Description of the problem | I was sitting with my car parked in a school pick-up line, no-idle zone, so i had my vw atlas running on it's battery. The battery died out of the blue after a few minutes. There seems to be an ongoing battery issue with my vehicle as it has had a hard time turning over this past week. This car is only 1 year old and shouldn't be facing this issue. I'm glad i wasn't in an intersection when it happened, as i've read has happened to others. I'm taking it in to vw for inspection, but it sounds like i'm one of many who is running into the vw battery issue and i wanted to make it known. |
