2017 Volkswagen Tiguan Body and structure Problems

“While driving at approx 30 MPH slowing down for a red light, on a city street, the panoramic sunroof exploded. Nothing struck the car, no other traffic was within 200 yards, and nothing above. It sounded like a pop, then glass shards fell in rear passenger seating area. No one was injured. Sunroof is raised up, indicating pressure forced it up as opposed to something hitting from above.”

“I suffered a front-end collision on 11/15/2022 in my 2017 VW Tiguan. I was going on I-66 in Virginia 40-45mph back to college at Howard University, and a car stopped suddenly after being cut off, but it was raining horribly and I was in half a foot of water, so even with braking, I hydroplaned into the vehicle in front of me, causing insubstantial damage to them but very significant damage to my vehicle as well as whiplash.”

“Nothing happened, simply I received the letter from Volkswagen and an important information about compliance recall 69v2 - driver airbag. This notice was sent to me in accordance with the national traffic and motor vehicle safety act. Volkswagen has decided that certain 2017-2018 model year Volkswagen Tiguan limited vehicles fail to conform to federal motor vehicle safety standard (fmvss) no. 208 occupant crash protection. Their records show that I am the owner of a vehicle affected by this action.”

“The contact owns a 2017 Volkswagen Tiguan. The contact stated that upon entering the vehicle after a rainstorm, the contact became aware that the interior of the vehicle was flooded, and that water had entered the vehicle through the sunroof. The contact stated that the air bag warning light was illuminated. The vehicle was taken to the dealer, who diagnosed a failure with the sunroof drainage system. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure, a case was opened, and the contact was referred to the NHTSA Hotline for assistance. The failure mileage was 66,000.”
