CONSTANTLY RECEIVING MESSAGE, ' ADAPTIVE FRONT LIGHTING SYSTEM.' AFTER RESEARCH I NOTICED THAT THIS IS A RECALL ISSUE ON OTHER MODELS OF THE SAME YEAR AND I FEEL THAT THIS IS CONNECTED BEING THAT IT'S THE SAME MESSAGE RECEIVED AS THE OTHER MODELS. VEHICLE IS STATIONARY AND I RECEIVE THE MESSAGE EVERY TIME I START THE CAR. JUST PURCHASED CAR AND PICKED UP FROM DEALER SATURDAY EVENING SO I CAN ONLY STATE WHEN I FIRST NOTICED THE MESSAGE MYSELF AND NOT WHEN IT ACTUALLY FIRST APPEARED.

How to use these: a complaint is one owner’s report, filed voluntarily and published unverified. Patterns matter more than any single story. If several owners describe the same failure at similar mileage, put that system at the top of your pre-purchase inspection list. Back to the full 2016 Volkswagen Cc verdict →
