“Brakes are making a pulsating sound from when it was at 20000 miles , have been issues with the car from day 3 of owning it . Volkswagen refused to take the car back saying thats not a valid complaint.. Engine makes a rumbling or a grinding sound when it is at 35-40mph ! Car looses tire pressure every week. When going throught even a minor pothole it feels as if the struts were rammed on the road !! Insufficient lighting ! Drives almost like a bull ! Feels like its just dragging itself .... Awful to the core ! …”
