I purchased vento on 2017 and my registration number is kl 60 l 9377. Last month my car shown abs complaint. On 16.09.19 i visit phoenix kannur showroom where my car purchased. They checked and informed me that there was a electrical problem they need to one day to rectify the same. They informed that they book a slot for my car on next monday (23.09.19). On previous day i just enquire about my car service schedule then they informed me that they didn't booked for service. Then they booked another slot on 28.09.19. On just day before they called me and informed that parts was not came. They changed my service to 07.10 19. On 5th they called and informed that 07.10.19 is a public holiday service is not possible. Then they booked another slot on 21.10.19. On 19.10.19 they called and informed me that their software updation is going that will not service any vehicle till 28.10.19.

Vw recommend pirelly tyres, why???
4 months back i changed all my tyre to pirelli based on vw's recommendation.
My tyre got busted during a long travel. It was not in a repairable condition.
Went to vw for changing it as its in unconditional warrenty.

After long argument with them, i had to pay 20% for the cost of it.

Not sure why i payed this money. Even vw guys also not able to explain. If they talking 20% for wear, then i dont think there is a 20% wear on it.

I have been hearing many cases of pirelli tyre like this. I think this tyre is not suitable for indian road.

Please go rather with mrf tyres which is costing only 3200rs. Where as pirelli cost you 6200rs.

Just a question to vw, for what basis are you suggesting this tyre to vw after sales if you are not putting this tyre for a new car.

We had purchased volkswagen polo in july 2016 and car registration no. Is mh 14 fm 9938. We took loan from sbi to buy a car. We got the rc from volkswagen without hypothecation. To comply banks audit we had to submit the original rc to volkswagen, nerul. Since jan 2017, i have been following up with them for updated rc but no response from them. I have visited rto also but it seems they have not even submitted the rc to rto for updation. Now my loan is also closed.
Please resolve this on priority. Provide me the original rc

Hi,
Even after several complaints to VW (Ref no. CCR192154: Volkswagen Customer Care ) no response from VW team.
I was travelling to Trivandum from Ernakulam in my VW Vento (KL-29-G-3919). The fuel injector warning swas soon on and I was forced to stop in the Highway during midnight. This is for the third time the same issue is popping up.

I hv put my car for service at nerul service station the response is very slow. It is 2 days now the car is at service station.9th oct the car is given for service just 1 year old car and they say the battery is leaking, during inspection last week at another service station in pune - vidyot motors there was no leak detected in the battery. I do not understand this policy of battery renewal or it is just fooling with us

I own a may 2011 vw vento diesel highline car. Car registration number is kl-35-c-2525. I am regularly doing all periodic services with vw workshops and maintaining the car in very good condition. There are even no single scratch in exterior, interior and under body. Car runs only 47, 000+ kilometers. I opt this car in 2011 by thinking vw is one of the world's largest automobile manufacturer so i will get a world class product. But my actual experience was different. I faced lots of complaints like ac water leakage inside cabin, coolant leakage, starter failure, fuel injector failure, frequent abs sensor failures, suspension problems and steering rack complaint during these last 8 years.

Since last few months, i noticed a different behavior like car idle rpm raising to 1050 (800 is normal) frequently. Sometimes radiator fan also running in full speed when idle rpm becoming 1050. Car voltage is fluctuating always within the range 12.2 to 14.5 and it is fluctuating in each and every seconds. The car was get checked by vw workshop and they told like issue is with the car alternator. Car alternator is not producing sufficient voltage so ecm is increasing the idle rpm to produce enough current. Service center told like this issue is common with vw cars and several customers reported same problem. They told like you can use the car as no resolution available other than alternator replacement. They advised to ignore car idle rpm increasing and voltage fluctuating issues.

Me and my family using many non-vw cars since 1990 but never faced these kind of issue with any those cars.

Car alternator is normally a life long device as it lasts the life of a car. From the talk with vw service center it is came to know that this is a common issue with vw cars.

As it is a manufacturing defect, i request vw to kindly replace the alternator in free of cost as a goodwill.

