Volkswagen India — Persistent ABS/ESP sensor problems

Address:Karnataka, Mangalore. VW-Bharath

VW Team!,
I own a VW Vento, though the car has an amazing road stability, drive comfort, it has a very poor electrical system. I vehicle has only run 20000 kms, and i have replaced the ABS sensors multiple times spending unecessary charges.

This is causing serious safety issues, when my vehicle is in idle position, the speedometer and RPM keeps rising and doors get locked automatically. While on road, the vehicle automatically accelerates and jerks, breaks do not work efficiently followed by gearbox issue just because of this so called ABS sensor.

I have escalated to the VW management, yet there is no response. When i addressed my concern, the manager agreed the problem and accepted he is not in position to help as the so called VW has not come up with a solution. This is embarrassing and disappointing as we customers have to go through such situations with no solution. None of the VW service centers are in position to provide a clear explanation as to why this issue keeps repeating.

This will be my first and the last VW product to ever use in India, and i will never recommend to anyone to purchase this prestigious brand who do not value customer feedback nor provide solution to such persistent issues.

- I have been regularly servicing my car at VW authorized service center.
- Out of 4 sensors, if any one of the sensors are down, parallely it will affect the remaining sensors resulting in additional costs.
