2022 Volkswagen Atlas Cross Sport Electrical system Problems

“While at a red light, stopped in traffic and at a stop sign the vehicle turns off and says to restart manually. Need to put in park and manually restart. Very dangerous when no one around me knows what I am doing. This occurred four (4) the times the last 4-YEARS. I will contact the dealer tomorrow as the latest random stop occurred today. A truly random occurrence with no warning.”

“My windows keep rolling down, parking break engages when going slow and I’m being told that there is currently not a fix for this. Websites and recalls say this could effect air bags. I’m concerned that this will lead to an accident/cause a safety concern so would like this well documented that I reached out.”

“I purchased my car in July 2022 and started having issues with it within 3 months. I’ve have my car at the dealer 4 times for them to look at… 1 - the brakes (grinding, scraping noise, squeaking that can be fetl in the pedal). I was told each time that the rotors and brake pads aren’t compatible. VW knows about the problem but doesn’t have a fix for it. They say they clean the pads and that the car is safe to drive (really?). 2 - the infotainment system. …”

“While driving less than 30 mph in slow traffic the automatic braking system engaged itself which caused me to almost get hit. Another time, I was in slow traffic less than 20mph both sides of the street were filled with cars driving and my automatic brake began to light up and the brake was engaging but I was still able to keep driving the car despite what was happening with the automatic brakes. In normal driving conditions whenever I press on the brakes the vehicle does not stop right away. …”

“Slowing down as I pulled into a turning lane. The vehicle lost power and cut off with a warning light saying please restart engine manually. I did start engine manually to begin with. I had to throw my car in park in the middle of the road. And restart it. The vehicle restarted and I got out of the way with my kids in the car. And after continuing to drive the vehicle feels like it has no power. This is not the first incident my car has 53k miles on it. Has had 2 gear shifters, 2 auto stop start relays and gone through several batteries”
