My daughter was rear-ended in her 2017 Jetta while stopped. The other driver was going approximately 45 mph, forcing my daughter into the car in front of her as well, causing significant front impact and damage to the vehicle. The air bag did not deploy. The amount of impact seems as though the airbag should have deployed. She suffered a mild concussion and whiplash from the impact.

Battery died. Went to dealer in another vehicle to purchase a battery. Installed the new battery and now have an airbag light. Called dealer to learn how to reset airbag, and they said it requires a special tool to reset along with a service charge ($80 to $160). Should an airbag system require special tool and/or knowledge when the car is required to have them? Everything else is operating normally, but airbags are out of service.

I was parked and suddenly my car did not want to start, no warning lights came on before experiencing this issue. After bringing it to the dealership according to them battery needs to be replaced again and it has been only about 2 years or less from last replacement. This issue clearly needs to be address immediately as batteries should last for minimum of 3 years. Also after experiencing problems with the battery the airbag warning lights came on and Volkswagen dealership is stating I must replace faulty airbag indicator light and pay it from my pocket which I find unacceptable. This issue needs to be further investigated as airbag warning indicator can also be related to ' Volkswagen's clock spring problems'.

Car has 65K on it and has been acting up for at least 10K miles on the following items: 1. the airbag indicator light on dash went on for no reason and I had to pay a diagnostic fee for it to be reset. 2. the radio links to my phone only 50% of the time with a failure notice posted on the monitor. The bluetooth will still work but to connect with my cord to also charge, very inconsistent. 3. the tire dash light is constantly illuminated despite having the tires and monitors checked several times. 4. the back up warning indicator has recently stopped alerting me and I came within inches of backing into a car today. I would like my dash to be error message free and my radio reliably working via my phone cord. I have tried different cords, purchased new tires and monitors, and the same issues continually occur. This all occurs when the vehicle is powered on, does not matter if it is parked or being driven.

I just bought a used 2017 Volkswagen Jetta gli a month ago, and the airbag light just illuminated this past Friday, along with no steering wheel controls working, and no horn. I called the place where I purchased it from, and they pretty much said oh well. This is a safety concern, as it affects the airbag. Is there anything I can do?

The passenger side airbags deployed without provocation in the car I had just purchased on March 21, 2017. I had just pulled to a stop to allow a passenger to disembark in the parking lot of a convenience store. The airbags deployed making a horrific noise and engulfing the inside of the car with white smoke. The cause of the deployment is unknown. The car did not collide with anything. The problem was reported to the dealership on April 5, 2017 and to the corporate headquarters of Volkswagen on April 7, 2017. The case # is 170305419. To date the car has not been solved. No one seems to have an explanation for what happened, and the car is still stilling on the lot of the dealership where it was returned.
