AIR BAGS
Potential Consequences:
It has been nearly a year since Volkswagen announced a recall effecting airbags in the Atlas. My warning lights continue to go off intermittently. I have brought this to the attention of Volkswagen many times, to no avail. The recommendation is to not drive with a passenger in the passenger seat. Well, it has been a year, I bought this car to seat six. With no solution in sight, I feel I am being taken advantage of and was sold a lemon. I would like pressure to be put on Volkswagen to correct the problem so my family can drive this vehicle with confidence, since that is what I spent my money for.

Potential Consequences:
In April 2023, VW issued a recall on the passenger side airbags. Recall number 69FB for 2018-2020 VW Atlas. It is now coming up on a year since this recall with no remedy in site. I have been trying to trade in or sell my vehicle and being told by multiple dealerships they cannot take the vehicle due to the open recall. Their main reason is due to the fact this recall has no remedy. How long does a manufacturer have to fix open recalls before they have to compensate the customer for their inconvenience.

SERVICE BRAKES
Potential Consequences:
While driving approx 20MPH while turning a corner in a neighborhood, the FAULT BRAKE BOOSTER warning went off and braked my vehicle. The car continued to flash this warning and the brakes were not easily depressed (felt somewhat like when ABS happens in icy roads). This happened multiple times until I could get home.Took the vehicle to VW dealer and they replaced a sensor. 3 weeks later the same warning and braking situation happened while in a parking lot. Returned to dealer and still being evaluated. Online, this is a recall for 2019 Atlas' but not for my VIN. Concerned this should be included in a recall. Worried for my safety as this has happened multiple times including after repair and causes the car brakes to go automatically and unexpectedly.
