2019 Volkswagen Jetta Other Problems

The 2019 VW Jetta has a MASSIVE safety issue that is caused by the Andriod Auto feature/software within the vehicle. When driving (for about 45 minutes - 60 minutes) the Android Auto feature will shut off when a cell phone is fully plugged into the vehicle (via USB cable). Therefore, the Android Auto issue is fully unavailable for drivers.

As I was driving on the highway 101 in Bay Area California, suddenly the sunroof glass exploded and the fragments were deposited on the under cover. No weather related issues at the time. Did not feel any debris hitting the car either.

Moonroof exploded leavin shards of glass all over, no rocks hit car no bumps no explanation, I was just driving on a flat surface around 30 MPH, I heard a loud explosion and glass was everywhere including my arms and face. I nearly caused an accident with the sudden explosion.

Like MANY people have experienced, I was driving on the highway when the sunroof glass suddenly exploded. It was terrifying and the startled reaction could easily have caused a serious highway speed crash. There was no obvious reason for the failure of the glass but having shattered glass fall in my lap was scary.

I have a 2019 Jetta R line Series, last year in the winter time the casing for the driver side mirror melted. I went 2 times to Volkswagen, and to other body and paint shops and no one has seen anything like this before? Finally I had to file a claim for Vandalism.

While driving about 70mph on the highway, car in motion, going straight, not turning, I hear a loud pop. The sound was similar to a gun shot. In fact, it was so loud it startled me, causing me to swerve to the left, almost hitting the car in the lane to the left of me.

Sunroof spontaneously exploded and shattered into pieces while moving.

Forward collision assist system unabailable

Rear trunk lid does not remain open resulting in the lid crashing down on my head when I'm putting stuff in the trunk or taking stuff out of the trunk.

My 2019 Volkswagen Jetta cannot be refueled — gas nozzle clicks off instantly or overflows. The check engine light came on, and VW Corporate confirmed code P00FE, indicating a failure of the EVAP system vent valve. This is a sealed emissions component integrated with the fuel tank.

On hot days, has happened multiple times. At parking lot, car did not turn on first two attempts, finally when on, then electrical shuts off. Starter system faulty message service vehicle.

After starting the vehicle it simply stalls from the beginning. I have to continuously press the gas petal to get it to go. Once it is running and I come to a complete stop it will stall again when I try to go forward and process repeats itself.

When I'm driving the car will just stall out of nowhere, then after this happens I would start the vehicle back up and it will cut off

I have a 2019 vw jetta gli and the car stalled while I went coming to a stop or preparing to turn, even with the clutch pressed and the car in neutral it happens like 5 times per day

While I was driving on the highway, the EPC light came on and the car began to lose power. It went into "limp" mode and lost all oil. I had it diagnosed at VW Carlock North Nashville.

I purchased a new 2019 VW Jetta GLI. Since the first day I bought the car four years ago, whenever I call someone or receive a call, and my iPhone is plugged in to the USB socket to connect to hands-free calling, the person on the other end hears a very big echo and voice lag. 100% of the time this happens.

I took my car in for recall repairs and they repaired all but the one listed on this site which seems kind of important

Emergency brake engages while driving the car with nothing else on the road. Door locked on her and she had to climb thought the passenger side door. Received several more malfunction alerts.

Front passenger door panels rattle a lot when playing music. Makes it impossible to determine whether or not the rattling is from the door or some other safety critical component of the car

Hello on aug 21, 2020 we purchased a used jetta from napleton volkswagen of sanford. At the time we asked if there were any open recalls on the vehicle and the salesperson responded no. We did a VIN search on the vehicle at your web site and we see no open recalls.

Around 35 MPH, I hear a grinding noise (not exactly sure where it's coming from). I did call the dealership but was told this is normal. Seems like I'm not the only one.

Jetta 2019 makes a grinding noise when putting the gear on reverse(manual car). Even if stationery for more than 3 seconds it makes a grinding noise. There is something defective on the car that the dealership is hiding from me.

