2013 Volkswagen JETTA Suspension Problems, Complaints and Defects

Issue ID	1676078
Internal NHTSA #	11340412
Manufacurer	Volkswagen Group of America, Inc.
Brand	VOLKSWAGEN
Model	JETTA
Model Year	2013
File date	11/07/20
Component	SUSPENSION
Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	The left-front suspension partially collapsed while making a turn at low speed into a parking space. I drove short distance to my mechanic who told me: a) there were breaks at both ends and the center of the left-front spring and breaks at both ends of the right front spring, b) the center break in the right spring would have pierced the tire if it had rotated a bit more, c) this failure is occurring on so many vw's that there is a back-order on springs, so it cannot be repaired at this time. This would have been extremely dangerous if the suspension had collapsed at higher speed or if the tire had been pierced.

Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.
