    Pads · Parking Brake

    Parking brake was not adjusted properly from the factory causing premature brake pad wear. Too soon to be caught during service intervals thereby may have caused brake failure leading to an incident and/or caused damage. *tr

    Rear brakes i feel their is a defect. Have replaced them once at about under 13 thousand miles and again now over 13 thousand miles the vehicle has the same issue. It is not reasonable for rear brakes to wear down before the front. Now volkswagen is giving me the run around. It has less than a year since purchase and i have to spend another 5 hundred dollars to get these fixed. I can be going through brakes like…

    I have a 2007 volkswagen jetta (wolfsburg edition). My car has 17,000 miles on it. I brought it to the dealer because the rear brakes were grinding extremely loud. Upon inspection i was told that i needed new rear pads and rotars. I have never in my life had to replace rear brakes and rotars at 17,000. I purchased this car brand new and have not even had it one year. I don't think any car should have rear brakes…

    Pads

    I noticed grinding in the rear brakes after only 20,000 miles on my 2007 vw jetta 2.0 turbo. No warning lights, no wear sensor trips, no indication of brake pad failure. I took the car in for service in monroe, michigan and i was told that vw rear brakes wear out faster than the front brakes and that it was normal, even after 20k miles. If this is the case, than why do they put the electronic wear sensors on the…
