Passat SEL V6

  • Automatic transmission
  • 1,388 miles

New car purchased August 2016....three weeks later coolant light on. To dealership :Diagnostics: Faulty hose clamp and hose. Replaced hose and clamp; Performed vacuum coolant recheck. No leaks apparently found. Now today10 days after service: Coolant light is back on : reservoir not holding coolant. I want to emphasize that this is a new car. I have previously owned and currently own another VW....have never had this happen ...frustrating ..on a new car.
