    Error: Electrical System. Stop!

    I do believe within the next ten years electric cars will be cheaper to build and significantly more reliable than gas cars, besides being obviously cheaper to run. Clearly VW missed something when it came to reliability testing for the eGolf, which might be why it was discontinued. The fact...

    Error: Electrical System. Stop!

    Check with a lemon law attorney, being 2 months in the shop in one stretch seems like a crazy long time. You may be able to return the car and get a refund. [[/b][/b]

    Error: Electrical System. Stop!

    Good sleuthing indeed! You were right on the cell modules. The service tech didn't mention cell modules and just said 'cells'. I scanned the parts list and noticed CELL MOD, and there are 2 not 3, unless he meant 3 cells were determined to be bad and they happen to be in the 2 modules...

    Error: Electrical System. Stop!

    My 2019 eGolf got crippled by the same error. Fortunately I wasn't driving then but instead it happened when parked in my garage. I got it towed to the dealership and their diagnostics showed that multiple cells failed to charge. I was told by the service advisor that VW wanted to keep my car...
