There are 3 owner-reported visibility & wipers complaints for the 2024 Volkswagen Taosin NHTSA's database. These are unverified consumer reports and may not reflect confirmed defects.
The contact owns a 2024 Volkswagen Taos. The contact stated that while driving approximately 50 - 60 MPH, the rear driver's side window exploded, causing pieces of glass to land on the contact's child, seated inside the vehicle. There were no injuries sustained. The contact used a blanket to cover the window and prevent more glass from entering the cabin of the vehicle. The vehicle was not taken to the dealer. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer had not made the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 23,000.
The windshield wipers regularly come on automatically when it is not raining, sometimes at a very rapid speed. I have unselected in the settings the option for them to come on automatically but the problem still persists. When the windshield is dry the wipers make a very loud dragging noise and since this comes at random unexpected times it is quite startling as well as an annoyance. I have taken the vehicle in to have the censor assessed that is incorrectly detecting the rain and told that everything appeared correctly but that it was a known issue for this make and model vehicle.
