I bought the Taos 2022 about 7 months ago, new in the agency. On Thursday I put gasoline to it, on Friday the EPC light was on while I was parking, so I turned it off, and then on again and it disappear, today is Monday and the car out of nowhere turned off, it took me 5 minutes to turn it on again, I was on traffic, so it was not a big caos, but still very dangerous, when I turned it in again the gas indicator was red, so I stopped at a gas station with the EPC light still on, when I turned it off the light disappear and again the car stoped and it took me again about 3 minutes to start it. I just took it to the agency and they told me it could be the bad quality of the gasoline or that it was in reserve (the thing is that I didn't even use the car that much on the weekend, so why was my gasoline spent that fast? Can you imagine a car stopping in the middle of the road? I feel very insecure - Does not recommend this car

There's simply no reason to risk buying a Taos.
There's simply no reason to risk buying a Taos. My aging parents switched to a new 2023 Taos when they found they could not drive as much to save money on repairs. Big mistake... TRANSMISSION IS UNSAFE AS DESIGNED The sudden halts and lurches of the Taos' erratic transmission and brakes have proven dangerous for my 90 yr old parents. These built-in operational hazards at any speed are especially unavoidable and unforgiving at every acceleration from a full stop. First gear is inescapably geared too low, and it takes far too long to shift up into each gear, forcing lurches with slight accelerations at any speed. Smooth acceleration is simply not possible. I made every adjustment to my foot pressure and timing possible to work around the Taos' unsafe transmission til the first 10,000 mile service. Citi VW in Evanston, IL claimed to then update the transmission software. This fixed nothing. It's still unsafe to operate w/passengers in normal traffic. In typical bumper-to-bumper Chicago traffic even the most gentle acceleration at very low speeds risks sudden rear-end collisions. The service attendant did acknowledge many customers have been frustrated with the same issue to the point of having to replace the car altogether. He also recommended trying the Taos' semi-manual shifting. This of course only adds a distracting task while driving, and reveals how unjustifiably low first gear really is. [Note: Many states have enforceable Lemon Laws which require the dealer to provide a full refund or replacement after 4 repair attempts before the first 12,000 miles of a new car.] All car manufacturers figured out how to set gear ratios for smooth acceleration many decades ago. It just makes no sense that VW forgot how with the Taos. FRONT WINDOW LEVERS MALFUNCTION When you lift the window lever the windows go up—but about 30% of the time they go down instead. This same malfunction occurs when pressing the levers down. The service desk said they replaced the entire window motor. This fixed nothing. Curiously, he also said he cleaned out the window wells in the door as debris (?) there can affect the functionality. I've never heard this about any car. NAVIGATION SYSTEM - DISABLES GOOGLE MAPS Connecting via CarPlay Wi-Fi disables all iPhone Google and Apple Maps apps. This renders all of my daily route planning useless, and requires re-entering them all into the sub-standard Taos' navigation tool, which can't hold my full route list, and lacks basic G-Maps functions. ENTERTAINMENT SYSTEM - MULTIPLE PERSISTENT ISSUES - Several times each week it will produce no sound. Turning the volume knob makes the red 'volume level' line at the top grow to the right, but no sound comes from any speaker. The following malfunctions occur many times a day which do never occur when this iPhone is connected to ANY other Bluetooth device: - Taos system will suddenly play music or podcasts at very high speed...then pause...the play at high speed...then pause...etc. This requires shutting both the Taos system and iPhone off, reconnecting, and trying again, still often not leading to normal function. Pulling the car over and turning the car off can sometimes help, but not usually. - Taos system sporadically switches mid-podcast to a random song or other podcast. – Taos system will begin playing a song with none selected—when the iTunes app is not even on. - Taos system will display a different title it is playing, often from a different app. -Taos system frequently claims no device is connected when the iPhone clearly displays that it's connected via Bluetooth. The service desk said there was a just software update needed and that they updated that. Again, this fixed NOTHING. DO NOT BUY A TAOS. There are many new car options with none of these issues filling this and other car forums. Skip the months of gaslighting by VW and its dealers. - Does not recommend this car

I bought the 22 model in Apr of 22 and had it about a year and the ac compressor went out. It took them a couple of months to get one and when they did they found that it had metal shavings all in the lines so they had to replace everything in the circuit. They gave us a loaner car for two weeks and so far it’s been working fine. Have had a couple of software updates so far but no other issues. Have just turned 10,000 miles. The transmission is jerky so I basically drive it around in sport mode to keep it from dropping into the highway gear. Overall we like it - Does recommend this car

For anyone planning to buy Taos better be careful with this car. I have Taos 2022 with 14K kilometres. I have maintenance package, and I got informed today that my Rear Brake pad is only 2mm. When I asked how is it possible they told me this is the same for all Taos and VW know about this problem and hasn’t done anything. I had to pay $430 to replace the pad. I have never had this experience with any car before. Be careful with this garbage. I have the picture to share if anyone wants it. - Does not recommend this car

