Used 2022 Volkswagen Atlas Cross Sport Consumer Reviews
Love this car
I got the top of the line model and I love it. The driving experience is luxurious and similar to Audi (which I normally buy/lease). The design of the car is very thoughtful and while the car is big, it drives small and relatively quick, note I do own the 3.6 V6 and didn’t test drive the smaller engine. The other car in the house is an Audi Q5 and I always choose to drive the VW Atlas cross sport. I would agree with the other reviews that the fuel consumption is relatively inefficient but I don’t drive much so it mattered less to me. I would truly recommend anyone to take this beauty for a spin.

love the design, hate the problems!
I purchased my 2021 ATLAS Cross Sport V6 in Sept 2021. So far the car has cut off while waiting in line at a red light and the eco was off ! Took it to dealership 2 times , they couldnt find anything wrong. They asked me did I have my door open . I said no. They said I forgot to turn off the eco , but I didnt, and I told them even if I did, the car would not just completely turn off and show a message on the console that I needed to manually restart. Their answer for this issue was to video it happening! That's safe, play with camera while driving.! Then I reported that the crash alert would randomly turn on for no reason,, they said that the sensors were very sensitive and red lights could be causing this. Next , I entered my car at night and the auto lights was turned on like it had been since I bought it , but when I started the car, my dash was completely black , and the only thing that lit up was the red indicators lines for the fuel, temp etc.. I finally had to turn the lights from auto to on, and everything lit up. The next day , I turned my lights back to auto and that night everything worked fine. My emergency brake will randomly turn on as well. Brakes sound like they are grinding sometimes, and when I accelerate from a stop light, stop sign etc.. the car will act like it doesnt want to switch gears, it sort of lurches. I decided to write this review because today, I did forget to turn my eco off and when I approached a red light , the car never stopped running like its supposed to . I did go ahead and start my phones video to catch it doing this. And to top it off, winter is coming soon and the dealer said my floor mats are still on back order! I love the way this car looks but I hate that I cant enjoy driving it!

This vehicle has it where it counts
First this is the Off Road mode is great and augments the other adjustable AWD drive modes. The acceleration is just as good as most of its competitor's with one exception...It uses REGULARE GAS to achieve Real world MPG ! The exterior is very sporty even though the VW group has 3 other versions like the Q8, the Porsche and the Uris Lamborghini. Same shape but less luxurious and a lot less money. I have the SE Tec with the 6 cylinder and 4 motion. This is not a small vehicle, it's the same size as 2021 MDX and just about a second slower with 5000lbs towing capacity. Pretty good for a vehicle that runs on REGULAR GAS!

Stay Away
This car has caused me nothing but issues. I’ve had the car for 1 month and a half. It’s been in the shop for nearly 4 weeks. I’ve had nothing but major issues. Car stalling out, push to start not working, car automatically being put into neutral while sitting at a light and car hard shifting when I get off the gas. Seems like that was a transmission. They’ve ordered parts etc. I WILL NEVER BUY VOLKSWAGEN AGAIN.

DO NOT BUY!!!!!!
Although this vehicle is sharp in looks it sucks! Parking brake, lane assist, and park assist came on. Alert that my car is running came on - of course it's on as I'm driving. Windows rolled down by themselves. Doors would unlock except for the drivers side which meant I had to climb in from passenger side. Doors would not lock/unlock at times from the touch sensor. Collision alert came on with no need as nothing was in front of me. As stated before of windows coming down by themselves they then wouldn't even go down when I needed to. Radio would not turn up. We unfortunately bought this and it will be the LAST VW we will buy.
