Great Car, sound system sucks

I love driving Atlas. But the factory sound system is horrible, thousands of users reporting of this bad sound system on multiple forums. But VW doesn't care. I thought of switching to SEL Premium with premium fender system. But that premium system is no exception, equally horrible.

2023 VW Atlas SEL Premium R-Line

2023 Volkswagen Atlas SEL Premium R-Line 4dr SUV AWD (3.6L 6cyl 8A)

Got a Pyrite Silver one. Outstanding in looks, comfort, and features. Bought this for wife's retirement. Its a luxurious SUV; beautiful at all angles. Very quiet. Exterior lighting is impressive; including courtesy lighting on door and hatch. We have less than 1000 miles at this point; this car far exceeds our demands. We considered Cadillac, Honda, and Kia - which have great options in the 3 row, v6, suv category - the roominess and aesthetics won us.

Safety issues with brakes and navigation

SS, 08/23/2024

This is the worst car I have ever owned and I've owned some rough cars. I finally bought a new car that is riddled with issues VW doesn't fix or care to fix. The dealership I worked with is terrible and they don't care. The brakes started to grind within a few thousand miles and apple car play navigation has never worked. They keeps saying brakes are fine even though the grinding continues to get louder. The navigation always thinks I am miles away from where I actually am. I can't disconnect and use my phone and am constantly lost and fighting it. These issues are severe safety issues. I PAID for navigation that I can't use and brakes that sound like I am driving a $2,000 garbage car not a $40,000 car. Super disappointed in VW and will NEVER buy another VW and no one in our family will every own one and we have several kids driving or about ready to drive.
