Date Component Summary Severity Mileage
Sep 2021 SEATS The red strap is extremely too easy to pull and is super accessible for children to reach. My son in the 3rd row pulled the strap and my son in the middle row flung forward. Had he had been literally an inch farther up, he would’ve been seriously injured. Something needs to be done about this. There was a viral post on social media about this not long ago. The straps either need a safety feature where they only work if the car’s door is open or parked. Or the straps just simply need to be placed somewhere else and not easily accessible to children placed in the 3rd row. This is supposed to be a family vehicle. Please fix it.

Jul 2021 FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM When driven on road, the car suddenly stopped without any sign. The car was towed to the dealer. I was told that the fuel pump wiring was chewed by rodents, so the car suddenly doesn't have any fuel at all. This incident is very life-risking. The fuel pump wiring is under the rear seat. I am not sure whether it is the defective design of the car which makes the fuel pump wiring without any protection is easy to be chewed by animals. Moreover, I keep the broken wiring which does not look like chewed ones.

Jul 2021 SEAT BELTS The 2nd row driver's side seatbelt buckle on my 2018 VW Atlas became deformed and broken. I took the vehicle to the dealership because a recall was made on these buckles for becoming unusable and unsafe due to child restraint interference breaking them. Volkswagen refused to fix the recalled buckle, citing it must have been an outside influence, however only child restraints have been used in seating positions, nothing has been done in the vehicle otherwise to substantiate these claims. We are the only owners of the vehicle. Because of the weakness already identified in the buckle housing, I feel this is not out of the realm of possibilities for this buckle. Volkswagen marked the vehicle as having recall work completed on this vehicle, however it has not been completed.

Jul 2021 ELECTRICAL SYSTEM,AIR BAGS,UNKNOWN OR OTHER My 2018 VW Atlas came from the factory with the A/C condensation drain tube twisted. This is a known issue with almost 9700 2018 VW atlas vehicles. A safety recall was issued to replace the drain hose and the air bag module. Somehow my car was missed and the dealer and Volkswagen does not want to acknowledge the issue and replace the air bag module. The manufacture recall number is 87F9 the NHTSA recall number is 18V-537. The recall states that if the drain tube is twisted it and the module are to be replaced. I am trying to find out why my atlas was not listed in the recall. It appears to be in the VIN range listed on the recall.

Jun 2021 SEATS I feel as if the 2nd row lever system is a malfunction. It does not provide safety for the 2nd row of passengers to not be crushed or be smashed into the back of the front row seats if the lever is pulled while the vehicle is in motion. This is our only vehicle and our family vehicle. It can happily be available upon request. The safety of any child passenger is at risk if they are in the 2nd row and the lever to fold the seats down or back to gain access to the 3rd row is accidentally pulled while the vehicle is in motion. The problem has not been confirmed or reproduced at a service center. It can easily be reproduced but for the safety of my small children, without kids in the 2nd row. This is an internal (inside the vehicle) safety failure or malfunction. It has not been inspected by any official at this time. There isn't anything that locks the seat rail in place while the vehicle is in motion. This is an internal vehicle issue that does not give any warning lamps, messages or other symptoms to warn of the lever being pulled or activated. It has recently come to my attention that our VW Atlas is lacking in any safety feature that prevents the 2nd row from coming unlatched from the rails, when the row lever is released. This does cause a significant safety issue as most children don't know that they cannot and should not reach or use this lever while the vehicle is in motion, thus causing significant, if not life threatening injury to the children riding in the 2nd row. I myself have 2 children under 2. I know as they get older or as we watch their cousins more often, we will be utilizing the 3rd row more. I do not want to have to worry that my nieces or nephews have pulled the lever causing the seat to catapult my children's necks into the backs of the front row seats. I want to stress how important it is to fix it. My daughter is due to be front-facing in the next couple of months in her car seat.

Apr 2021 LANE DEPARTURE MY 2018 ATLAS LANE ASSIST PULLS THE VEHICLE INTO ANOTHER LANE WITHOUT WARNING OR INTENTION FORCING ME TO KEEP A FIRM GRIP ON THE VEHICLE AT ALL TIMES. THIS USUALLY HAPPEN ON A BUSY HIGHWAY BUT IT ALSO HAPPENS ON SECONDARY ROADS AS WELL. IT IS SCARY FOR ME AS WELL AS ANY OTHER PASSENGERS IN THE VEHICLE. I HAVE COMPLAINED TO VWOFA AA WELL AS THE LOCAL DEALER WHERE I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE. THEY CANNOT FIND ANYTHING WRONG. IT IS SOMETHING THAT HAPPENS RANDOMLY. THEY DID A SHORT TEST DRIVE AND FOUND NOTHING BUT IT KEEPS HAPPENING. FOR THAT REASON I RARELY USE THE VEHICLE. IT IS A SAFETY HAZARD.

