2022 Volkswagen Taos Fuel System Problems

Your car is displaying a fuel pump recall code (23V214000), and the fuel pump has failed. Without a working fuel pump, your car won't be able to get fuel to the engine and won't run. The fuel pump will need to be replaced, which typically involves removing the fuel tank or accessing the pump from inside the fuel system.

My 2022 VW Taos suddenly began to lose acceleration and the check engine light and EPC light came on. Upon contacting the dealership, they said there is a recall on my car for the exact issues, however they do not have any parts to fix it and do not have an ETA of when it can be fixed.

Your 2022 Volkswagen Taos displayed an exhaust system malfunction warning light while driving, and you noticed engine oil on your driveway. When the dealer inspected for an oil leak, they discovered fuel was leaking from the vehicle instead.

Filled my tank with gas. Got into the vehicle and started if and could almost immediately smell gas in cabin. Thought maybe I got gas the wasn’t good.

The fuel door release actuator seizes up and does not release fuel door. This vehicle does not have a manual fuel door release, therefore if you run out of gas you are not able to manually open the fuel door.

See attached document for complaint

While driving the car threw a code for EPC and throttle became extremely un responsive. I had to limp to the side of the road and re start the car. The code is for “start/stop” this car has had many recalls and issues since I bought it.

Serious lag in acceleration. This is very dangerous when changing lanes or entering traffic. It will suddenly lurch forward.

I purchased this vehicle a year ago for my 17 year old daughter. The initial test drive through slow suburban streets was not sufficient to identify the major acceleration issue that has persisted while owning this car. There is a significant lag in response time when pressing the accelerator.

There is a major lag in throttle response after slowing then attempting to speed back up. For example, a car in front of me turns right at an intersection while in travel so I slow down. After stepping on the accelerator to speed back up, it can take 5-7 seconds before there is any response.
