2010 Volkswagen TIGUAN Electrical System Problems, Complaints and Defects

Issue ID	1026811
Internal NHTSA #	10555080

Brand	VOLKSWAGEN
Model	TIGUAN
Model Year	2010
File date	13/11/13
Component	ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	While driving the fault indicator light came on saying that the right front headlight was out. After parking for a period of time and restarting the car, the mmi was indicating numerous faults with about half of the lighting on the right side of the vehicle. I took the vehicle to a vw dealer that did a diagnostic test and the result was that a fuse had melted into the fuse block and that was causing the light outages. The entire fuse block needed to be replaced and the total repair with labor was just over $600. 00. I called vw north america on 12-6-2013 and they say there is no recall for that issue on my vin and that of course if there is one in the future that i could possibly be reimbursed at that time for some or all of my expenses.
