 Description of the problemI purchased my 2018 tiguan on june 26th, 2018. On june 27th, as i was driving on the expressway i heard a loud rattling noise coming from the passenger side of the car . The more i drove the louder it was . I didn't know exactly where it was coming from. I was headed to the dealership anyway because my car was missing 3 items from the truck. The paint protector wasn't done properly and the inside of the car wasn't clean. I spoke with my sales person once i arrived and we went to the service department and scheduled an appointment to get the car re-detailed inside and out along with them checking out the noise i was hearing. Thursday june 29, 10 am, i arrived and checked my vehicle in. I was told it would take a couple of hours to complete everything. It took 5 hours and they told me that the shift plate under the passenger seat was loose and it would take about 3 to 4 days for the part to arrive. I received a call on july 5th, stating the part came in and i was scheduled to come back in on saturday july 9th and that he would have a technician ride with me , since i was hearing the noise from the seat belt panel on both sides of the car. When i arrived, the technician rode with me to hear the noise and he agreed that it was coming from the seat belt panel. Technician drove 2 other demo cars since my car was driven by the owner. Fast-forward, i was told the demo cars sounded the same way and that he took the seat belt panel off, rearranged something , drove the car and didn't hear the noise. The service person explained that if i still heard the noise that it was nothing that could be done and i had to deal with the noise. Since my 3 year old daughter was with me , i didn't have time to go back and forth, i said ok and reported this issue to volkswagen.
