Description of the problem	Check engine light came on before 3,000 miles. Cylinder 2 misfire. Dealership fixed it on the 3rd try after getting vw involved. It was a faulty gas tank, leaking fuel into the lines. They replaced the tank and the charcoal canister. Lane assist feature severely malfunctions since day 1 of owning this car. Nearly every time i drive it, the vehicle steers itself into medians, into curves or intersections, into oncoming traffic, always while i'm actively driving straight. I contacted vw; they recommended having the system inspected. Dealership could find no problems with it, stating it was just a characteristic of the car. I will not just turn that feature off when i'm paying for it. I asked vw to buy the vehicle back, as it has increasingly become more dangerous for myself and my children. They denied my request. I have contacted the better business bureau in hopes of getting a more sensible outcome, but vw has only offered to settle my concerns for $2,500, which is not acceptable. This is an accident waiting to happen.
