Transmission replaced three times, still not working properly, lunges into forward and reverse, and will drop into and out of high and low gear when driving. Sunroof leaked because the drainage tubing was not connected at factory causing water damage to leather seats and now mold is growing inside of vehicle, making it difficult to be inside and have had one sinus infection already.
2002 Volkswagen Beetle lights complaints
Page 2 of 2: complaints 11 to 14 of 14, newest first, as owners wrote them.
The turn signals to not work. Consumer has to remove the bulb and replace them to make them work. Vehicle has been serviced for the ongoing problem, and the dealer has only replaced the bulbs.*ak the consumer stated the bulbs that where replaced where not burnt out and the problem resides in the socket. The consumer stated that the connection between the socket and the bulb is not sound and therefore the bulb rattles. After tightening the bulb will work a few days and then the problem occurs again. The dealer just tightens the bulb but the problem is still there.
The epc light comes on the dash. I was told this is due to a brake light switch that will go out. This causes cruise control to go out, brake lights to not work, and difficulty getting your gearshift out of park or neutral.
When following this vehicle in bright sun it is impossible to see the brake lights or the turn signal lights on the back of the vehicle. The sun just washes then out. They need to be mounted vertically and not on a slope as they are now.
