The comfort of the car in both the control and the seating is incredible.
Car drives smoothly, doesn't have many issues. I have owned 2 cc's, one 2012 and one 2011 and both had an issue with the rear main seal around 90k-100k miles. Aside from that, it's a very enjoyable and comfortable car to drive. It feels heavy but controls very well and is very clearly built around the driver.

Reliability
Try to get rid of it as fast as you can. I didn’t realize that I would be putting money into this pit of a car constantly. With some of the cheap plastic connectors on hoses popping off to the multipel oil leaks. There’s also the problem of carbon build up that has no fix and will cost you over 400$ whenever the car feels like it. It’s great all around but has zero reliability. You also have to put in 91 octane or above which can be annoying when the car still builds up carbon like a smoker. Please get a Audi or BMW or maybe even a Ford. Honestly I think Ford might even be more reliable at this point.

The internal issues I have faced are overlooked because of its external appeal.
I have really bad luck with this car it seems like, my car had a problem with the fuel pump where the power would still be on but the gas wouldn't work. There was also a problem with the turbo where it started making the loudest screeching noise while the car is on. Apparently that is a very common problem with VW CCs. Besides that, I love the look of the car, it has a bullet shaped figure and the interior is beautiful. The acceleration is great on the car as well. The engine sounds like a quiet “purr” which is one of my favorite things about the car. I like the leather seating in the car, I just wish they had a little more mobility. Other than internal problems I have faced, it is one of my favorite cars to drive.

Poor man's Mercedes: When I first saw my cc I thought it was a new Mercedes.
The vehicle is just over 5 years old and now the repairs have gotten very expensive. Volkswagen wants over $2600 to repair a seal leak. Performance has been great and the car has been very reliable. It is comfortable to drive but the wife complains the passenger seat is too low for her to get in and out of the car easily.

Volkswagen cc sport r-line edition.
I had to get my water pump and can cradle reseal done twice. My oil and coolant was leaking very bad. The car is great on gas. The car drives fast and smooth. It also looks clean and sleek. I love the interior of the car, especially the seats, although there are only 4 seats. I also like how the car is a push start.

Why VW cc are bad and reasons why you might not want to buy one.
November 2019 my timing chain stretched. It was a problem with how they made all them cars so VW had to fix it! I do not like it because to fix anything cost a lot of money BC they have to take the whole front end off just to fix it. The lights always come out all over the car. It looks nice but I wouldn't recommend.

Luxury and sporty all in one!
My vehicle is Very dependable, comfortable, it has great gas mileage. It's very nice to drive and has a smooth feeling it has been extremely low maintenance; just the regular maintenance up keep; it's even done well in the snow! It has heated seats heated side mirrors which allows heating up that much easier. Great stereo, Bluetooth and came Siri ready. Plenty of drink holders, a nice trunk, and the back seat has its own temperature control, as well as storage compartment between the seats. Leather seats and comes with fabric and rubber floor mats. 6 disc interchangeable CD player ,

So far is the best car I've purchased for myself so far.
Motor issue but got replaced with a refurbished one. It has technical issues with the radio and Bluetooth. This will be my 3rd time repairing it. Also the original window tints peel off automatically. It is said it's normal. Other than those issues, I am in love with my 2 tone interior sport edition CC.

Drives smooth. Spacious. Cozy. Comfortable.
There is no problems or any concern with my vehicle, I like it the way it is and the features it has it is perfect for me and my kids. Since I got it I haven't had any issues and it drives nice and smooth. I pretty much use my car daily and multiple times a day and it works perfectly fine.

Best euro car I have ever owned.
My cc is reliable best think the motor has a good kick to it and when you need it and the interior feels like luxury. Only think I have an issue with is that for a 4 cy r the car get bad mpg. Other think I like about that car is that the rear has bucket seats so the car is a 4 seater and that perfect so I don't have to give people rides.

My best choice in regards to purchase a vehicle.
It is awesome. Great vehicle and saves a lot of gas. It has been the best decision I have made by purchasing this vehicle. I have had it for 8 years and still kicking. It is a great car and I will keep it for a few more years. My husband and I love it.

VW cc - problems and issues.
I have problems with the tires - they pop easily and often need air. It also had a recall so I had to take it to the dealership to have a part replaced which worried me about it is liability. I also have had issues with the electrical - it says I need a service when I do not, check engine light on when nothing is wrong.
Maya L
on November 24, 2020
The mechanic at Volkswagen told me to get rid of it.
There are so many problems with recalls and my car just stopping and not starting whenever it feels like it. It's expensive to fix it and it's not guaranteed it'll be fixed 100%. It looks amazing but for the most part it's a fragile and frustrating vehicle.

