Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“I was recently involved in an accident where someone hit my side going about 35-40 MPH and none of the airbags were deployed. I drive my grandmother places because of the safety factor with my car and she was pinned in the car and not even her airbag went off. I think this is a disgrace on the part of vw and I don't even want to drive this car anymore. I spend $450.00 a month on this car and I am scared to drive it!”
