Volkswagen Id.4 problems
The Volkswagen ID.4 and Volkswagen ID.5 are battery electric compact crossover SUVs produced by Volkswagen. Based on the MEB platform, the ID.4 is the second model of the Volkswagen ID. series. The production version of the ID.4 debuted in September 2020 as the first fully-electric crossover SUV under the Volkswagen brand, while the coupe-shaped variant of the ID.4 (akin to the Audi Q8 Sportback e-tron) is marketed as the Volkswagen ID.5 and was revealed in November 2021.
The ID.4 is positioned by Volkswagen as a high-volume, mass-market electric vehicle — a car for "the millions, not the millionaires," as the company claimed in its advertising. It was delivered to European customers from late 2020, and the first quarter of 2021 for the North American market.
The ID.4 was elected World Car of the Year 2021 over runner-ups Honda e and Toyota Yaris.
The vehicle was updated for the 2024 model year; this includes a new, more powerful electric motor.

Common Volkswagen Id.4 problems
The Volkswagen ID.4, a popular electric vehicle (EV), has been praised for its sleek design and modern gizmos. However, like any other vehicle, it is not without its share of common problems that may affect its owners. This article will delve into some of these issues and provide insights into potential fixes.
- Active Safety Systems: Issues with active safety systems, such as adaptive cruise control and speed-controlling functions, have been reported in the broadly similar and slightly older sibling to the ID.4, the ID 3. These problems suggest that the electrical features on the early ID cars may be prone to bugs and issues.
- In-car Electronics: Owners of the Volkswagen ID.4 have reported trouble spots related to in-car electronics, including issues with the climate system, EV charging, EV battery, noises and leaks, electric motor, steering and suspension, and brakes.
- Software Issues: Some owners have reported that the software in the ID.4 needs improvement, with the user interface being slightly buggy and not intuitive. This can affect the overall driving experience and may require software updates to address.
- Reliability: The Volkswagen ID.4 did not feature in the most recent What Car? Reliability Survey due to a lack of respondents. However, its smaller sibling, the ID 3, finished seventh out of 12 electric cars polled, indicating that the ID.4's reliability may be comparable to that of other electric vehicles in its class.
In conclusion, while the Volkswagen ID.4 is a cutting-edge electric vehicle with a sleek design and modern gizmos, it is not without its share of common problems. These issues range from engine stalling due to software or battery connection problems to infotainment system hiccups and active safety system bugs. By staying informed about these issues and being proactive in addressing them, ID.4 owners can ensure a smoother and more enjoyable driving experience.

My car is brand new when I got it and has approximately 22K mile when it happened, it 25K mile now. I took it to the Volkswagen dealership it they did not take my car to diagnose because they said that their is recall already regarding the issue and their is no fix available at that time ...

- Components: VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL,UNKNOWN OR OTHER,FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE
- Summary: As I was driving, the infotainment screen went black and Apple CarPlay stopped playing. As this happened, the driver’s information screen still worked but changed to grey scale colors. After about 4 minutes of the infotainment screen being black, the driver’s info screen also went black. This continued for about one more minute when both screens rebooted on their own.
Volkswagen Id.4 2023
- Date Of Incident: 2024-03-01
- Date Complaint: 2024-10-24
- VIN: 1V2WNPE8XPC
- Components: ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
- Summary: All instrument panels and electric panels turn black. It is not replicable, it is not predictable, and there is no fix yet available. I have been in touch with VW and my dealer multiple times, and they do not have a fix. My dealer asked me to escalate the issue to the corporate side of VW and I did - they told me that I should take it into service. We got the service center on the line and they told them the same thing they told me: there is no fix available for this issue. As we go into winter, this has now become a CRITICAL safety issue. I cannot safely drive my vehicle, particularly in the snow or in the mountains, where I live. I am appalled at their lack of regard for this issue, and have requested to trade my vehicle in for the model that does not have the issue. They have informed me that is not an option. I am at a loss - I have a vehicle that I pay for that I cannot reliably drive. I have to drive my other leased vehicle so much that we are well over the mileage. This cannot continue like this.