Apr 2021 ELECTRICAL SYSTEM,UNKNOWN OR OTHER,ENGINE VEHICLE GOES INTO EMERGENCY MODE FOR 4TH TIME. HAPPENED TWICE IN 2 DAYS. A TOTAL OF 4 TIMES IN 5 MONTHS. WITH NO WARNING, MULTIPLE WARNING LIGHTS COME ON AND THE CAR APPLIES EMERGENCY BRAKING UNTIL THE CAR IS BROUGHT TO A STOP. THERE IS NO OPPORTUNITY TO CHOOSE A SAFE PLACE TO BRING IT TO A STOP. DRIVER IS UNABLE TO ACCELERATE UNTIL CAR IS PARKED AND RESTARTED. THE 4TH TIME THIS HAPPENED, WAS ON AN INTERSTATE TRAVELING AT 75 TO 80MPH WITH VEHICLES AROUND TRAVELING AT SAME SPEEDS OR IN EXCESS OF THAT SPEED. LUCKILY THERE WAS AN OPENING ON THE SHOULDER THAT I WAS ABLE TO QUICKLY PULL THE CAR INTO AND THE CAR BEHIND ME DIDN'T REAR END ME. THIS IS THE 4TH TIME IT'S HAPPENED AND COULD HAVE CAUSED BODILY HARM. VW DOES NOT CARE. A SOFTWARE UPDATE WAS PERFORMED IN FEBRUARY THAT WAS SUPPOSED TO FIX THE PROBLEM. BECAUSE IT DIDN'T, VW WANTED TO REPLACE MY ENTIRE ECM BECAUSE THEY THOUGHT IT WAS FAULTY. AFTER THREAT OF BUYBACK DID THEY FINALLY START DIGGING INTO THE CAR. TECHS FOUND A FAULTY RELAY SWITCH. THEY REPLACED IT AND SAID PROBLEM COULDN'T BE RECREATED SO IT WAS FIXED 'AS FAR AS ANYONE COULD TELL' AND DIDN'T NEED A NEW ECM.

Apr 2021 ELECTRICAL SYSTEM,UNKNOWN OR OTHER,FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE THIS HAS HAPPENED 3 TIMES NOW. WHEN DRIVING, ALL EMERGENCY NOTIFICATION LIGHTS COME ON WITHOUT WARNING AND THE CAR APPLIES EMERGENCY BRAKING. THE DRIVER IS UNABLE TO ACCELERATE AND MUST COME TO A STOP IMMEDIATELY OR THE CAR DOES IT FOR THEM. THE ONLY WAY TO THEN DRIVE AGAIN, IS TO PARK IT, TURN THE CAR OFF, AND TURN IT BACK ON. WHEN THAT IS DONE, ALMOST ALL WARNING LIGHTS DISAPPEAR AND THE CAR BEHAVES AS THOUGH NOTHING EVER HAPPENED. THE ONLY ERROR THAT THE VEHICLE SHOWS IS AN ERROR WITH THE START/STOP SYSTEM AND SAYS THAT THE ENGINE IS ON DUE TO SYSTEM FAILURE. IF YOU MANUALLY TURN OFF START/STOP, THEN ALL WARNINGS ARE GONE. USUALLY, WHEN THE CAR IS TURNED OFF AND DRIVEN A SECOND TIME AFTER THAT, NO WARNINGS (NOT EVEN START/STOP) APPEAR. THIS HAS HAPPENED AT 65MPH ON CRUISE CONTROL, AT 10MPH IN A PARKING LOT, AND AT 50MPH. THE FIRST TIME IT HAPPENED, A STORED CODE FOR MULTIPLE PASSIVE MINI FAULTS APPEARED, BUT DEALER COULD NOT RECREATE PROBLEM AND I WAS TOLD TO DRIVE IT AND CALL IF IT HAPPENS AGAIN. 3 MONTHS LATER, IT HAPPENED AGAIN WITH COMPLETELY DIFFERENT VARIABLES IN DRIVING PRIOR TO IT HAPPENING. WHEN BROUGHT IN TO THE DEALER, THE SAME CODE WAS THROWN IN ADDITION TO A CODE ABOUT LOW BATTERY OUTPUT. VW WARRANTY ENGINEERS DETERMINED IT NEEDED A SOFTWARE UPDATE. AFTER SOFTWARE UPDATE WAS PERFORMED, THE NEW CODE OF THE BATTERY OUTPUT LEVEL WENT AWAY. 2 MONTHS LATER, THE SAME THING HAPPENED AGAIN AT A DIFFERENT RATE OF SPEED. NO CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WAS EVER ON, NOR IS IT PRESENTLY ON. THERE IS NO WARNING THAT THIS IS GOING TO HAPPEN. THE DRIVER HAS NO CHOICE BUT TO STOP THE CAR IMMEDIATELY IN ITS TRACKS AND TURN IT OFF. THE DRIVER IS UNABLE TO DETERMINE A SAFE PLACE TO PULL THE CAR OVER TO UNTIL THEY HAVE TURNED IT OFF AND BACK ON AND VIRTUALLY ALL WARNING LIGHTS HAVE DISAPPEARED.

