Takata recall, the doors opening mechanism in cold weather won't allow you to close your door. This is a serious safety hazard. Upon researching this problem I found that this has been happening to volkswagen since at least the 2000s models. I had just went out of my house and gotten into my car when I notice that the door wouldn't open from the outside but would from the inside. I then went to close my door and it wouldn't close. About an hour of my car on with the heat on full blast the door was finally about to click shut.

Inoperative drivers door lock when locking with the key fob remote. Driver side door will not lock with the key fob, nor will it with the button inside the car. It will only lock with the key sometimes. But even then, probably 50% of the time it doesn't lock with that. Car will not lock while you are sitting inside, or driving. Not very safe when you are going through dangerous cities'.. Especially if you are unaware when this defect is not going to allow you to lock your door, if needed. Isn't that what a lock is for- safety and security? This is a known problem, and has been for a while- within previous years. Volkswagen is obviously just refusing to do anything about it. When I took it to the vw mechanic, he seemed very well aware of this volkswagen issue.

I hit a tree on a city street and the airbag did not deploy that time either and I had a cut on my head I had injury to my knee and my achilles tendon both of which resulted in surgeries. I have had two other accidents since neither time neither I have had two other accidents since and the air bags did not deploy. Both of those were in parking lots. I am 84 and have fallen twice since the accident because of my injuries and sustained head trauma and memory loss. I will try to locate the accident date. It was in 2016.

While driving through high wind, the driver side mirror plastic protector fell off. The AC unit needed complete replacement costing 1600 and now the ideal while turning on car is very high. Sound almost like it did when I had to take it in for the electrical recall in the last years. Doors are squeak when opening and closing. And while driving a noise that sound like chains rattles through out the car which is a very irritating sound.
