2023 Volkswagen Golf GTI recalls

Acquired this vehicle at 6,800 miles. At about 10k miles the clutch went out and had to be replaced. This should have been the stock clutch system. I was able to examine the old clutch kit. It was determined that the disk was damaged due to overheating, the throw out bearing had cracked in pieces, and the fly wheel had signs of overheating as well. I then replaced it with an aftermarket kit from ECS Tuning. The whole kit was replaced and a OEM throw out bearing was replaced.

Hill hold assist takes exactly three seconds to release automatically.

This is particularly dangerous in a left hand turn situation with multiple cars where a stall or hesitation for th

The issue is the feature does not disengage the parking brake for about 3 seconds after you engage the gas to begin moving the car. It basically holds the car for too long when you are trying to get moving. This feature has become more of a hinderance and safety concern, than an assistance: 1) Almost rear ended by another car as the Hill Hold Assist would not disengage at a traffic light 2) The amount of gas and clutch use while the car is being held in place while engaged negatively impacts the