While either stationary or in motion, and no matter where the vehicle is, there is a pronounced rattling that comes from the front passenger side door, and occasionally from the driver's side as well, when the radio is turned up to an enjoyable volume. This is a potential safety hazard as it's a rather irritating phenomenon that distracts the driver while operating the vehicle.

At complete stops (6 speed manual transmission) occasionally the engine stops. It has happened countless times while in traffic. Engine turns off but everything electronic is still operating.

While in neutral, the engine shuddered a little and then cut off. This has happened multiple times. Most recently I was stuck in the middle of an intersection while I had to restart my car.

On very cold days (below 10 degrees f), the car does not produce heat. My wife drove it 20+ minutes without the temperature gauge ever moving. This problem poses a safety threat because of inability to defrost the front windshield, and threat of hypothermia.

Took my car in for an oil change and the dealership notice my transmission was leaking. Also have been making a grinding noise since I bought it.

The person on the other end of a phone call made via cars bluetooth and carplay, will hear an echo of themselves. The dealership replaced the radio, but the issue remains.

Since day one of ownership, the front speakers on my 2019 jetta r-line have sounded abnormal/defective. There is a huge thread on reddit regarding this issue and is apparent upon all trim levels. This rattling sound is exponentially more noticeable on the front passenger side.

The panoramic sunroof randomly shattered while driving. Nothing hit it, and it wasnt opened or cracked.

When switching the gear in reverse. The car's reverse transmission locks then all of the sudden makes big thump sound and sudden rush of torque/power burst while reversing. It nearly hit a pedestrian if I wasn't careful

Recall emmissions on the evap purge valve with hose assembly. I am having issues under this recall for the 2019 Volswagen Jetta only my VIN number is not included in the recall but I am experiencing the same code and issues. Volkswagen will not honor the recall because my VIN is not included on this overwhelming problem they have with this issue.

My starter and gear shift have been malfunctioning, the starter barely turns over and the gearshift sends out a warning to only exit the vehicle in ‘P’ position…

When accelerating from 1st gear to 2nd gear, the gear gets stuck.. Rpms spike high and the car won't go any faster until it gets unstuck. This has caused issues while in traffic, nearly getting ran over by cars behind me.

There is a yellow triangle caution light keep coming up and it stated that I should park safely and please service vehicle. I think its the shift level causing that warning ️ to appear.

I keep getting a message on my dash saying ONLY EXIT VEHICLE IN “P” Position. Please Service Vehicle.

I know there is a Shift Lever Micro Switch Recall for the Volkswagen Jetta up to the year 2018. My car is the 2019 model and I am getting the error message for this issue. Can the recall be expanded to include the 2019 model?

Unknown, there has been no remedy for this recall for more than a month

USB connection is really loose and my cord always falls out or looses connection

I have had many issues with the key fob. It is often very difficult to lock or unlock the car unless I am within 5 feet of it and the car does not respond well to the fob signal. Additionally, on numerous occasions while the fob has been in my pocket, due to the poor design of the fob, the trunk has inadvertently opened up.

I recently purchased this vehicle brand new and within exactly one week while driving on the freeway there was a loud pop like glass being hit. There were no other vehicles around or wind with flying debris. It turned out to be the glass between the windshield and sunroof.

I'm reporting a potentially dangerous situation with the 2019 jetta. We traded in our 2016 jetta which had a complete infotainment voice activated system. I'd say "play jethro tull" and the voice activation would play jethro tull songs.

2019 jettas with a production date before january 2019 have trunk lids that need to be pushed all the way back or you risk having the trunk lid fall on your head causing possible injury.

Trunk has randomly opened numerous times even after it has been fully closed. This has happened while I'm driving or while the car is parked, and the trunk just becomes loose and slightly ajar. Immediately after, I will close the trunk, which secures it, but then at some point it becomes loose and open again.
