Problem noticed december 12th when one by one all the warning lights came on including the air bag, the stabilization system, the headlight system and others. Then when I stopped at a red light, the car would not shift out of 1st gear. I ended up having to have my vehicle towed back home. The next day a mechanic scanned it and said there was a problem in the emitions system which disabled the car by making it not able to drive.
VW installed a radio spec for another model car in my vehicle the replacement part is a new part number this problem created a rolling screen on my display very distracting while driving I asked VW costumer care to replace the wrong part installed at there factory VW refused to cover the cost ,this is a safety issue when your main display in the car is flashing and the screen is rolling and will lead to accidents I believe VW should have fixed this as a urgent safety matter thats it is distracting their drivers
