Volkswagen Atlas

"Leak in sunroof"

"Weather stripping was a problem that was annoying at highway speeds."

"Discovered water leaking in the interior around the hatch when parked pointing 'downhill" for the first time in the rain. Had owned the SUV for a little over a month. The interior sidewalls were soaked and it looked like the hatch seal was leaking. Took it to the local VW dealer who tried to claim problem looked like it had been repaired before and wasn't covered under warranty. They did some type of repair to the hatch gasket that seemed to work ......until it rained again. This time they removed headliner and sprayed water on the top. Found leak at antenna. Repaire. Replaced headliner, no problems since. There were a lot of comments about leaks around doors in on-line groups."

"Noise in heat/air cond. system. Dash removed to correct problem. Worked fine for a while, noise has returned. System makes a pulsating sound at low speeds. Some rattles. Believe may be in the baffling system as 2007 Passat has a similar problem."

"The front-end noise was a result of the struts in the suspension system. It has been corrected. I believe this was a product defect during the manufacturing process. I understand this has been corrected in later models."

"The noise was a rattle on the front passenger side. The dealer resolved the issue by replacing the sway bar."

"Replaced actuator in passenger window."

"A low-pitch squeak audible whenever the vehicle was being driven at lower speeds and without climate control or audio turned on. Heard with every single tiny bump in the road, or when car would come to a stop. Turned out to be a part on the front driver's side that had dried out, according to the dealership. It was replaced and the problem solved."

"The car was recalled for knocking noise at front end."

"I had a rattle behind the dash. First dealer could not locate problem. Second dealer found loose wires that needed to be tied up."

"About one year into ownership I noticed when my vehicle was first driven I heard a creaking noise from the front suspension as the body shifted. It would subside when the car warmed up. The problem worsened over the past two years in volume and duration. Multiple repair attempts have been made at different dealerships and all have not been able to fix the problem. My vehicle has been at the dealership for 40 days at this point for the 7th attempt to repair the vehicle. Totally unacceptable after spending over $50K. Also, knowing there was a recall on Rear Coil Springs which could cause loss of control, and knowing my front spring was malformed and replaced in the location I have the noise is very concerning."

"Overhead console rattles near windshield"

"Wind noise at highway speed was annoying. Dealer could not resolve the problem."

"minor wind noise on the front door leading edgef"

"Occasional wind noise ( whistling type noise) from side mirrors at higher speeds"

"We kept getting an engine warning and it was a failed catalytic converter. Dealer paid for it as car was under warranty."

"Took vehicle to the mountains parked in a hill facing down over night with over a 1/4 tank of fuel and did not start the following morning. The Volkswagen dealer did an excellent job diagnosis the problem."

"Check engine light kept coming on repeatedly. We were told it was a sensor issue and they also replaced a larger component as well. Would not allow the remote start to operate during the winter."

"EVAP P0456 problem: faulty sensor caused engine light to stay on"

"The remote range is very short. You can remote start to the curb, but if you want to cool off or warm up the car and it's more than 10 yards away, it probably won't work."

"Check engine light came for no reason on again and again. After 3rd visit, fully solved, no more issues ever.. or before..."

"Needed software update, inconvenient but nothing serious though."

"The passenger's seat sensor sometimes believes that someone is sitting there, when they are not. This causes the seat belt warning and air bag warning to go off nonstop which can be annoying, to say the least."
