Tiguan

  • 4,500 miles
Bought new 2009 Volkswagen Tiguan 2009 in June. First 4 weeks of owning the vehicle heard faint noises from brakes. While in traffic at a stop light, the car ABS system came on and the dashboard lit up. Car was unable to move and locked up totally. Car was dragged onto a tow truck and had to be soaped off the tow truck. Volkswagen is still trying to diagnose the car to understand the failure.
