Touareg

  • 200 miles
When taking foot off of brake pedal, brakes hang up and make a squealing sound, indicating the brakes are not releasing as they should. V.w. told us to replace brakes to solve problem, did so and did not solve problem, wrote V.w. a letter and absolutely no response or concern from V.w. concerned could have brake failure in emergency.
