While driving a 2026 Volkswagen Tiguan in Los Angeles County, CA, the vehicle spontaneously and without driver input shifted itself into Neutral. The vehicle experienced a complete loss of motive power and stopped driving. I was travelling with my newborn infant in the back seat when the vehicle lost propulsion in active traffic, creating an extreme and immediate collision hazard.

The dealership was made aware of a sensor issue that causes error codes for air bag sensors but they have not made a serious attempt to service the vehicle or make accommodation to have the car serviced and is aware of potential electrical system issue but said it’s fine. It’s just a sensor. This could have ended lives thankfully there was li
