What owners wrote
Driver's seat airbag is defective. This was discovered when the VW dealer repaired the steering wheel airbag on recall. I've researched the seat airbag and taken to an independent master auto mechanic who told me the wiring to the seat airbag is getting caught on the drivers seat track. Definitely, an assembly design defect that VW refuses to acknowledge. There is an internet full of identical driver's seat airbag issues.
I have replaced my clock spring twice in 3 years, at the same dealership, southeast VW in santa ana, ca. My steering wheel will make a noise and all controls will stop working and airbag light will turn on. I brought my car in for the airbag recall and they are now stating the clock spring is broken and are wanting to charge me $541.
