Used 2014 Volkswagen Passat S 4dr Sedan (2.5L 5cyl 5M) Consumer Reviews

Great car

Worst vehicle I've ever had

The NAV is not user friendly. When you enter the car, the media plays whatever it wants to even if your apps aren't open. The display changes from whatever setting you've selected to show that you're making a call and to whom you're calling; so if you had it set on the speed you have to change it back after starting or ending the call. As soon as the a/c was out of warranty the compressor went out. I have had it replaced less than a week and it's gone out again. Besides the fact that my TDI has no value because of the lies the company told, the car is a piece of crap.

Manual must be better

The car is dynamical and reliable. However, maybe its software requires some correction. This is motivated by following. Usually, the car's key is turned in its full range to start the car's engine. My car works well and there is no any warning signs on its instrumental panel. However, once when I turn the key only to get 12v ( listen radio), the warning signs 1. battery; 2. engine malfunction; 2. EPC appeared. These are serious warning signals. However, when I turned the key to start the engine and it started these warning signals disappeared. A reasonable question: is the car healthy or it should be brought to a dealership to repair? The VW administration was unable to answer this question. If this a mistake in the manual , which should indicate : read warning signals when engine starts or its software should be fixed .
