Whenever the passenger/driver seats are moved within 10 seconds of starting the car airbag light comes on in the console and does not turn off until done so manually by a mechanic. The "pod" device is then disabled. If light is on, then airbag might not deploy in an accident, injuries or death may occur. On 2 separate occasions, one in august and one in october the light was reset by a mechanic and took 3 days each time. I have been advised to have the computer in the car reprogrammed, but the dealership's mechanics have not done so, assuming that is why the light keeps appearing.*ak

Purchased my third volkswagen new beetle - recognize that my second one, a 2003 was a lemon 5 right rear tail lights replaced and 2 headlights. Also had to have the intermittent wiper relay replaced - see odi #10074539.*ak dealer traded me for a 2004, on 4/6/04 and not even 2 weeks into my purchase, the drivers side window would not operate properly. Thought i was imagining things, especially after my last experience. I put the window down (electronically) and then put it up and it comes down by itself certainly another safety fault of this car. It happened 2 more times before i called the dealer they told me oh, we knew about that bring it in and get it fixed. Oh, here we go again! I buy a new car about every 3-4 years, as i drive a lot and want a very dependable car, with no repairs needed. I will never feel safe in a vw new beetle again. No matter if i never have another problem&& incidient date noted is when the dealer took my car to fix it...............

Driver door power window:new beetle conv. When closing,will roll back down by itself and clunks when hits bottom. Happens almost every time window is opened then closed. Reported and taken to dealer april 20 2004, they found window glass almost falling off clip. Reinstalled. Released back to me. Before i left the service area, window failure happened again. Dealer then replaced motor 2 times. Still same problem. Dealer contacted vw. And was told software update needed and shorter cables.

The 2004 volkswagen beetle has a safety belt warning system that triggers a series of warning beeps every thrity seconds if the safety belt is not fastened. This presents a serious distraction while driving and clearly poses a safety hazard. Aside from the obvious case of someone choosing to break the law by choosing not to wear a seat belt, the problem also presents itself to those who don't use a safety belt for medical reasons, those who live in or travel to a state that does not reuire use, or most importantly anyone who places a package weighing more than 25 +/- lbs on the front passenger seat (which is quite common because of the limited truck space in the convertible). The warning beeps are loud and clearly disracting while driving.

While driving srs light appeared on the dashboard and remained on. The consumer was able to maintain control of the vehicle, and drove it to the dealer for inspection. The mechanic determined that the air bag sensor needed to be reset, and reset it six times. However, the problem recurred. *ak the seat latch was broken and the rear console was falling apart. *sc
