Historical MOT pass rates and DVLA records for 2021 model year cars.
- Software / Infotainment BugsModerate
Early cars suffered from frozen screens, connectivity failures and erratic warning lights. VW has released several OTA updates but some cars need dealer intervention.
- 12V Battery Causing Cascade FaultsModerate
The 12V auxiliary battery degrades prematurely, triggering multiple seemingly unrelated high-voltage system errors. A failing 12V battery can make the car refuse to start or enter a fault state.
- Door Handle / Locking IssuesModerate
The flush-fitting capacitive touch door handles can become unresponsive or fail to unlock, particularly in cold or wet weather. Mechanical override inside the handle is often needed.
