Volkswagen has issued an interim safety recall for certain VW vehicles. We believe this also incorporates VW Arteon. The Passenger Occupant Detection System (PODS) detects a malfunction, switches off the passenger airbag, displays an Airbag error and renders the passenger seat inoperable due to increased risk of injury. Iâm alerted by the illumination of the airbag warning light, an acoustic warning sound, an error message displayed on the instrument cluster. Iâve been to 2 Volkswagen Dealerships, they report this is a common concern noted and should be reported to NHTSA.

The contact stated while driving 50 MPH, the vehicle started shaking without warning.

The manufacturer was not contacted. The failure mileage was unknown.
Sunroof blew out at 70mph making a sound like a gunshot from within the car. Nothing externally or internally hit the glass. Sunscreen protected the passengers as 75% of the glass blew out and scratched the roof, trunk and back panels of the car traveling at highway speed. Car was under manufacturerâs original factory warranty but when the VW dealer contacted VW they denied it being a warrantable item despite the warranty book saying defective glass is warranted. My comprehensive auto insurance is paying for the new sunroof and extensive paint costs minus my out of pocket deductible.
