Volkswagen Group of America, Inc. (Volkswagen) is recalling certain 2012-2016 Eos, 2012 Passat, 2012-2016 CC, 2015-2016 e-Golf, 2011-2015 Touareg, 2012-2015 and 2017 Tiguan, and 2011-2016 Golf and 2011-2013 GTI vehicles. Modifications made while the vehicles were in an internal evaluation period may cause the affected vehicles to not comply with all of the applicable regulatory requirements.
If the vehicles do not meet all regulatory requirements, there could be an increased risk of a crash, fire, or injury.
Volkswagen will notify owners, and dealers will repair the vehicles to make them fully compliant or Volkswagen will repurchase them if necessary, free of charge. The recall began November 29, 2018. Owners may contact Volkswagen customer service at 1-800-893-5298.

Air bags, frontalAug 4, 2015
Volkswagen Group of America, Inc. (Volkswagen) is recalling certain model year 2010-2014 Volkswagen CC, and Passat, 2010-2013 Eos, 2011-2014 Golf, GTI, Jetta, and Tiguan, and 2012-2014 Jetta Sportwagen vehicles. In the affected vehicles, debris may contaminate the air bag clock spring, a spiral wound, flat cable that keeps the air bag powered while the steering wheel is being turned. This contamination may tear the cable and result in a loss of electrical connection to the driver's frontal air bag.
A loss of electrical connection to the driver's frontal air bag will prevent the air bag from deploying in the event of a vehicle crash, increasing the risk of injury.
Volkswagen will notify owners, and dealers will install a protective cover over the steering wheel clock spring if the air bag light is off. If the airbag light is on and the steering wheel clock spring requires replacement, dealers will install a new steering wheel clock spring. These repairs will be performed free of charge. The recall began on January 15, 2016. Owners may contact Volkswagen customer service at 1-800-822-8987.

A vehicle stall increases the risk of a crash.
Volkswagen will notify owners, and dealers will update the vehicle's software to increase the fuel pump pressure, free of charge. The recall is expected to begin August 19, 2014. Owners may contact Volkswagen customer service at 1-800-822-8987. Volkswagen's number for this recall is 24AV/2W.

MY VOLKSWAGEN TIGUAN'S CHECK ENGINE LIGHT TURNED ON AND THE DEALERSHIP SAID THAT THE TENSION ON THE TIMING CHAIN IS OUTSIDE SAFE PARAMETERS AND CAN CAUSE THE ENGINE TO FAIL. MY TIGUAN IS ONLY A 2014 AND ONLY HAS ABOUT 80,000 MILES. MY UNDERSTANDING IS THAT TIMING CHAINS ARE SUPPOSED TO LAST THE LIFE OF THE VEHICLE AND IT'S ONLY 4 YEARS OLD. THIS SEEMS TO ME TO BE A FACTORY DEFECT.

CLOCK SPRING BROKEN, VIN NOT COVERED IN RECALL.

STATIONARY, PARKED. STARTED ENGINE AND HEAR CLICKING NOISE FROM THE STEERING COLUMN. ERROR MESSAGE AND LIGHT EMERGED ON THE DASHBOARD INDICATING AIRBAG ERROR. NON-FUNCTIONAL ELECTRONIC CONTROLS AND HORN ON THE STEERING WHEEL. NO AIRBAG FUNCTION AND HORN IS A MAJOR SAFETY CONCERN.
Electrical system, Sep 17, 2018
AFTER MAKING A TURN OUT OF MY DRIVEWAY I HEARD A LOOSE RATTLING NOISE COMING FROM THE STEERING COLUMN WHENEVER I WOULD TURN THE WHEEL. AFTER A FEW MINUTES I NOTICED THE AIRBAG LIGHT WAS NOW ON. I PULLED OVER AND CHECKED THE STEERING WHEEL. ALL THE CONTROLS ON THE STEERING WHEEL WERE NOT FUNCTIONING INCLUDING THE HORN. AFTER DOING SOME RESEARCH WE DISCOVERED THAT MANY 2014 TIGUANS WERE RECALLED FOR A DEFECTIVE CLOCKSPRING CAUSING THE PROBLEMS I AM DEALING WITH. THE CLOCKSPRING IN MY STEERING WHEEL IS BROKEN DISCONNECTING POWER FROM THE AIR BAG, HORN, AND STEERING WHEEL CONTROLS. I CONTACTED VOLKSWAGEN AND WAS INFORMED THAT MY VEHICLE WILL NOT BE COVERED BY BY THE RECALL EVEN THOUGH IT IS THE SAME TYPE AND YEAR MODEL AS OTHER VEHICLES COVERED FOR THIS SAME PROBLEM. THE RECALL NEEDS TO BE EXPANDED.
Air bags, Sep 14, 2018
I WAS TAKING MY CAR OUT OF THE PARKING SPOT WHEN I HEARD MY STEERING WHEEL CLICKING. SUDDENLY, THE AIRBAG LIGHT APPEARED ON THE DASH BOARD, MY STEERING WHEEL CONTROLS AND MY HORN STOPPED WORKING. I SEARCHED ON THE INTERNET AND I SAW OTHER CARS WITH THE SAME PROBLEM. I CALLED VW AND THEY SAID MY CAR WASN'T ON THE RECALL LIST AND NOT ON THE WARRANTY SO I WOULD HAVE TO REPAIR IT ON MY OWN.
Steering, Air bags, Aug 8, 2018
TAKATA RECALL / CLOCK SPRING, WHY IS EVERY OTHER MODEL IN THIS YEAR COVERED ACCEPT FOR THE TIGUAN? I AM A SINGLE MOM AND CAN NOT AFFORD THIS PART. I HAVE ALREADY TAKEN IT TO THE DEALER AND THEY CAN'T HELP ME. ALL I DID WAS TRY TO PARALLEL PARK AND THE STEERING COLUMN STARTED CLICKING AND THE AIRBAG LIGHT CAME ON. THERE IS NO HORN OR AIRBAG OR STEERING CONTROLS. THIS IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS. PLEASE HELP ME!

