Power windows fail to operate. Front driver window is making noises leading me to believe it too will fail soon. First window was repaired by dealer under extended warranty.
- Tempe, AZ, USA
Power windows go all the way up then come back down, all windows do this intermittently. When left rear window is rolled down by button on door or on the front control panel it activates the factory alarm and locks all doors (it does not sound) you have to stop, roll down drivers window, turn off engine and reach outside and manualy disalarm car. I have filed a complaint with Volkswagen they wanted a diagnostic wich I payed $80 for from stevens creek VW, I have to send this in and they will tell me if they can help me or if I have to pay for it. I have done research and there have been numerous problems related to this in all states, have you heard of this and if VW does not help me is there anything I can do? thank you
