Broken clock spring air bags not working with light illuminated

Feb 2018 vw replaced the airbags and clock spring. approximately one year later, the airbag lights came on together with the abs and tire pressure lights. i have no power to the steering wheel, no horn etc. my steering is getting tighter and tighter to turn. i'm sure this poses some sort of a safety risk especially when this is the only vehicle i have. i wish vw would correctly identify the problem and issue a nationwide remedy to cure this defect. the sooner the better since vw has known about this since 2011. all of this happened overnight while my car was parked. i got into it to go to work and this is what happened. please help your consumers to cure this defect and not put a band-aid on it.

My vehicle has been just fine up until saturday morning,12/1/2018 at approximately 10:30. as i was making a right turn i heard clicking coming from my steering wheel. mind you i would here this clicking hear and there but figured maybe my steering column was getting rusty not know it was more serious until now. after i parked my car i received and air bag error. my car was apart of the takata airbag inflator recall and i got that fixed at the dealer april 2017. when i called the vw dealer near my residence, the service advisor ask i bring my car in to diagnose however from the sounds of it, appears to be a spiral clock spring issue. of course being a female i had concerns and ask several questions goong back to the airbag replacement to see if it all tied in together. the advisor advised since the recall was a year and half ago this is a different issue but again would diagnose the vehicle first. here's my issue. as i reached more, i noticed a lot of complaints and investigations related to the clock spring failure. there were recalls but my vehicle was not included. ...

Vehicle was serviced september 2015 for recall regarding defective clock spring/ poor clock spring design. it appears that the vehicle had a clock spring cover installed to prevent damage. it appears the clock spring is now faulty. vw dealership confirmed other vehicles that had said services done noticed the clock spring maintenance performed improperly, leading to further damage. defective clock spring was confirmed by the dealership. it has been a week and vw keeps dragging their feet on giving us information on what they're going to do. we have been severely inconvenienced due to the fact we are down to one car. if we choose to fix the vehicle now, vw will refuse to reimburse us. we have to leave the vehicle at the dealer and wait for them to decide what to do before we can do anything.

I received a safety recal 69l2 stating that the steering wheel clock spring in my 2012 volkswagen passat could fail. the clock spring did fail and was repaired in 2015 under the safety recall. on oct 5th 2018 the steering wheel clock spring failed again and volkswagen refused to repair it under the 2015 recall. with a broken clock spring the driver air bag is disabled. the horn is disabled and all controls on the steering wheel are disabled. the steering wheel clock spring broke as i was making a normal right hand turn into my driveway.

I received a recall notice on my car 14 months ago, and immediately got it fixed. the recall was for my steering wheel clock spring- this affects my horn, airbags, and hands free phone option. i got it fixed in july 2017. 14 months later (today) it broke again. this is an obvious fault on volkswagen's part. because its after 12 months, they will not honor the broken part and fix it. i would have to pay out of pocket for the part that cost $300.00. this a safety issue, and i am afraid my airbags will not work, let alone my horn absolutely does not work. volkswagen should honor this issue, and make an exception, since it is a two months difference.

Airbag clock spring failure after previous recall work was performed. encountered steering wheel resistance to cornering and heard crunching noise as airbag light came on. all steering wheel controls including horn were lost. volkswagen dealer service stated over phone that this was unrelated to previous recall and would not be covered.

Tl* the contact owns a 2012 volkswagen passat. while the vehicle was stationary, the air bag indicator illuminated without warning. volkswagen reading (2746 bernvillee rd, leesport, pennsylvania 19533, (610) 777-6500) stated that the clockspring needed to be replaced. the manufacturer was made aware of the failure and provided the contact with case number: 181-245-460. the contact stated that the vehicle was previously repaired per nhtsa campaign number: 15v483000 (air bags). the failure mileage was approximately 66,000.

Last month, september 2018, while driving my car on surface streets, i started to hear a cracking noise coming from my steering wheel whenever i turned the wheel. my airbag light also came on. as i continued to drive, i was worried that my steering would fail from all the noise i was hearing from the steering column. once i got home, i researched online what the problem might be and i also verified with the vw dealership that it was a broken clock spring coil and my airbag and all electrical components to the steering wheel failed and i was driving my car without the main safety feature which is the airbag. i went to the ventura vw dealership on september 20,2018 to have them replace the clock spring coil. they kept my car overnight and i had to pay for a rental car from them. from my understanding, vw knew that the clock spring coil could break and therefore they issued the vw recall # 15v483000 in 8/14/2015, to place a protective cover over the steering wheel clock spring. i had this recall already done to my car prior to this issue happening. therefore it seems ...
