2010 Volkswagen Jetta Steering Problems

“2010 vw Jetta se not long after purchasing teh vehicle used in 2016, the ABS and ESC lights started coming on. We didn't really notice any change in the vehicle performance, but were concerned about the lights being on, especially since it concerned the brakes and stability. On 6/14/19 we took the vehicle to the local dealer to have this issue checked out. The receipt from that visit showed that the ABS pump and module had faults. The dealership recommended replacing both at a cost of $2,610. …”

“I went to drive to work and turned on my car. No radio. Nothing. No power to it. Absolutely nothing. No bluetooth for safe and hands free driving, nothing. Can't get it fixed for less than $1000. Nothing to explain what causes it. No blown fuses no anything. No explanation whatsoever.”

Both my wife and I have each been driving for more that 40 years and we have never experienced this degree of fragility in the wheels of any of our prior vehicles. …”

“We purchased this car two days ago for our 18 yo daughter and I did not notice the airbag light on. It was when she pulled into the driveway and tried to honk the horn that our attention was drawn to the light. It is at the dealer today having the clock spring repaired and costing $450.00. As I began to research the problem, I became aware that in 2015 vw had a recall on the clock spring of the cc and passat. I asked the dealer if this car would be covered under the recall and he said the Jetta was not under any recall. My reply, hmmm, I guess it's just a coincidence. …”
