2024 Volkswagen Golf R recalls

Vehicle consistently misfires after fueling. Sometimes the pump shuts off early before filling the tank adding 5-9 gallons when I should expect 12. VW claims it is bad fuel but to get bat fuel at multiple gas stations over the course of a year is unlikely. I believe it is related to the suction jet pump that VW was forced to recall on various models but dealerships will not inspect this part. It has been in for diagnosis 7 times since the first cel was triggered in May of 2025.

The Hill Hold Assist system on my 2024 Volkswagen GTI (manual transmission) repeatedly holds the brakes too long when starting on an incline. The brakes remain engaged for 1–2 seconds even after I begin releasing the clutch and applying throttle, which causes the car to stall or hesitate before moving. This creates a safety risk when pulling into traffic or when other vehicles are behind me on a hill. This issue has occurred at least four times within the first 1,000 miles of driving. It is easily reproducible on normal hills and happens under normal driving conditions. I have many years of experience driving manual transmission vehicles, including a 2019 GTI, and I have never experienced th

I own a manual transmission MK8 Golf R, the ‘hill assist’ system cannot be turned off. The brakes will hold for 2-5 seconds after being released even on very slight inclines. I unfortunately upgraded from a 2017 MK7 Golf R manual that was damaged in an accident (I was not at fault). In that model VW the hill assist or ‘auto hold’ was able to be turned off with a button. The new models ‘assist system’ is an unsafe as is requires heavy clutch/throttle input in order for it to release. I’m [XXX] and have driven manual cars and trucks my entire driving life so I’m aware of what is required to drive a manual. This system needs to be addressed or somehow needs to have the ability to be disabled. T

The infotainment system attempts to call for information or help. It disconnects my cell phone from bluetooth or USB and causes the screen to swap to either of the above call pages and makes a loud 'click' sound. It then cancels the call and attempts them again around a second or two later and gradually speeds up until the car is entirely turned off. The screen flashing and clicking is extremely distracting and there is no way to resolve it short of entirely shutting the vehicle off and letting it sit for a few minutes. In order to full reset, I have to find an exit or risk completely turning the vehicle off and getting out on the highway. I was unable to reset it with it detecting me in my

Hill Hold Assist: This feature appears to be on most manual transmission Volkswagen vehicles, and activates on a forward facing incline. In newer models the feature completely immobilizes movement for almost 3 seconds when stopped on an incline, after breaks are released, potentially causing a safety hazard. Request this feature either be removed all together, shortened to approximately 1 second, or become disabled when accelerator is depressed.
