What Owners Say
"Leaking moonroof"
Anonymous, PA (2019 Volkswagen Golf Alltrack SEL 1.8-L 4 Cyl turbo)Don’t be thrown off by the rugged styling cues and elevated ride height: The Volkswagen Golf Alltrack is much more of a street machine than it is a tenacious off-roader. It carves up curvy sections of blacktop with the eagerness of a regular Golf, feeling taut and nimble thanks to ideally weighted steering and nicely controlled body roll.
There’s little question, though, that VW’s intention is for the Alltrack to take on Subaru’s Outback, but with a younger-at-heart, more fun-to-drive bent. After all, both share the same concept of a tough-looking, all-wheel-drive station wagon standing as an alternative to the herd of small SUVs stampeding the market. While the Alltrack brings a premium vibe to this niche, it’s definitely sized for smaller families, and it doesn’t offer the price-to-size ratio of some rivals. Nonetheless, the Alltrack is a compelling package for those who value driving with verve over cubic footage.

"this auto has the worst seats of any car I have owned, I cannot adjust to make it straight up and my back always hurts after driving greater than 1 hour, I have to put a cushion in the seat and had to turn the head rest backward because it was pushing my head forward. When I back up, I cannot see clearly. I am an average size person 5'7'. Bad design AND had I realized this during the test drive, I never would have purchased this auto,"
Anonymous, AZ (2019 Volkswagen Golf Alltrack SEL 1.8-L 4 Cyl turbo)"This car was delivered to me brand new with a leaking panoramic sunroof. The car has been in the shop for many months having the sunroof replaced, new headliner, body welds fixed. They cannot make it stop leaking! The ironic part is they gave me a 2019 Alltrack SE loaner car with a panoramic sunroof that also was leaking and staining the headliner at only 2500 miles. I plan to lemon law this car, it's not repairable, very widespread problem on this vehicle."