- VIN: 1V2FMPE86PC
- Components: UNKNOWN OR OTHER
- Summary: The door handle is an electronic button with a manual lever for the door to open in case there is no power or an emergency when a rescuer needs to open the door. I noticed only 1 door handle could do this and brought in for repair. The rest requires a lot more strength and 3 of the 4 doors work, but the dealership is reluctantly replacing the failed door handle. There are many who have the same issue but many who aren’t aware the potential danger during an emergency.

- Summary: My cars backup cameras have never worked properly and the dealer keeps changing me $485.00 to run a complete diagnostic every time I take it in. My car will erratically pulled to the right for no reason and caused the right front tire to blow forcing me to have it towed to the dealer and they had to replace both front tires which cost me $900.00 to replace. The car locked up the brakes and turned it to the right causing me to sever my left outer thumb which has cost me over $700.00 so far and is going to require me to have 4+ hours of surgery on my thumb by a surgeon and they haven't given me the cost of the surgery yet but it is estimated at over $7,000.00 and I am left handed and doesn't allow me to use that hand to hold the steering wheel or anything else.

VW told me they do not have the technology yet to fix it, even though it is a huge hazard. in addition the car has a problem charging and holding the charge. The display of the miles is not accurate as to how much energy the car holds. In addition the contract said I had 3 years of free charging, but that has been taken away. so the car cannot charge well in addition to no free charging.

- Date Of Incident: 2024-08-20
- Date Complaint: 2024-10-19
- VIN: WVGDMPE26MP
- Components: ELECTRICAL SYSTEM,SERVICE BRAKES
- Summary: 1. Electronic brake system failure - the vehicle exhibited this issue and so far it appears Volkswagen does not have a resolution. Vehicle has been at the dealership for almost 2 months and they have not been able to fix. Several other reports show that this is a consistent issue with the ID4 (probably the first edition). Fixed are often temporary and the issues resurfaces again 2. Battery Module issue: it appears these vehicles have defective batteries. One module was fixed by Volkswagen - however the capacity only dropped further. I suspect there is a major issue with these batteries and pose a fire hazard (similar to Chevy Bolt) and Volkswagen is intentionally concealing this fact.

- Date Complaint: 2024-10-16
- Crash: 1
- VIN: 1V2JNPE81PC
- Components: AIR BAGS,VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL,SERVICE BRAKES
- Summary: I was backing out of an outdoor shopping center slot located at the end by the curb. I had to attempt this three times due to traffic and another car that was also trying to back out. On my third attempt, I hit the curb with my passenger rear wheel. When I changed gear to move forward, the ID4 jerked violently three times. At this point my hands were on the wheel and my feet were not on either the accelerator or the brake. Immediately after the third jerk the engine revved up and car took off. I tried to brake but was flying over 2 curb hit the road and flew over 2 more curbs with plants in the middle. The braking did not stop the vehicle. Coming up over the last curb the vehicle hit a parked car sending backward and it hit 2 more vehicles. No one was injured, since the vehicles were empty. The police did come and wrote an incident report, but not a police report because in California since it was property only they do not generate a report. However, this could have been fatal since people were waking about the parking lot. There were not any warning lights or messages. It has not as yet been inspected by by anyone . The car is available for inspection at a collision center. I am not sure which component failed and why it accelerated, or did not respond to the brake, or deploy the air bag upon impact.
Volkswagen Id.4 2021
- Date Of Incident: 2024-10-14
- Date Complaint: 2024-10-14
- VIN: WVGUNPE25MP
- Components: SERVICE BRAKES
- Summary: After installing the latest over-the-air software update few days ago, our car began exhibiting a serious braking issue. When coming to a stop, the brakes lock while the vehicle is still in motion, causing a sudden and dramatic jerk forward. This occurs nearly every time we decelerate to a stop, regardless of speed or road conditions. This problem has escalated to the point where we no longer feel safe driving the car, as it poses a risk to the occupants due to its forceful nature

- Date Complaint: 2024-10-14
- VIN: WVGUNPE20MP
- Components: POWER TRAIN,ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
- Summary: The 12v battery powering the electrical system failed. This caused the vehicle to stop unexpectedly in the middle of a busy street worth traffic on either side of the vehicle. All attempts to restart the vehicle resulted in an error stating the electrical system has failed. The problem was reproduced at the dealership. The techs were unable to diagnose the errors. The manufacturer is sending a District Representative to investigate. The vehicle component was recalled in 2023 and replaced by the dealer to address this specific issue and risk. There were zero warning lights prior to the vehicle stalling. Once stalled, the vehicle was able to start, but unable to drive, and all dashboard warning lights activated.

