ELECTRICAL SYSTEM: INSTRUMENT CLUSTER/PANEL
Potential Consequences:
I have a 2022 Taos Volkswagen Sport WG. It was purchased in April 2022. In November 2022 was the first time the dash board lights started to go dark and dimming so low that I could not see my driving speed and after turning vehicle on and off it still did not get better, Therefore, I took into Dealership where I purchased vehicle. The service advisor, the service manager and the service Electrician could not figure out what was the cause. I suggested to the service Electrician to see if the Taos they have on lot were also doing the same thing. So he pulled up a new Taos and the new Taos on the car lot was also doing the same thing. I left the vehicle with the dealership to see if they could fix what was going on with the dash light but to no avail, it eventually got brighter and I have heard nothing further from them. On May 11, 2023. Again the dash lights and this time the Radio lights too went very dim, so dim I could not see my speed nor channel selection for radio. I again drove to the dealership and there it is at this point, again the Service Manager came out trying to adjust the light settings, he could not. so he asked if I can leave the vehicle behind so that they can take a better look at it. I was not offered a rental, I did ask for one but he said they have none available! I am very disappointed in VOLKSWAGEN, the only reason I switched vehicle makes was because my daughter had a Volkswagen, but currently seriously about purchasing another make.

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
Potential Consequences:
My 2022 VW Taos suddenly began to lose acceleration and the check engine light and EPC light came on. Upon contacting the dealership, they said there is a recall on my car for the exact issues, however they do not have any parts to fix it and do not have an ETA of when it can be fixed. The safety recall states that if operating the vehicle while this issue is happening, it could result in a car crash. The dealership then suggested I could bring the car in for a diagnostic test but it would take 2 WEEKS MINIMUM to find out the results because they are backed up. With an unsafe car to drive, I asked the dealership if I could have a loaner car in the meantime since mine is unsafe to drive. They told me they don’t have any and to try contacting corporate for a voucher for a rental car. I contacted corporate and they had no idea what “voucher” I was talking about and said they do not do that. Now, I am in limbo with no vehicle, no way to get to work, and no timeline on when VW will have the parts for the safety recall.

Corrective Action:
My car has been leaking cooling into the head gasket for 4 months. I have been waiting a month for parts and no update. My passengers and my safety was at risk when my car stalled out on a busy road. The problem has been inspected by the Volkswagen dealership. I found out there was a problem when my engine coolant light came on after less than one month of owning the vehicle. My front collision warning does not work correctly. It alerts me when there is vehicle in front of me or when there is a fork in the road. My car was on cruise control and came close to a vehicle and no notification or alert notified me and I have the feature set to alert me "early" to avoid collision.
