

MY VEHICLE HAS APPROXIMATELY 165K MILES. RIGHT AT ABOUT 120K MILES, THE TRANSMISSION STARTED SHIFTING HARSHLY. AT TIMES, THE TRANSMISSION WOULD GET STUCK AT 3RD GEAR, AND THE TRANSMISSION INDICATOR PANEL LIGHTS UP PRND ALL AT ONCE. THIS USUALLY HAPPENS WHEN DRIVING HILLS, OR STOP AND GO DRIVING. MY AIRBAG LIGHT IS ALSO ON CONSTANTLY. I'VE HAD THE ISSUE FIXED PREVIOUSLY, HOWEVER, THE ISSUE HAS RETURNED. LASTLY, MY PASSENGER SIDE DOOR DOES NOT LIKE ALL THE TIME. I'VE TRIED TO REMOTELY AND MANUALLY LOCK THE DOOR; HOWEVER, IT IS NOT WORKING PROPERLY.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 VOLKSWAGEN JETTA. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 20 MPH WITH THE SEAT WARMERS ACTIVATED, THE DRIVER SIDE SEAT WARMER IMMEDIATELY OVERHEATED AND BURNED THE CONTACT. MEDICAL ATTENTION WAS NOT REQUIRED. THE FAILURE PERSISTED EVEN AT THE LOWEST SETTING. THE FAILURE RECURRED ON ONE OTHER OCCASION. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 84,000.

ON SEPTEMBER 21, 2015, AT APPROXIMATELY 8:00 AM IN THE MORNING, MY SEAT WARMERS HAD BURNT OUT. I WAS ON MY WAY TO WORK; IT WAS A CHILLY MORNING SO I TURNED THE SEAT WARMER ON TO 4. THE HIGHEST IT GOES UP TO IS 5. SOON AFTER, I FELT IT WAS A BIT TOO HOT. WHEN I LOOKED DOWN, I SAW SMOKE! I COULD NOT STOP ANYWHERE SO I IMMEDIATELY TURNED OFF THE SEAT WARMER. I REMAINED CALM UNTIL I ARRIVED TO A STOP LIGHT. WHEN I LOOKED BEHIND ME I NOTICED 3 HOLES IN MY SEAT. TWO LITTLE ONES AND ONE BIG ONE. YOU CAN SEE THE BURNT WIRES. I WAS SO ANGRY BY THE TIME I GOT TO WORK. I DROVE OVER TO VW NEMER IN LATHAM, NY TO HAVE THEM CHECK IT OUT AND MAKE SURE THERE WAS NO ENGINE PROBLEM. THE SERVICE REP. WAS NOT SYMPATHETIC AND NOT VERY POLITE. HE KEPT SAYING I SHOULD HAVE CALLED AND I SHOULD HAVE MADE AN APPOINTMENT. I TOLD HIM I WAS GOING TO STAY THERE AND WAIT TO FIND OUT THE RESULTS. HE CAME BACK TO TELL ME THAT THE SEAT WARMER BURNT OUT AND THAT WAS ALL. HE ALSO TRIED TO GET ME TO FIX MY BRAKES (I DID NOT COME IN FOR BRAKES). HE TOLD ME I WOULD NEED NEW WIRING AND SEAT COVERS (LEATHER) TO FIX IT. I HAD AN EXTENDED WARRANTY AND HAD TO PAY A $100 DEDUCTIBLE. I AM NOT PAYING THAT DEDUCTIBLE. HOWEVER, IT DOES NOT MATTER, BECAUSE FOR SOME REASON MY WARRANTY EXPIRED, BUT MY CAR HAS NOT REACHED 100,000 MILES YET... I HAVE WRITTEN A COMPLAINT TO VW DEMANDING SOME TYPE OF RESOLUTION. THEY NEED TO CHECK THEIR CARS VERY THOROUGHLY. I READ THAT THERE WAS ANOTHER SEAT WARMER INCIDENT THAT HAPPENED IN CANADA AND VW DID NOT TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR IT. I AM AFRAID TO TURN ON ANY HEATING SYSTEM IN THE CAR NOW, BECAUSE IT TOO MIGHT FAIL AND SHOCK ME. I HAVE PICTURES TO SHOW MY TORN SEATS. I CAN SEND THEM IF NEEDED.

PURCHASED 2007 VW JETTA VEHICLE AND NOTICED A WEEK LATER THAT THE REAR DRIVERS SIDE DOOR WILL NOT WORK. HAD IT REPAIRED FOR NEARLY $500 AND BEFORE I COULD GET HOME THE FRONT PASSENGER'S DOOR STOPPED PROPER FUNCTION. THIS LEADS ME TO BELIEVE THAT THERE ARE DEFECTIVE ACTUATORS INVOLVED WITH SO MANY MALFUNCTIONS. THIS I WOULD CONSIDER AS A SAFETY HAZARD THAT THE MANUFACTURER NEEDS TO ADDRESS FOR THE CONSUMERS.