WHILE DRIVING AND MAKING A LEFT TURN ON A CITY STREET, I HEARD A CLICKING IN THE STEERING WHEEL AND THE AIRBAG ERROR LIGHT CAME O. THEN NONE OF THE BUTTONS ON THE STEERING WHEEL WORKED. DEALER INVESTIGATED AND DETERMINED IT WAS THE CLOCK SPRING. THE MILEAGE WAS 66,000. ABOUT THE SAME AS ALL THE OTHER COMPLAINTS I HAVE READ. LUCKILY I ONLY HAD TO PAY THE 50 CHARGE BECAUSE I HAD A USED CAR WARRANTY.
Air bags, May 17, 2018
MY AIRBAG HAS A CLOCK SPRING ISSUE AND NEEDS TO GO TO THE DEALER FOR REPAIR. MY CAR IS NOT CONSIDERED WITH THE RECALL RELATED TO THE SAME ISSUE, SAME MAKE, MODEL, AND YEAR OF MY CAR (2014 VOLKSWAGEN TIGUAN).
Electrical system, Air bags, May 16, 2018
THE DRIVER NOTICED THAT THE CAR BECAME DIFFICULT TO TURN AND THAT THE AIR-BAG ERROR LIGHT WAS ON. WE TOOK IT TOO AN AUTHORIZED DEALER WHERE WE HAD PURCHASED THE CAR BRAND NEW.THE CLOCK SPRING WAS ISOLATED AS BEING DEFECTIVE/NON-FUNCTIONAL. AS A RESULT, THE DRIVER AIR-BAG WAS SHOWING AN ERROR, ALSO THE HORN AND THE CONTROLS ON THE STEERING WHEEL WERE ALSO INOPERABLE. THIS APPARENTLY IS A COMMON PROBLEM FOR THESE MODELS FOR WHICH THERE IS A RECALL THAT DOES INCLUDES THE VW TIGUAN 2014 BUT THE AUTHORIZED DEALER (HALLMARK VW OF COOL SPRINGS, TN) INDICATED THAT RECALL WAS NOT FOR THIS SPECIFIC VIN. THEY CHARGED ME $750 FOR PART REPLACEMENT.

