Touareg

  • 86,000 miles
The contact owns a 2008 Volkswagen Touareg. In cold weather, the starter would fail while attempting to drive the vehicle. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic who replaced the relay in the fuse box, but the failure recurred. In addition, each time it rained, water entered the vehicle floor under the driver side seat, which caused the accelerator and brake pedals to freeze. The vehicle was not taken to the dealer or repaired. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failures. The approximate failure mileage was 86,000.
