It has been 3 months since the issue below was reported (per nhtsa) and no repair is available. I called and asked what i can do in the meantime to ensure safety of me and my 6 year old and was not provided with any information. Feb 14,2024 manufacturer recall number20uf nhtsa recall number24v110 recall statusrecall incomplete, remedy not yet available summary the suction jet pump inside the fuel tank is designed to purge fuel from the evaporative emissions (evap) system. If a specific seal inside an affected suction jet pump fails, the fuel may flow directly into the evap system. If this happens, fuel could accumulate in the evap system and may leak through the charcoal canister filter element. Leaking fuel, in the presence of an ignition source, may result in a fire.

Despite settling a class action lawsuit re: moonroof leakage, vw refuses to cover the same repair for my vw golf sportwagen. I have the same issue but could not participate in the class action suit due to mileage. I routinely have to bail 1/2 - 1 gallon of water out the spare tire area if its been raining. Water now also collects in the footwell behind the driver's seat/in front of my child's seat. The bolts affixing the seatbelts to the floor are rusted and there is mold under the carpet. The car now has electrical issues, including the alarm no longer sounding when i am reversing and someone is approaching in my blind spot. In addition, when the weather has been wet, the back up camera does not work and, mid trip, the car alarms sound, indicating the car must be serviced and the brakes and airbags are not working. These problems disappear after a few days of dry weather.

There was a recall on my vehicle due to a spring issue. Presumably i have the same springs as those on cars that were recalled, even though my car was not recalled. My springs are damaged, but vw refuses to take responsibility.
