Passat problems
Discussion
Mrs R5s parents have a Passat 2.0TDi on a 56 plate.
I borrowed it to go to the shops in and when I parked it up at Tesco it would not lock on the key fob, on the dash it was saying the door was open when it wasn't. Anyways we returned the car home and locked it by removing a cover on the handle and using the key.
Anyway since then they have had,
Airbag failure
Boot permanently locked
Alarm going crazy
Electronic handbrake applying itself at speed!
Anyway the car has been into VW and they are saying it will be fixed in 9 weeks, I think this is shit! They say that there is around 40 cars in the country with the same fault, does anyone know of this?
Could you reject the car? Its been in the shop more times than I car to remember.
Cheers.
