I took my 2012 vw eos to them for a clock spring failure which is under a recall. They told me that it did not fall under the recall because they put a dust cover over the clock spring in 2015. I told the that there is no way the mechanic who did the work could guarantee that no debris got into the clock spring during the 3 years prior to the dust cover being installed. I also told them that the feds opened another investigation in oct 2017 for vw not doing enough to fix the problem with the poorly designed part in 2015. I told the manager at the dealership about this and he said there was nothing he could do. He said that when the dust cover was put on they never got close to the clock spring. I told him that they didn't have to get close to the clock spring because debris had already gotten into the clock spring during the 3 years prior to it being installed which compromised the clock spring leading to the premature failure of the clock spring. I don't know if he understood what I was saying or was just blowing me off.

The vw safety recall 15v483 - safety recall 69l2 on the clock spring- vw did their "fix" when I took it in 2016, however the steering wheel clock spring went bad (loss of steering control when backing up- also controls steering wheel controls such as cruise control) still- when I contacted vw service they ran my VIN and stated the problem was taken care of under the 2016 recall and it would only be fixed for cost. - obviously it did not take care of it. I took it into a private vendor of german cars who replaced the clock spring - total cost $543.98 I feel that vw needs to expand this recall as they didn't do enough

Takata recall it's been over a year. Today, before filing this, I called the dealer one last time to check on remedy. They said the part was in, come on down it will only take an hour. I drove the 20 miles only to be told, "sorry, there's still no remedy for your model." I've been forced to drive a car that vw knows could explode in my face. No options were offered.