Mar 2021 ENGINE 3 WEEKS AFTER WE BOUGHT A PRE-OWNED ATLAS FROM A VW DEALER, THE BATTERY DIED WITHOUT ANY WARNING. WE CHECKED-WE DID NOT LEAVE ANYTHING ON IN THE CAR. WE TRIED TO JUMP START IT FOR AN HOUR WITH NO LUCK, SO I GOOGLED IT. THE ATLAS HAS HAD MANY ISSUES WITH ITS BATTERY AND MANY PEOPLE HAVE BEEN STRANDED BECAUSE OF THIS. THE BATTERY THEY PUT IN THE VEHICLE IS NOT POWERFUL FOR THIS SUV, ESPECIALLY WITH THE AUTO-START/STOP FEATURE, WHICH PERMANENTLY DRAINS THE CELLS OF THE BATTERY SO IT CAN'T BE JUMPED. THE ONLY SOLUTION IS TO REPLACE THE ENTIRE BATTERY WITH A NEW, BETTER ONE. WE CALLED VW CORP BUT THEY WOULD NOT DO A THING! ISSUE IS, VW KNOWS ABOUT THIS ISSUE AND HAS 'ACKNOWLEDGED' IT BY EXTENDING THE INITIAL BATTERY WARRANTY TO 3 YEARS FROM WHEN IT WAS FIRST INSTALLED. SO YOU HAVE TO BE LUCKY ENOUGH TO HAVE THE BATTERY DIE WITHIN THE FIRST 3 YEARS OF OWNING THE CAR OR ELSE YOU ARE LEFT TO PAY FOR SOMETHING THAT IS DEFECTIVE AND THEY KNOW ABOUT.WE WERE 3 MONTHS OUTSIDE OF THEIR EXTENDED WARRANTY, BUT ONLY HAD THE CAR 3 WEEKS! THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE: YOUR BATTERY COULD SUDDENLY DIE WHEN YOU'RE AT THE LIGHT OF A BUSY INTERSECTION, IN THE DARK, YOUR KIDS IN THE CAR, ETC. AND YOU CAN'T EVEN TURN YOUR HAZARD LIGHTS ON TO WARN OTHER CARS THAT YOUR CAR IS DEAD. OR YOU COULD GET STRANDED IN THE MOUNTAINS WITH NO CELL RECEPTION, OR OUT IN THE MIDDLE OF NOWHERE IN A STORM OR BLIZZARD. WHAT'S WORSE IS VW USES THE AUTO-START/STOP AS A SELLING FEATURE AND THEY DO NOT WARN YOU OR DISCLOSE THIS BATTERY ISSUE EVEN THOUGH THEY KNOW ABOUT IT! THEY SHOULD HONESTLY RECALL ALL ORIGINAL ATLAS BATTERIES AND PAY TO HAVE THEM REPLACED WITH BETTER ONES THAT CAN HOLD UP TO THE SUV AND THE AUTO-START/STOP FEATURE, WHICH YOU CAN'T TURN OFF PERMANENTLY, BY THE WAY. YOU'D HAVE TO TURN IT OFF MANUALLY EVERY SINGLE TIME YOU DRIVE IT. IT IS UNACCEPTABLE THAT THEY KNOW ABOUT THIS AND DO NOTHING.
