Description of the problem	I bought the vehicle on 02/15/2013 it only have 10,000 miles on it. Then as soon as it hit 68,500 miles and went out of warranty. I had just had it serviced for the last time under warranty on 6/21/2019 at 67,996 miles. The timing chain snapped and bent all the valves. I had to rebuild the engine. Which coasted a fortune. I saw that their were a bunch of class action suites going on against volkswagen for similar issue but was dealing with a family crisis that ended poorly and went into a state of depression from the death of multiple family members back to back so i never followed up on it. Now my car is at 80,000 miles and seems to be experiencing electrical problems as well as problems with the cd player it progressed and now all disk spaces say error and i cant play cds. When i could get it working it was fine until turning off the car then opening the door i heard noises from the player when starting the car it says error in all the disk spaces and half the time wont even let me load the disk. This is ridiculous. This car is my biggest regret of my life. Its a night mare there have been more issues but these are the biggest and most recent issues.
