Description of the problem | As i have seen in your database my passat has many of the same problems. My side mirrors sometimes do not unfold or function as expected. ( vw says there is no fix ) my backup camera sometimes doesn't work ( vw says there is no fix ) my car stops for no reason thinking there is an object in front of it. Not only are these problems real the car did not register any faults. These problems happened all the time yet intermittently. Please note that my car was made in the usa. And exported to canada. I am in canada. Due to my youtube videos i have been contacted by several vw owners many in the usa that have had the same problems and vw is not doing anything for us. I know of some that have had their cars returned via the lemon law. These problems should not be ignored any longer. Https://www. Youtube. Com/watch? V=pgmjc2qpnoo https://www. Youtube. Com/watch?
