We had work done on our 2018 Alltrack, the sunroof tubes - BrotherSteve
We had work done on our 2018 Alltrack, the sunroof tubes with kinked during the manufacturing process. We understand that this is not uncommon. We waited a very long time for the parts, not the dealer issue at all. The parts came in and the dealer replaced all of the parts including the new drain tubes, carpeting and headliner. The work looked great, done in a very professional manor. A few weeks following the completion of the work, the sunroof started leaking again so we brought it back to the dealer. They diagnosed the problem as the tubes were blocked again and that it was now our fault because we did not perform the proper maintenance to ensure that the drainage tubes did not leak. I asked what the scheduled maintenance time was and they indicated 20,000 miles. The car had approximately 400 miles on it since everything had been replaced. Maybe my math is wrong but 400 miles is a lot less than 20,000 miles. We took the car home and replicated the test that the dealer performed to determine that the drainage tubes were clogged and confirmed what they found. I inspected the 1-way valves at the end of the tubes and got covered in grease and grime as it gushed out of the tube. The tubes were filling with water and flowing into the sunroof because the system was not properly flushed when fixed in my opinion but what do I know I'm just a worthless customer.
I have reached out to the dealership, to the owner of the dealership and no reply, just crickets. I have filed a complaint with VW USA (that's what they told me to do if I had a problem). Pretty sad because this dealership did some really good repair work for us prior to this incident. A case has been opened, will see what happens but I'm not holding my breath. They owner of this dealership is the Jay Auto Group. As I noted, they have not reached out to me either.
