| Description of the problem | Purchased a 2019 atlas se4motion. The air bag light went on immediately after purchasing the car. The suv had 40000 miles on it. This was on a saturday 12. 19. Brought car to dealer on 12. 21, vw said it was a modular problem. Car was fixed a week later but than air bags activated. The car was fixed again , problem was water built up in control module. I was told there was twisted tube. Need new modular and a/c drain. This was done and i picked up car and air bag light wento off again. Car is still in the shop. This seems similar to 2018 issues with airbag. I have notified vw corporate. |
