In June of 2021 my car had a warning light for the DPF filter come on and told me to follow the instructions in the manual to drive it on the freeway at certain RPMs to get it to clear well that didn-??t work and eventually the check engine light came on as well, I took it to the dealership and found out that the Diesel Particulate Filter was bad and needed to be replaced, the DPF was under an extended warranty because of the whole Dieselgate issue, my car had approx 95k miles or so on it when the filter was replaced along with my timing belt. Well six months later the DPF filter light came on again so I brought it back to the dealership that replaced it and they said it wasn-??t their fault and that now the glow plugs and thermostat needed to be replaced to get the filter to work so I spent a bunch of money fixing that and now just recently the DPF light and check engine light came on again so I brought it back to the mechanic and they said I needed a new O2 sensor and that would fix this problem, well the replaced the sensor and I drove away and now my Turbo blew which was incredibly scary cause my car lost all power and made a crazy siren noise as I tried to get to a safe area. and my car isn-??t driveable at all, my car only has 101,000 miles in it and it going to cost me over $3000 to fix the turbo when I just spent $600 to replace the sensor, $600 on glow plugs and themostat, and $1000 on the timing Belt. This is a lot of extra money to spend on a car in just one year. I don-??t think that the DPF filter should be giving me problems every 6 months. I-??m a single mom and I don-??t know what to do, I can-??t afford a new car but I also can-??t afford to keep fixing this one. My car is currently at the VW dealership waiting to be fixed and I hope I-??m not wasting my money just for it to break again. I-??m going into Credit card debt just to keep This car running at this point.

I have recently noticed that the 2015 - 2019 Jetta sportwagen been identified with a rear coil spring breaking issue and a recall will be issued April 19, 2019 - my 2010 Jetta sportwagen has recently experienced the same issue and I believe the recall should be expanded

Spring failed on pass front strut at highway speed, smooth road, causing tire to blow-out and wheel bearing to fail. Family in car including 6 week old. Barely could control car to safe stop. Lucky. Repairs will run over $1500. Dealer informed us that many VW and Audi cars are experiencing this, that they are worried and have informed VW they have a problem. He showed me three other failed springs. I kept mine. It has no signs of corrosion prior to failure - metal fatigue probably related to bad metallurgy, according to my dad who's an engineer.classic spiral fracture. Had to have car towed to VW dealer 150 miles from home - rent car for 2 weeks until repaired.
