2016 Volkswagen Tiguan Engine Problems

I have taken my 2016 VW Tiguan to a VW service center, and they have notified me of a faulty water pump in my car that is leaking coolant. This is endangering the engine of the car and its safety. There has been a class action lawsuit regarding this exact issue with VW in the case Zhao, et al. v. Volkswagen Group of America, Inc., et al., Civil Action No. 2:21-cv-11251. I have contacted the manufacturer VW several times regarding this issue, but they refuse to cover the costs of my repair as the mileage on my car is above their current warranty period. However, if this is a known issue with a faulty part, the manufacturer VW should be responsible for the costs of repairing the issue and maintaining the drivability of my car.

My 2016 Volkswagen Tiguan has only 49,000 and the water pumps went bad already never heard of this I brought many cars and never had any problems with water pumps especially so soon. I couldn’t drive for days because water pumps are so expensive and my is more than 30 mile away which causes my car to over heat and the antifreeze was leaking so much I didn’t want to get stranded out there so I didn’t drive much until I was able to replace the water pumps. It’s to my knowledge Volkswagens had water pumps defects issues and I feel Volkswagen needs to recall 2016 models because water pumps should last for over 100,000 miles or more. I brought this car used in good condition with only 34,000 on the car and now water pumps goes bad. I hope someone looks into this matter because this parts are very expensive on consumers and Volkswagen needs to pick up the bill not consumers..Thanks for your time.

MY VEHICLE EXPERIENCED AN INTAKE MANIFOLD FAILURE AND REQUIRED REPLACEMENT. THIS IS A WIDELY KNOWN AND DOCUMENTED ISSUE WITH OLDER VERSION VW INTAKE MANIFOLDS. THERE IS ALSO AN EXTENDED WARRANTY APPLIED TO VW INTAKE MANIFOLDS WHICH I HAVE ADDED AS A DOCUMENT BELOW. VW CLAIMS THAT MY INTAKE MANIFOLD IS NOT COVERED BY THE EXTENDED WARRANTY EVEN THOUGH MY CAR HAS THE SAME CCTA ENGINE AND SAME INTAKE MANIFOLD AS THE ONES DESCRIBED IN THE NOTICE. THE WARRANTY EXTENSION SHOULD APPLY TO ANY OF THE VW VEHICLES THAT HAVE AFFECTED INTAKE MANIFOLDS. THE INTAKE MANIFOLD WAS COMPLETELY REDESIGNED BY VW IN 2017 TO ADDRESS SPECIFIC ISSUES WITH THE OLDER VERSION OF THE INTAKE MANIFOLD AS DESCRIBED IN THIS VIDEO DONE BY A VW EXPERT AND DOCUMENTED UNIVERSALLY. AS YOU CAN SEE IN THE DATE AND RECORDS, THIS UPDATE WAS RELEASED AFTER MY 2016 VW TIGUAN WAS BUILT, SO MY CAR HAS THE OLD VERSION OF THE INTAKE MANIFOLD. THE OLD VERSION SKU IS 06J133201BD AND THE NEW VERSION SKU IS 06J133201BH WHICH I HAVE LINKED BELOW WHICH ADDITIONALLY SUPPORTS MY CLAIM. THE WARRANTY EXTENSION ON THE INTAKE MANIFOLD BY VW WAS TOO NARROWLY APPLIED SINCE THERE ARE MORE VEHICLES WITH THE SAME ENGINE AND SAME INTAKE MANIFOLD THAT ARE EXPERIENCING THE SAME ISSUE. PLEASE ADVISE VW TO EXTEND THE WARRANTY TO ALL AFFECTED VEHICLES INCLUDING THE 2016 VW TIGUAN.