My VW CC Black on Black catches your eye
No issues or problems with this vehicle. Great on gas average hi twenties, plenty of go power too, zero to sixty within seconds. Vehicle handles very well fun to drive on mountain roads. Inside has lots of room in front and in the back. Also bucket seats are adjustable and comfortable too. Trunk is very big plenty of room for golf clubs or groceries.

on November 20, 2020
It is the car I always wanted, but now I regret getting it.
They had been many problems with the engine including the camshaft, water pump, my oil. It costs an arm and a leg to fix it. My car was reliable until in the past year had engine problems and was going to cost more than my car to fix it. My car is comfortable for driving long distances.
Niki T
on November 12, 2020
My car only has 4 seats, the middle seat in the back is just a console.
My car is amazing, it drives fast, changing gear is awesome, the only thing I do not like is I have to buy premium unleaded gas for a 16 gallon tank, and it runs out fast. Over the 2 years of me owning it and listening to music the ceiling “cloth” has started to drop down. The ac in my car could be stronger but I always chalked it up to it being used before.

It is fast. The car goes faster than you would think when you look at it.
I enjoy the features. Fully loaded, touchscreen. Rides beautifully. It also goes very fast and looks great ??.
Dylan T
on October 12, 2020
The car is very fast when you put it in sport mode. The car can take off fast.
The engine is starting to go and I am only at a 100k miles so long term for the car may not be worth it. Also the tires can go often when driving in rough conditions. In terms of weather conditions the car is not made for the snow at all. There have been many times where I slid out of my driveway even due to the snow of weather conditions.

My VW: Nothing but an expensive lemon!
I've had nothing but problems from this car. My tire sensor went out the day after my warranty expired. It's currently in the shop with 30 fault codes. I will never buy a VW again. They can only be repaired in specific places. My radio and GPS went out a year ago. I'm having to replace the battery every six weeks.

2012 Volkswagen cc a recall nightmare to anyone considering buying a car.
There have been many recalls on my Volkswagen cc. I've had a lot of problems with the engine components and the driving lights. I have 110, 000 miles on the car so it is going to have issues. But these issues are mostly because of poorly engineered engine components. I love my car but I would seriously consider my options before buying another Volkswagen. I just don't trust that company anymore.
Gregory H
on September 9, 2020
I am very satisfied with the luxury and engine power that is offered with this vehicle. The turbo does a great job during high speed acceleration.
Premium gas can be expensive. The vehicle does well overall. I usually get around 450-500 miles a Tank.
Levon F
on September 1, 2020
VW cc is a good car would definitely recommend.
Good car having check engine issues but nothing serious I am guessing a sensor. Fun car to drive can do modifications in the car if you want. Pretty smooth has good speed love the turbo. 4 door sedan but only 4 seats but has plenty of room. Definitely would recommend overall even with it is issues.

Beautiful interior and very luxurious.
Vehicle drives great! Very smooth driving and lots of luxurious features for a car from 2012. It is really is a “comfort coupe”. Stereo system is great with 8 total speakers and fantastic sound quality. Another thing I love about it is that the back seats are equally as comfortable as the front seats are, they just do not recline.
Chloe D
on August 17, 2020
All in All a VERY GOOD CAR
The comfort and performance of my VW CC Sport are rated at a 10 for me. Some of the problems I have with the car are, it only has 4 seats and I wish it had a sunroof and backup camera. It is very reliable, if you maintain it correctly, I have owned the car for 5 years now, and I just recently had to get it serviced for major things other than oil change and new tires.
Christie G

German engineering on a budget.
My car is very reliable, it is sleek looking and not very common on the street. It is also very fast and hugs the road when I drive. I love this car because it is a German car that looks very modern and drives like a German car but on a budget. It has been my favorite car of all the cars I have owned.
Jane J

Beautiful, fun, family car.
It is a beautiful car. The features: the dashboard/music, etc, sound, seat heaters, leather seats are great. It is fun to drive. The seats are more of a bucket type of seat and do not have a ton of cushion and support, but they are comfortable enough. There are only 2 passenger seats in the back and the bucket seats can make car seats and boosters a little challenging to install, but with some effort, they install just fine. We purchased the car used and encountered some issues with the spark plugs and electrical system, but it is hard to know if those issues are from the car or the previous owner. Overall, it is a really fun cars to own and drive.
Bethany D
on August 8, 2020
Love my Volkswagen cc sport, it is my favorite car.
Overall a great car with minimum issues until last year. A few major problems with water pump, tires, and gas tank leak. The car has very comfortable bucket seats and sleek design. I always get compliments on how the car looks and feels luxury. I do love how it is only a 4 seater so it is very roomy to all passengers.