Everybody check your AC vents
Volkswagen has an ongoing issue with the blender actuator in the dash for your vents. They have no idea about it yet I went to all the brand new cars on the line. They still are coming out like that. 2022 Volkswagen Taos se - Purchased a New car

VW's answer to low quality design and awkwardness
I got a Taos as a second car to drive to work and back. I had owned a 1992 VW GTI when I was a student and had a positive image of the VW. My previous second car was a Subaru Crosstrek. For certain reasons I decided not to go with a Subaru last year and leased a Taos. I have been driving it for a year now and here are my observations: CONS: For a car in it's class the interior is cheaply designed with very low quality material. The dashboard makes squeaky noises when you drive on uneven roads. The Apple Car play interface with the cell phone is completely unreliable. Indicator and warning bells are way too loud in a way that I turn off the directional signal at times when I am waiting in traffic - it's just too loud. The engine light came on after two months of driving the car and I had to take it to the dealer for a software update - this seems to be everyone's issue. The acceleration on this car is uneven - the car jumps when you accelerate from standing still. There is no easy way to ease into a smooth acceleration. The gas pedal is bizarrely located to the farthest right side of the pit so you have push your leg towards the right wall of the pit to be able to accelerate correctly. The passenger seat belt warning signal comes on for no reason- randomly so I have to fasten the seat belt to stop it in an empty seat. The car is cheaply made - period. Now for PROS: The car has pep because of it's 1.5 L Turbo engine. It functions good in highways. When I drove this car for a couple of weeks I could not believe that I am driving a VW because of all the quality issues I was experiencing. The Taos almost feels like it was released in the middle of its design, or it might have been designed by summer COOP students in VW. It does not give you a VW feeling. I would not extend my lease with VW because of what I have experienced with Taos. - Purchased a New car

Stay far far away.
Well, I have officially learned my lesson about buying the first model year of a vehicle, although it sounds like the 2023 models are having some issues as well. Anyway, here is my Taos story... I have had VWs for the last 10 years (a 2012 Jetta and a 2018 Jetta) and thought that I had found my forever brand. I wasn't looking to trade in my Jetta, but when I saw the Taos, I had to have it! In June 2021, I brought her home. Everything seemed great until the first recall regarding fuel lines/connectors. I was provided a rental, but without my car for 6 weeks. Ok, fine. Dec 2022, I get an alert on the app that my coolant is low-I check it and it is fine. I check the next day, not a drop of coolant to be seen and no visible leak. She gets towed to the dealership and I get a call that it just needed topped off. If you look this up-it is a known issue and VW has even fashioned a special tool for accessing the head gaskets as a result. The last 2 times I've taken the car in (once for a state inspection, once for an oil change), there has been a recall that needed addressed right then-one being my rear brakes as there was a defect and they are wearing down rapidly, I can't even remember the other one. Granted recalls do happen and my warranty has been honored, but after so many (I think there have been 5 or 6 in the last 2 years), you start to question the reliability of a car that maybe wasn't ready yet. The latest tow was needed as I was driving my car the 2 miles to a friend's house when it started shuddering with the CEL and EPC light flashing. It calmed down for about 500 feet before doing it again. I had a large hill to go up and I wasn't sure that I was going to make it. The VW dealership that I use called Monday and said that they swapped the ignition coils, but my car barely made it down the road after that, so that clearly wasn't the issue. There were no codes firing, so they called VW to determine next steps. They are now replacing the fuel injectors and harness. I have absolutely no faith in this fixing my car. - Purchased a New car

Worst vehicle I have ever owned!
I've been stranded with this vehicle twice in one year. Low coolant level indicator turns on frequently. Throttle rod has been replaced. Now my oil is leaking. Not a reliable car at all. Car was purchased brand new. - Purchased a New car

Atrocious!
This vehicle has been an absolute nightmare. A year and a half into the lease and it has already had substantially more problems than my old Tundra had in EIGHTEEN YEARS. From faulty sensors to infotainment system failure, this vehicle has been completely unreliable and extremely disappointing. My commute to work is barely 10 miles, and I genuinely do not expect this vehicle to make it there and back. On top of that, the transmission and performance is a joke. The 7-speed transmission just does not work. It is clunky, laggy, and will jerk you around like a bad carnival ride. The biggest issue is VW and dealerships not honoring their warranties, as they have refused repairs on the vehicle, regardless of my extra coverage that I purchased. If you offer a warranty, you 100% honor it. There should be no confusion there. I would not recommend this vehicle to anyone, nor anything else Volkswagen has to offer. The only good thing this miserable little rig has done is reassured me that I should never drive a non-Toyota gain. Unbelievable. - Purchased a New car
