2024 Volkswagen ID.4 Complaints

Several issues with the ID.4's Navigation module including 1. Dynamic Signage not Available warning signs and posting an incorrect speed limit on the dashboard. 2. Incorrect GPS Location, showing locations that are significantly off from the actual location and therefore providing incorrect directions to charging locations and other destinations. 3. The SOS Feature is inactive due to the vehicle's inability to determine its location. The vehicle has been with the dealer several times over the past 3 months and has been unable to be fixed. Furthermore, due to the above issues, several features of the vehicle are unusable including android auto.

GPS/navigation cannot determine position. ACC/driver-assist features are sometimes disabled, but then reactivate with no warning. Car will automatically brake for no reason on interstate since navigation suddenly indicates it has has entered, say, a 30 mph zone 100 miles to the east. Automatic distance keeping from vehicle in front turns off/on at random. VW dealer and Corporate are aware of the problem but state there is no known fix.

The contact owns a 2024 Volkswagen ID.4. The contact stated upon pulling to a parking space and depressing the brake pedal, the brake Auto Brake Hold system engaged; however, the vehicle accelerated unintendedly, and the front end of the vehicle crashed into the side of one unoccupied parked vehicle, and then crashed into the front of a second unoccupied parked vehicle, which hit the front of a third unoccupied parked vehicle. The brake pedal was depressed during the failure, but the vehicle failed to respond. The air bags did not deploy. No injury was sustained. A police report was filed, but the information was not available. The vehicle was towed to Triple A storage facility. The vehicle was then towed to an autobody repair shop, where an estimate of the damage sustained was provided. The vehicle was not repaired. The dealer was notified of the failure, and the contact requested an investigation of the failure. The vehicle was in the process of being towed to the dealer auto collisi...

I was driving my 2024 ID.4 S when an error popped up stating that I needed to “clean front parking sensors” and “maneuver braking is unavailable.” At my earliest convenience I attempted to clean the sensors but the issue persisted. Upon consult with the dealership I was informed that the sensors have a tiny rock knick and my front sensors need replacing. This was a $1700 repair. The vehicle is only a year old and has been driven very carefully. My concern is that. Volkswagen Auto Group uses cheap sensors print to failure and as a result my emergency maneuver braking feature is at risk of not working.

The car's position as shown on the navigation screen and as determined by the car's internal GPS was off by several hundred miles. While driving on the highway using adaptive cruise control, the car would frequently decelerate rapidly from 60+ mph to 30 or less. When it did this, it would display a message like "turn ahead - maximum 24 mph". Of course, there was no tight turn ahead as I was on an interstate highway in New York - the ACC was receiving messages to slow down because the location data was inaccurate. On two occasions this nearly caused a rear-end collision before I was able to disable the feature in ACC that would cause the car to decelerate because of small radius roadway curvature. During this time, the car's navigation system would continuously try to re-route, and the SOS functionality did not work.
