Current problems cited include: Doors malfunctioning; vehicle difficult to start and power off; steering and braking warnings; complete loss of power steering; compromised performance in significant lag between accelerator depression and vehicle response; electrical malfunction alerts (17); numerous dashboard warnings; distressing repetitive whining sound (not mechanical); persistent underperformance regarding vehicle range.   On March 10, vehicle was towed to commence inspection at Bay Ridge Volkswagen Service & Parts \u2013 [XXX] .   Further evidence of vehicle issues provided as accompaniment to VW Customer Care Claim via: [XXX]   This current March 2026 concern follows on multiple service visits and loss of vehicle usage during April\u2013August 2025 claims process.  During this time, Brooklyn Volkswagen Service (now permanently closed) conducted an evaluation of the car, including documented video evidence of issues with the car \u2013 even beyond those which were the original cause for my concerns (e.g. they cited degradation of cables and wiring within the car\u2019s hood due to their being made of edible soy wrappings). Link provided: [XXX] . Vehicle was ultimately released back to me with unresolved repairs (citing backorder of parts amongst other concerns that VW would not consent to resolving related to compromised bumper electronics) and interim repair offered to resolve compromise to vehicle airbag systems.   The primary use of this vehicle is in transportation of my children. It is patently unsafe to drive.  Given that the vehicle is subject to a federal safety recall without an available remedy  I have requested a prompt determination of the vehicle repurchase / lease buy\u2011back and compensation for loss of use and incurred costs to support alternative transportation requirements until resolution under this claim.
