2016 Volkswagen Jetta

MY THING IS WHEN I FIRST GOT THE CAR WHEN THE HEATER WAS TURNED ON YOU SMELL SOMETHING BURNING... TOLD THE DEALERSHIP THEY SAID IT WAS PROBABLY SAND GETTING IN THE HEATER...BUT MY CO WORKERS NOTICED IT ALSO IT WENT FROM THAT TO THE WINDOW NOT GOING UP AND DOWN WHEN YOU MASH THE BUTTON TO NOT GOING ALL THE WAY DOWN...THEN THE A/C NOT PUTTING OUT COOL AIR.... THE DEALERSHIP WAS TOLD ABOUT THIS AS WELL AND DID ASK IF A RECALL WAS DONE... NONE WAS DONE THEY NO OFF. THIS VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 VOLKSWAGEN JETTA. WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS ENGAGED IN PARK AND TURNED OFF, IT ROLLED AWAY AND CRASHED INTO TWO OTHER VEHICLES. THE AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. A POLICE REPORT WAS NOT FILED. THERE WERE NO INJURIES. THE CONTACT WAS CONCERNED BECAUSE HIS CHILD AND ANOTHER CHILD WERE OCCUPYING THE REAR SEATS WHEN THE FAILURE OCCURRED. THE CONTACT REFERENCED NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 19V615000 (STEERING, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM). THE CONTACT CALLED AN UNKNOWN DEALER AND INFORMED THEM OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND STATED THAT THE VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL; HOWEVER, OTHER 2016 JETTAS WERE INCLUDED.

THE CONTACT PULLED THE VEHICLE OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND NOTICED THAT THE TIRE PRESSURE, SKID, AND ABS WARNING INDICATORS WERE ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO WALLACE VOLKSWAGEN (2805 SE FEDERAL HWY, STUART, FL 34994, (772) 219-0007) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT A NEW WHEEL SPEED SENSOR NEEDED TO BE INSTALLED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED, BUT THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO DIAGNOSED THAT ANOTHER WHEEL SPEED SENSOR NEEDED TO BE INSTALLED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED.

"BRAKE FAILURE" SON WAS DRIVING VEHICLE IN STOP AND GO TRAFFIC. THE CAR IN FRONT OF HIM STARTED TO GO HE SLOWLY FOLLOWED. HE WAS GOING ABOUT 10-15MPH, AND THE TRUCK IN FRONT OF HIM SLAMMED ON BRAKES SUDDENLY. WHEN CAUSED HIM TO HAVE TO BRAKE. WHEN HE HIT THE BRAKES HE HEARD A BOOM ( SOUNDED LIKE A TIN CAN CRUSHING) AND THE CONTINUED TO SLIDE INTO THE TOYOTA TACOMA IN FRONT OF HIM. THE JETTA IS A TOTAL LOSS.

THE HANKOOK TIRES I HAVE ARE BOLDING WAY TOO EARLY. THEY STARTED TO AT 32,000 FOR THE FIRST 2 TIRES AND 18,000 FOR THE OTHER 2. THE TIRES ARE RATED FOR 70,000 MILES AND I'M NOT GETTING ANYWHERE NEAR THAT. EVERY TIME IT RAINS I HYDROPLANE AND ITS NOW UNSAFE FOR ME TO DRIVE MY CAR. I HAVE CONTACTED HANKOOK AND WAS TOLD TO GO TO THE PLACE OF PURCHASE. SO I GO TO VW AND THEY TOLD ME THERE IS NOTHING THEY CAN DO FOR ALL 4 BUT ONLY THE 2. AFTER SOME ARGUING THEY TELL ME TO DRIVE AROUND ON MY BOLDING TIRES AND WERE THEM DOWN MORE AND THEY WILL TRY TO GET ME NEW TIRES BUT I WOULD STILL HAVE TO PAY. THIS IS UNSAFE FOR A CAR DEALER TO TELL ME TO CONTINUE DRIVING ON THE, EVEN AFTER THEY SEEN HOW WORN DOWN THEY WERE! THIS IS ALSO THE 2ND SET OF TIRES I HAD FOR THIS CAR WITH THE SAME PROBLEM. THE CAR ONLY HAS 52000 MILES NOW.
