About These NHTSA Complaints:
The NHTSA is the US gov't agency tasked with vehicle safety. Complaints can be spread across multiple & redundant categories, & are not organized by problem. See the Back button — blue bar at the very top of the page — to explore more.
While driving my steering wheel controls stopped functioning to include my horn, airbag, esp, and traction control. After researching the web I found this is a common issue on all VW models and occurs around 40,000 miles. Apparently the VW clockspring in the steering column assembly has a design flaw, and there is no recall at this time.

Driving at 65 mph suddenly the steering wheel system was blocked. Become very hard to move the steering wheel & also very noise when I was trying to move it. The car was took to dealer and they said. That the steering gear box failed. Later on the customer service free phone line of VW said that was a quality issue. They said are not legally responsible because is not within warranty period. Cc VW car seems very unsafe car.
