Sep 201442000 miUS $180 | Battery would not charge or start car, which I found odd for a 3 year old car with less the 50K miles. Turns out the dealer didn't agree, I had to buy a new battery even thought I bought this certified VW from this dealership! CC has a know issue for its drive train, the car has a very noticeable bump into gear when driving off from a stop. It is related to the electronic shift, when you come to a full stop the transmission shifts automatically in and out of gear. Rear door seals are prone to hold water. There is a poor design to the back edge of the strip where it meets at the window level. water funnels into the gap in the seal and after a rain you can see water weep out at the door sill's. |