- VIN: WVGGNPE28NP
- Components: VISIBILITY/WIPER
- Summary: In the VW ID.4, one can retract the rear-view mirrors, making the car a bit narrower, for example for parking. Multiple times, I have started the car and been unable to extend the rear-view mirrors. Not only can I not use the rear-view mirrors, but also, I am distracted trying to figure out how to make them extend. For example, I turn the switch multiple times and failing that, I LOOK at the switch (instead of the road) to verify that I am moving the correct item. This problem has been temporarily mitigated by pulling over, turning off the car, and re-starting it.

This is a state of the art car! It sounds like you're going to have a lot of fun exploring all the technology it has to offer. The ride is so smooth and stable, which makes me feel safe and secure. I'm glad to hear that you're happy with your purchase, even though it was quite pricey.

We purchased the 2021 ID.4 Pro S RWD and have already driven 40k miles on it. We have only had to deal with two flat tires, but other than that, there have been no maintenance costs. The car is surprisingly quiet and rides smoothly, with decent acceleration. The turning circle is very tight, even better than some subcompacts! My wife was particularly impressed with the seats, which have adjustable lumbar support and even a massage feature. While some reviewers have complained about the software, we have not had any major issues with it. It is true that the VW navigation is not the strongest and the VW voice recognition could be improved, but we use Android Auto & Google Maps, so it doesn't really matter. Additionally, the travel assist is very relaxing, with Lane centering and adaptive cruise control. Overall, we absolutely love our car!

You've owned a dozen sedans, mostly Camry, Malibu, Impala etc. and this one might just be the best of the lot! It's very enjoyable and comfortable, and I'm glad to hear that you're enjoying the adaptive cruise control and the quietness. It sounds like a great road car! I understand that you looked at the Model 3 and Y, but couldn't justify the added price. From what you've said, it seems like Tesla overestimates their range estimates, while VW underestimates. I'm happy to hear that there are Electrify America stations in every major city in Ohio. It sounds like the Tesla is a good choice if you're looking for the brand or speed, but for those who aren't, the VW is a great option. When the sedan version comes out, it sounds like you'll be interested in buying that too. I'm glad to hear that your wife loves it!

The all Electric ID4 has been a joy to own and operate. We added a home 220v fast charger to make charging more realistic, as the 120v charger that comes with the car is almost worthless, giving about 3 miles of charge per hour. It's really nice that the car comes with free 3 years of Electrify America charging. Although not all features are intuitive, we're enjoying discovering new little features almost every time we drive!

I have experience with the ID 4 as a company car in Sweden and unfortunately, it has been the most unpleasant car experience of my life. The user interface is seriously flawed and it is just mind-boggling how VW, one of the world's biggest car makers, could launch something so expensive and still so horribly bad! The infotainment system totally lacks structure, making it a nightmare to use. The inner lighting is also a joke, and the motion sensor on/off is just totally senile. Maneuvering the windows and mirrors is also quite difficult. However, the Lane Assist system is the most dangerous feature of all. It tries to keep you

Goods: The car rides comfortably and smoothly, with a spacious back seat. At low speeds, it is impressively quiet. The exterior design is attractive and stands out among other EVs. The car's technology is user-friendly and offers a variety of features to make driving easier. Visibility is excellent, and the air conditioning works very well. Bads: Although the interior is sleek, the overuse of piano black can be a bit overwhelming. The infotainment system could be smoother compared to other competitors. The touch area for the volume and temperature controls is not illuminated, making it difficult to see at night. Fingerprints tend to show up easily on the infotainment screen. At speeds above 60 miles per hour, there is noticeable wind noise. The pedestrian sound at speeds under 20 miles per hour is louder than necessary and exceeds US standards. There are some design and assembly issues in certain areas that make you question the car's quality. The doors and hood are quite heavy.

It's great that VW is making an effort to produce an electric car, but there is definitely room for improvement. The electronics are decent, but the delayed charging could use some work as it is not consistent. The app is basic and could benefit from more features. Compared to similar cars, Hyundai seems to have better features. However, one plus point for the VW is the tax credit. It's worth noting that VW recommends charging up to 80% rather than 100%, which does limit the range but can help with usage in the long run.