Dear sir,
Our car wolkwagon vento no. Is mh12 ju5997 has been given for servicing in the month of june. After servicing we understood that our blue tooth in the car is not working which was working previously. To fix this problem the company removed the system from car and told us that they have sent it to chennai to solve the issue. But after continuous follow up the company only responding that we are still in the process to solve the issue. The october has already started and if i dont get my issue resolved in this week then i will file a suite in consumer court. I have kept my patience till date. Kindly look into this immediately otherwise i may raise this issue on social media as well.
Regards

Dear Sir/Mam,

I bought Vento DSG with lot of passion to drive a VW in 2016 and one fine day in 2019 July i could not move my vehicle singnalling to stop it. Contacted the service centre and moved the vehicle to carriage on 2nd July 2019. Till date no improvement in service. They say its a Mechatronic problem. Its almost two full month gone. There is no firm answer from the service centre.

Please help them to delive the vehicle soon with your support. I bought it to drive and not to keep in carriage. Shocked to see VW service centres are not equiped for a hightech service like mechatronics issue.

Please help to deliver my vehicle.

Regards

1. My polo car mh43ar6964 purchased on december 2014 and driven 23000 kms only.
2.in the year 2018, abs sensors were replaced.
3. Now again the abs sensors has gone bad and need replacement.
4. We think your abs sensors have quality issues and you need to investigate thoroughly.
5.in my 40 years of driving experience i have driven more than 15 cars from all the reputed manufacturers such as toyota, skoda, maruti, audi, honda, ford, fait, we never heard of abs failure.
6. Please refer our case of head of quality control and servicing in parent company.

I had my car serviced a few months ago, it cost about ₹ 400000 in the car, the service center in kota does not do well for the car, the dealer girdhar harassed me very much, he damaged my car completely. He has given lies in everything and tries to charge extra. My car is getting damaged again and again, i am very upset, now i am thinking of going to court.

The vehicle was completely stoped and locked when the vehicle is in moving after that i contacted with vw vijayawada helpline, the vehicle was picked up with toe vehicle and did some thing, the vehicle delivered on 21st late evening, my driver observed that the condition of the vehicle is not in order and intimated, later i personally drove the vehicle and observed that the gears are not changing according to the speed and moving with first gear with engine roaring sound after that too malfunction exhaust symbol is showing, again i sent the vehicle to vw workshop and lodged the complaint, they told that we don't have some spare parts to check and # the exact complaint, as soon we received the spare parts we will intimate you there after you again put the vehicle for rectification.
This is the vw vijayawada workshop position, i spent nearly rs 37000.00 (Inr) including toe away charges.

The vehicle is with me at my compound in unusable condition.

I observed that vw vijayawada workshop neither trained nor experienced mechanic is available.
Please reply what i have to do.

I bought volkswagen vento petrol 23/may/2018. All of sudden in midway felt low pick-up in car and approached service center. They checked and informed clutch plates got damaged (Only in 18k km) due to inaccurate driving in dense traffic while pressing clutch for long time. But there was no such instance where car was driven in dense traffic while pressing clutch for long time. I have doubt whether defective/poor quality clutch plates were installed instead of advanced hydrolic clutch plates. Tried to approach volkswagen many times but no response till now.

Iam raghu from hyderabad, as volkswagen is recommonding pirelli tyres for customers in their service centers, due to soft side walls, the tyres is not at all tolerating for indian roads.

Two days ago i was on driving on high way, due to very small impact on the road, the tyre got busted due to side wall damage and car dragged 10ft away from road, it was 10pm in the night and i had to stay on the road with small kids till 1pm unitll my friend has come with mechanic.

After inspection mechanic said that these tyres are very soft and you cannot use those tyres any more on your car.

The tyre was barnd new and i drived 2000kms only after fitting the tyres.
I have requested service center to replace all 4 tyres with any other brand good with side wall, but they are not

Hi,

My volkswagen polo highline needs to be inspected. The car is showing needs inspection as well. When contacted volkswagen kozhikode (Phoenix) they gave me date october 19. Should i stop using my car for 1 month to get it inspected??. Pathetic service
After buying car spending and taking extended warranty too, to receive such a poor service option is something which cannot be accepted for any reason. If you are not able to fulfill service requirement. Why are you selling cars. Completely disappointed
Vehicle no kl19h2556

Expect a quick action for this.