ALTHOUGH VW HAS HAD RECALLS IN MULTIPLE OF ITS 2010-2014 VEHICLES WITH THE EXACT SAME ISSUE I'M HAVING CURRENTLY THERE IS NO RECALL ON MY 2014 VOLKSWAGEN TIGUAN. I WAS PARALLEL PARKING AND I TURNED MY WHEEL ONE WAY AND HEARD A "TICK-TICK-TICK" SOUND IN THE STEERING WHEEL COLUMN. WHEN I TURNED THE WHEEL THE OPPOSITE WAY TO FINISH PARKING IT DID NOT TICK. AFTER THAT I HAD NO POWER IN MY STEERING WHEEL CONTROLS, ALONGSIDE THE AIRBAG LIGHT TURNING ON NOTIFYING ME THEY WERE NO LONGER WORKING AND MY HORN DOES NOT WORK WHEN ATTEMPTING TO USE WHILE DRIVING OR INSIDE THE CAR. WHEN OUTSIDE THE CAR AND I HIT THE LOCK BUTTON THE HORN WORKS NOTIFYING ME IT HAS BEEN LOCKED. I WAS NEARLY RAMMED INTO AFTER ANOTHER CAR TRIED MERGING INTO MY LANE AND I WASN'T ABLE TO HONK MY HORN AS WARNING TO THEM. CONSIDERING THE RECENT RECALLS FROM VOLKSWAGEN I DON'T BELIEVE THIS ISSUE IS SOMETHING I SHOULD HAVE TO PAY FOR WHEN IT IS THE EXACT SAME PROBLEM FOR WHICH THE CURRENT RECALLS HAVE BEEN ISSUED.
Steering, Mar 5, 2018
THE CLOCK SPRING IN THE STEERING COLUMN WENT OUT. I HAVE NO ACCESS TO UPDATE ANY MAINTENANCE ITEMS TO DO MY VEHICLES, INCLUDING TIRES PRESSURE UPDATE, SERVICE UPDATE, OIL CHANGES AND SERVICE MAINTENANCE. I CANNOT TURN VOLUME OR CHANGE RADIO STATIONS, I CANNOT ACCESS MY MOBILE PHONE, I HAVE NO HORN, ETC. NONE OF THE CONTROLS ON THE STEERING COLUMN WORK. ALSO THERE IS A CLICKING SOUND ANYTIME I TURN STEERING WHEEL. THE VEHICLE CAN BE MOVING, OR STATIONARY AT THE TIME AND NOTHING WORKS ON THE STEERING COLUMN.

FIRST I CALLED VW CUSTOMER CARE AND THERE WAS NOTHING THEY CAN D BECAUSE MY VIN WAS NOT PART OF THE RECALL, AS WORKING FOR A DEALERSHIP I ATTEMPTED TO HAVE IT WARRANTIED GOODWILL, I HAD A REPAIR ORDER MADE, AND I DIAGNOSED IT TO BEING A FAULTY CLOCK SPRING. AFTER LOG WAS UPLOADED TO VW, MY WARRANTY ADMINISTRATOR TOLD ME THAT THE CLAIM HAD BEEN DENIED. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE AND THE PART TO FIX THE VEHICLE IS 300 DOLLARS WITH ME REPAIRING IT. MY GIRLFRIEND DRIVES THE VEHICLE DAILY AND HAS A 3 YEAR OLD CHILD. I WILL NOT LET HER DRIVE THE VEHICLE BECAUSE THE ENTIRE AIRBAG SYSTEM IS OFF AS WELL AS NOT HAVING A HORN, THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY CONCERN AND VW REFUSES TO CLAIM RESPONSIBILITY AND TO WARRANTY THE REPAIR WHEN THE ISSUE IS KNOWN IN OTHER VEHICLES.

I HAVE A 2014 VW TIGUAN WITH ABOUT 53,100 MILES. MY CLOCK SPRING JUST BROKE. THE STEERING WHEEL HAD BEEN MAKING LICKING SOUNDS DURING TURNS FOR A FEW WEEKS, THEN AFTER A LOUD CLICK (DURING A TURN AT A LOW SPEED/IN PARKING LOT), MY AIR BAG LIGHT CAME ON AND CONTROLS ON THE STEERING WHEEL STOPPED WORKING. THE VW DEALERSHIP INFORMED ME THAT THIS ISSUE IS NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY NOR A RECALL. I SEE THAT THE NHTSA HAS OPENED AN INVESTIGATION TO DETERMINE WHETHER THE INITIAL RECALL INCLUDED ENOUGH VEHICLES. THIS JUST HAPPENED THE OTHER DAY, SO IT IS NOT FIXED YET. (I NEED TO SAVE UP $800 TO FIX). I WANTED TO REPORT THIS IN CASE THE NHTSA NEEDED MORE INCIDENTS FOR THEIR INVESTIGATION.

AIRBAG WARNING LIGHT ON, HORN NOT FUNCTIONAL AND CONTROL BUTTONS ON STEERING WHEEL NOT WORKING. OCCURRED SUDDENLY ON CITY ROAD. BROKEN CLOCK SPRING - EXISTING RECALL BUT MY CARS VIN NOT COVERED UNDER THE RECALL.
Steering, Electrical system, Air bags, Dec 23, 2017
THE CLOCK SPRING IN THE STEERING COLUMN DETERIORATED AND BECAME NONFUNCTIONAL IN A CAR THAT IS ONLY 3 YEARS OLD AND WITH ONLY 17000 MILES ON IT. THIS IS NOT AN OLD CAR, TO SPEND ABOUT $800 TO REPAIR A PART THAT IS STILL THIS NEW IS RIDICULOUS. THERE ARE PAST AND CURRENT INVESTIGATIONS INTO THIS EXACT PART WITH MANY MODELS, INCLUDING VARIATIONS OF OUR OWN.
