My girlfriends 2022 Taos has only gone through regular maintenance every 5k miles, there was an evap canister issue at the beginning of January, but got it taken care of. 2 years and going strong!
Thank you for this excellent video. Just leased a 2024 Taos 3 days ago with 11 miles on it. I pray there are no issues. Best always brother!! Robert NYC.
Just started having an issue? with my 2023 Taos orange car icon (emergency Assist?) showing up on dashboard and the steering wheel feels like a quick pulse of something going on. Did you have anything like that happen?
My 23 Taos SEL is having ECP issues. They replaced the knock sensor which they said was dead, and now the RPM skyrockets to almost 3,000 barely accelerating. Also not to mention, my check engine light is on now. Only 11,300 miles
I wonder if it was just a fuel pump sensor connector that came loose. No money for the dealer so they changed the whole fuel pump. How do you know? Scribe a mark on your old fuel pump. When they replace it, they have to return you the old part. You can then take it to another mechanic to see it was really the problem.
OMG… sorry to hear about these issues. I am aware from some people I know at a VW dealership that the stalling issue has been problematic. My 22 Taos SEL 4motion infotainment system has only one minor issue with the Bluetooth cutting out occasionally. As far as the Adaptive cruise control goes it works perfectly. The other night I got 40 mpg Highway on a short 71 mile trip with cruise control set at 70. I couldn’t believe I got such excellent fuel efficiency. The Taos is rated 32 MPG Highway for the 4motion. I’m very pleased with my purchase and highly recommend this vehicle!
I have a 2022 taos SE and it did this last week while i was pulling out from a restaurant. EPC light came on and other lights too. Would not turn on, the gas pedal just went all the way down with no resistance. Transmission did not work either. My dealership kept telling me its not under the recall for the fuel pump, but i know they sre not telling me the truth.
@@CarshowRellStudios I think VW in general have fuel pump issues, I have a 2021 TCross comfortline, it died due to fuel pump issues, had to take it to the "main" dealeship 4 hours away, cause local dealership was trash
You got no fricken gas in the fuel tank. No miles remaining on trip odometer, and no gas in the tank. RTFM! Your fuel gauge says empty! Put 5 gallons of regular in the fuel tank.
I also have the same color and year. 14k miles engine light came on. They replaced the rear brakes as well. Took 5 days to replace it. I have another appointment for this issue next week.
@@michaelulrich3474 just replaced the brakes on this one at 9k miles few weeks ago. I heard the 2024 mode they worked out a lot of the kinks. Hopefully yours wil be sorted soon 🤞
‘24 should be fine, i believe VW did a lot of work to fix the issues. I’m planning on getting one soon. I think they look very handsome, almost like a baby Atlas, and i found even the AWD DSG was smooth (in my opinion). I spend a lot of time on the highway, especially in the winter, as well as driving on twisty mountain roads that dont get plowed much, so the AWD is pretty much a must now for me. All in all, i’d say a Taos (if it’s a 2024) should be okay now for a while. At least until the warranty is up, then i’d probably trade it for something else

Good news to know 😃🙏
It's like any other vehicle. Shit can go wrong. it's a hit and miss.

I have a 2023 with 30k miles bought it brand new and I’ve had zero issues. Best car I’ve had.

Not sure if it’s recalls on it yet but the dealership we took it too replaced it under the warranty.
@@CarshowRellStudioshow long did it take?
@@BossInVegas1 day
@@CarshowRellStudios local dealership by me of course "systems were down" this morning. Joke.
@@BossInVegas try another dealership
There is a recall for Fuel Delivery Module on this vehicle. So better go to dealership and make them fix it.
Ahh haa ok. I gotta check the paperwork not sure if that was replaced along with the fuel pump.

2022 Taos here…25k miles…no issues
If your Taos is 2023 or older they all have a head gasket issue. Should be repaired under warranty.
Did they detail the oil from the tow?
Nope. I ended up getting it detailed myself.
They should give you a new one or your money back -lemon law
This breaks my heart because I got the 2022 and it needs a new engine.
@@DesertGrownWeed sorry to hear 😤
My daughter is looking at a 2022 Taos. I think we could look at a different car. Has anyone gotten the car permanently fixed????
@@AniMotion68 go for 2024 if she can from what im hearing so far they have fixed tons of the issues
What year is that taos?
@@mar9belle 2023 brand new when we got it
Bring out the service manager in those stains and mess!
2023 Taos SE 4motion no issues over 33,000.
thank you for reporting on your Taos 🙌

WRONG. I personally filled up tank the night before. It’s been stated as common issue with the Taos.
Man my Taos is annoying, they replaced the fuel tank a month ago. My gas gauge still doesn’t go past 3 bars even when I fill it up.
I also have the same color and year. 14k miles engine light came on. They replaced the rear brakes as well. Took 5 days to replace it. I have another appointment for this issue next week.
@@michaelulrich3474 sorry to hear that. Haven’t had another fuel issue since (knock on wood) it’s been 5 months almost 🤞

I just got out of my 2021 A5 sportback for a 22 Taos, I might be cooked based on these comments.😅
@@diz354 I pray you’re good 😆
So Do NOT BUY??
@@Menga213 do as you please. My wife loves the truck even with the quirks.

The 2022 POS does the same thing
@@davidbardwell6354 heard 2022 has tons of issues. Was that the first year of production for the Taos?
Never liked VWs never
