2017 Volkswagen Tiguan Transmission Problems

Your 2017 Tiguan began leaking coolant about six weeks after Volkswagen performed an intake manifold recall repair. Your mechanic found that the water pump was physically damaged during that recall work, likely from a tool strike. A new water pump was installed but failed immediately, suggesting an underlying pressure problem in the cooling system under the intake manifold that hasn't been diagnosed or fixed despite the vehicle being at the dealership for seven weeks. Getting the cooling system properly diagnosed and repaired at the root cause will be necessary to stop the leak and restore safe operation.

The gas pedal stopped responding during high velocity highway drive. Luckily, I was able to steer the car safely to an emergency stop. I was able to shift gear to N and than to P but the car rocked violently when I tried to switch back to D. The car was towed and a mechanic inspection suggested that it's a transmission fail.

WHEN DRIVING DOWN AN INCLINE ON THE ROAD, THE CAR WILL DOWNSHIFT SO HARD THAT THE RPMS WILL GO REALLY HIGH FOR A FEW SECONDS. I AM NOT SURE IF THIS IS NORMAL OR IF IT IS OK FOR THE ENGINE.

PURCHASED 05/19/2017. HORN AND DASHBOARD LIGHTS DID NOT WORK IN APPROXIMATELY 12/2017. WAS REPAIRED AND TOLD WAS A COIL PROBLEM. THEN ON 04/12/18 IT SUDDENLY FLASHED ALL THE DASHBOARD AND STEERING WHEEL LIGHTS IN THE MIDDLE OF MY DRIVING AND SUDDENLY DIED ON ME WHEN I TURNED INTO MY DRIVEWAY AND THE STEERING WHEEL GOT LOCKED.
