problem #1

Oct 202007

Eos 6-cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • 1 miles
Unlike other VW models, there is no way to buckle driver side seat belt without a twist in the seat belt. I took the car to the dealership to be fixed. They could not fix it. They contacted VW and we were told it is the way it was engineered. We compared it with another Eos, which had the same problem. We then compared it to a passat, which did not have this problem. In addition to being uncomfortable, I fear that it will decrease the effectiveness of the seat belt. I also think with the discomfort, people may not wear it.
