2019 Volkswagen Tiguan consumer reviews

Finding out the warranty is a real 6 year 72,000 bumper to bumper. What is soft warranty. Only reason I bought to try German engineering and now finding out they lure you in and not cover. Sounds like the emissions issue all over. Should have stayed with Toyota.

Love the electronic package and panoramic sunroof. The tiptronic transmission is very responsive even on auto setting. A great size SUV for short commutes or longer trips. Overall, a great value for the money.

The car meets all the needs for my family of four. It has a great warranty and the gas mileage is an added bonus. Very slick interior design also!

I absolutley love my R-Line Tiguan. It has two toned interior and every bell and whistle possible. Also, the Volkswagen company takes care of their drivers. The 3rd row is a bit tight which is why I gave it 4 stars on comfort, but other than that it is perfect. I have two kids in multiple sports. Everything has a place to go with ease. On the road its like driving a sports car. Smooth and agile. The car is very intuitive and it is functional and user friendly. I drove a passat for 3 years and never thought I would want anything else, until the Tiguan. I LOVE IT.

We moved from a 2017 Passat SE with Technology with the purchase of the Tiguan SE. While the vehicles are quite different we are very happy after the past few days owning this car.

I wanted a reasonably priced SUV that offered good space, and a German feel. This SUV delivers good handling, and a well laid out interior. It doesn’t feel cheap either. I would like more pick up, but it has a sport mode which can give u what you need when you need it. The fuel economy is less than desirable too. I’ve had a few minor issues, but no more than I’ve had on a Toyota as well.

2019 VW Tiguan Confortline with 3rd row Good: the interior is very quiet. Good mileage. Spacious. Interior lights work well. Smooth on the road. Great for winter slippery driving conditions. You can squeeze an adult in the 3rd row for a short drive. Bad: engages E brake when you make a quick stop to get the mail. Engine turns off when you're in your turn around trying to maneuver to park. Engine turn off button is in a terrible spot, driver cannot see it. Eco and Normal driving modes are stupid for a car so big and heavy. If you change the drive mode to say, Snow Drive then change back to your custom mode, it actually doesn't go back to the custom mode; the best thing to do is to turn off then turn on vehicle when you're stopped. Front sensor can be activated by sting wind or blowing sand.

Beautiful gray R line, black wheels are wow! Feel very spoiled driving this vehicle! Traded up from a Jetta to this sharp looking Tiguan! Great trade!

Driving a 2019 Tiguan SEL Premium for about 5,000 miles (6 months). Impressed with features such as adaptive headlights, digital cockpit, various assist systems, adaptive cruise control, remote start, heated steering, navigation on a great screen, fantastic audio, and many more. German luxury brands offer little if anything more than this VW, although, they do have more powerful engines. And they cost at least 15K more than the Tiguan SEL Premium (I paid about 34 K USD before tax). Don't care much about the unpractical 19 inch wheels on the SEL Premium, or the lane assist which attempted to steer me off the road one time. The front assist/emergency braking kicked in already twice when I was slowish to hit the brakes, that was helpful even though I would have stopped in time. This car (at this trim level) has so many features that it takes some time to figure them all out. There are many youtube videos that explain the how to use various systems. Overall: feels like a luxury vehicle at cruising speeds, but not so during acceleration. Given the extended warranty and price the high trim level is a great deal and I enjoy the modern features. When I researched this car I found reviews that referred to issues with the transmission when starting out fast from 0, and also some issues with rattling of the B-pillar, if I remember correctly. My car has non of these issues, I bought it in 2019 and I guess those issues were already addressed by VW.

This car has a terrible turbo lag/ throttle lag. Creates a serious safety issue in performance when you are trying to maneuver around traffic or in traffic VW says there is no fix for this condition. They will probably wait till there’s a serious injury and then correct the problem.
