What owners wrote

Would like to know why we were never informed of the 3 recalls on our 2015 VW gti. Started investigating after our 2015 VW passat has the bad airbags in them. Also own the gti and we investigated to see if the bad airbags are in there too. That is when we found problems with the fuel pump which was recalled in june 2015, we were never notified, also a fuel leak of an ignition source...never notified and a loose stabilizer link in the steering. Who wants to drive this car.

July 2016

I had my car's suction pump replaced when it was recalled. As far as I know, it could damage the charcoal canister filter due to fuel accumulation. Several months after suction pump was replaced, I had a check engine light which turned out to be a leaking charcoal canister. Tried asking for a refund from VW but they said they can't give me a refund as the recall was already closed.
