I'm part of a class action lawsuit where I was denied after sending all of the pertinent information the attorney's requested. I have all documentation of the correspondence which was requested with contact information to the Volkswagen company and other recipients. The class action is "Engine Water Pump Settlement". The water pump was faulty in this vehicle and many others of this model. It was deemed a safety concern by the federal government of the United States. This has been in progress since 2019.

Driving a 2012 VW Cc with 57,000 miles. Driving on highway at 70 mph and attempted to pass a slow moving truck. Accelerated quickly and mid pass the engine lost power and immediately went into "limp mode" with ecr light activated on the dash. Pulled over safely and turned off the engine. After collecting myself, I started engine to drive off highway. Car would not start. I sat a few moments in panic and tried again. The car started and I drove with ecr light on to next exit. The car was sluggish with little acceleration. Pulled to gas station and turned off again. Restarted and the engine rpms ran higher in idle so I turned off the car again. Let it sit and restarted and drove to auto zone where they did a code tester and was told P0229 underboost turbocharger was issue. Auto zone employee said he had seen it many times and its a known issue with 2.0 turbo engines in VW and Audi. The report is attached. Auto zone reset the ecr light and the car was driven to final destination into Arizona with no additional issues yet. Researching I found the following link https://www.cargurus.com/cars/discussion-T23523_ds493841. this link expresses the opinions of many drivers over the years experiencing this issue and how unsafe and difficult to is to resolve with many folks experiencing thousands of dollars in repairs and never finding a remedy. I am worried and shocked that the car engine can be turned off by a computer with no bypass for the driver. Extremely dangerous while driving.

My car has been burning oil like crazy once it reached 95,000 miles. I've always go my oil changed on time professionally. I have to keep oil in my car because it burns so fast. When I accelerate black smoke comes out the tailpipe. I got my oil changed April 12th and by April 28th my engine shut off light was flashing..... checked the oil and the stick was bone dry.

The 2.0T tsi engine was made with a faulty timing chain tensioner which will fail and cause the timing chain to break causing immediate catastrophic engine damage putting the driver and occupants in danger because of loss of power and difficulty steering. I am extremely blessed that I noticed the car was acting funny and exited off the highway. It's ridiculous to me how the timing chain could cause that much damage to the engine. The engine obviously has been created with a faulty design, so now I'm expected to pay to replace a faulty engine with another faulty engine. It's extremely upsetting that after I sent my vehicle in for issues with a recall, fuel pump, that my vehicle would just self destruct like this

The vehicle in question has had over two years of unresolved engine and transmission problems. The vehicle has been repeatedly return to the dealership only to be told that what it was there for not to be the problem but other things have been found and thats the problem. After paying for that repair only to bring it back for the original complaint. This is the pattern with the engine leaking oil and the leak never found to the car not going above 10 mph. Wthin the last 5 months the car has been in the shop for the same issue of no power and rattling shaking transmission. Three to four weeks at a time. In the past the car has been returned to the dealership once a week for the oil to be check and filled to specs. Also within the past two years the entire engine has been worked on by the dealership and the transmission was blown up by a technician being careless in making a repair. In repair orders I have the major work that has been done on this vehicle.in talking to the dealership and Volkswagen the only thing thats being said that the car is too far out of warranty. The issue that generates this complaint is that now Volkswagen dealership has the car and it needs a engine and transmission and wants between $8,000-$11,000. This is a major problem because of the issue that have been having over the period of time. The consumer should not be carrying the burden of this type of repair because of the history of the cars in question (which is the Volkswagen 2012 Cc). All of the problems have occurred while the car was in motion. The events with this car started in the year 2016 and the problems have been constant evry since up until this current date.

Stalling, and will start and stall - epc light on dash

- Monroe Twp, NJ, USA

The car has 50,000 miles on it and one day I started the car in the morning and it was quite as it should be then it started it to misfiring and start to shut off. I took it to the mechanic and the dealer, they both confirmed that the timing belt needs to be replaced and I shouldn't be starting the car until I get it fixed. I can not believe that this major problem will occur on a car that has a low mileage like mine.

Engine is turning over but only starting occasionally. When it does start, the epc and check engine/catalytic converter lights are illuminated. This is happening now after I had to figure out the fuel pump control module needed to be replaced...before there was a recalled issued at my own expense. Car ran fine earlier today, then when trying to leave my house, took an extended time to start. Shut it off to see if it was a glitch, and didn't start at all.
