Chrome trim around the DSG shifter has peeling chrome which is razor sharp. It has cut my hand deeply and is a safety hazard to me and my family.

July 2020 Injury

2017 VW golf alltrack: have had this car for four months now and just had three days worth of rain here in michigan. The front of the headliner is completely soaked on both a-pillars and around the overhead console of the vehicle. Dealership said it was more than likely welds that didn't get smoothed down and therefore pinch the tubes that drain the trough in the sunroof area not allowing it to flow back into the opening in the car. In other words, VW sold me a car with a known defect!
