Since day one of ownership, the front speakers on my 2019 Jetta R-line have sounded abnormal/defective. There is a huge thread on reddit regarding this issue and is apparent upon all trim levels. This rattling sound is exponentially more noticeable on the front passenger side. You can notice this defect during any genre of music if the correct frequencies are apparent in the song you're listening too, the rattle gets louder if your volume is over 50%. I took my car to the dealership to have them document this widespread concern. Both the service advisor and lead foreman sat in my car with me and it was easy to replicate the issue using the balance/fader. The technician agreed that this is indeed a design flaw and ordering replacement components will only result in the same thing. At the end of my appointment the service advisor deemed the concern as a "normal characteristic" of the vehicle. It literally sounds like blown speakers or as if they are covered in liquid! I've only called VW customer care once about this and they refused to put me in touch with my regional VW representative. I'm planning to call them again, this is extremely disappointing as it's progressively getting worse.

Trunk has randomly opened numerous times even after it has been fully closed. This has happened while I'm driving or while the car is parked, and the trunk just becomes loose and slightly ajar. Immediately after, I will close the trunk, which secures it, but then at some point it becomes loose and open again.

Trunk lid does not stay open unless it is pushed up all the way, multiple passengers when using the trunk in different occasions were hit by the trunk lid. When traveling low speed on cruise control vehicle speed will be lowered when getting close to another vehicle in its lane but if the immediate car switch lane at the same time another vehicle get into your lane, the forward collision system has a delay in detecting is there vehicle there or may not identify the vehicle joining your lane as a vehicle immediately and may suddenly increase speed as no vehicle was detected and result in a rear-end collision.