New with the cc
Too new I got my used with 102k mikes. I’m having problem with tpms after upgrading my wheels and tires. I don’t know if I can still get in on the recall status. It the first time getting into something that has a lot of miles which I have no record of.
Aryanna D
on July 18, 2020
It is a 2012 Volkswagen cc and it is great on gas.
The only issues I have had with my car is the computer sensors. When I first got it there were issues with them, but it was an easy fix. It runs just fine and very smooth. It has seat warmers and a touch screen monitor in the front, which I love both. It is only a four seater, but there is plenty of space in the back.
Tanner D
on July 16, 2020
A great, stylish, comfortable, and reliable car.
I love the design and the style of the cc. The extra side skirt for the r-line adds a more aggressive stance to the car and causes it to look extremely quick and sleek. The car is also extremely comfortable to ride in and is very quick when it needs to be.
So S
on June 14, 2020
Lots of issues with this car and big costs.
Vehicle has had a lot of issues. Had to replace transmission. Timing chain issue. Lots of other small issues. Oil leaks. New starter needed. Does not drive smooth. I wouldn't recommend this car. They say after 100,000 miles Volkswagens tend to have a lot of problems.
Rita Q
on May 30, 2020
I love how sleek the car looks.
I like my car but I fixed the driver brake light it keeps coming out and wont stay in. I like how the car handles and feels. The only thing I would change is the cup holder built it to the backseat. It takes up a whole spot for someone to sit. I would recommend the car.
Julie K

The cost of maintenance and repair. The parts are expensive also.
Maintenance and parts for my car are very expensive. It does get fairly decent gas mileage. It seems my car did well until 66k Miles.

Clean and sporty luxury car.
I love my cc. I bought it in 3918 and it is a 2012. Single owner and only 52,000 miles on it. Very clean line new and have not had any problems as the other owner keep a regular maintenance e schedule and followed it. There were two recalls right after I bought it and toon it in but have not had any others problems.
Adrin G

VW cc, the good and the bad from a honest perspective.
Very nice looking car with ok engine but issues. Timing chain issue is constant scare. The car drinks oil like I drink water. Plastic important parts like water pump constantly fails. Has the look of a Benz with decent drivability. Quick when engine is in good shape.
Lindsey V
on April 22, 2020
I would not recommend Volkswagen to anyone. The cars come with many issues.
It is a terrible car too many issues. I have only had it a year and I have a bad oil leak, coolant leak, along with many other issues. It is a nice sleek looking car but internally it is unreliable. It has many features like Bluetooth, heated seats, and a back up camera.

Great for making your everyday driving fun!
Car has great turn radius and acceleration. Shortly after or purchase the car started shutting off when it hit 3rd gear. It has since been corrected but wasn't a transmission issue, it was a shift solenoid. Overall the car has been great and has a ton of technology features for a 2012 model.
Karina F
on April 2, 2020
My car is a Volkswagen cc and overall it is a good car but very needy.
I have had my car for about 3 years and often I would find myself having to fix something, the little light that tells you something is wrong would often come up on my dashboard. It was usually things to do with the electrical part. It would be kind of annoying having to see what’s up with my car often. A few months ago I did get stuff that were recalled on fixed for free at a Volkswagen place and it has helped a lot. My car still does drive good I haven't had super serious issues with it. But my next car will probably be something that is more easier to deal with.
Ricahrd H

Great performance prepare for repairs.
The VW cc r line drives very well. I have a stick shift which makes it even more fun to drive. Unfortunately, for this vehicle there has been a large number of manufacturer recalls and now that the miles are outside of warranty small sensors and other items go out making it a bit frustrating and expensive to fix.
Dan B

VW cc rocks with quality, speed and good looks!
Quick. Handles great. Performance is outstanding. Corners well. Looks good. Low maintenance requirements. Priced reasonably on initial purchase. Interior is sharp and wears well. Great get up and go with the 4 cylinder turbo. Low profile helps it hug the road and good speed. Does well in snow also.

Great lil luxury sport car
It's fully loaded with all the bells & whistles, EXCELLENT gas mileage about 40 miles to the gallon and I have a heavy foot. Turbocharged so it really has some pep to its step. I love that the interior trim is absolutely high quality material. I feel like I'm driving a Mercedes only I pay a fraction of the cost compared to a Mercedes

Its the worst car you can possibly own
I've had my VW CC 2.0T 2012 for a year now and since the second day of owning my beautiful car, I've had MANY issues with it. It has malfunction problems until this day. The air bags broke within a week of having it as well as the fuse and air conditioner. I've had problems with the hoses and engine and windshield wipers along with the part that sprays the window cleaner on the front window. Almost everything in my car was messed up and I spent more money fixing it than buying it. I have problems with this car still to this day. As much as I love my car I WOULD NOT recommend owning this car, to anyone. If you don't have a well paying job don't own this car I promise you will used every paycheck trying to fix it. Like I said I love my car but honestly ive been saving for a better one since ike the second month of having my VW CC 2.0T 2012. I'm not sure if ALL VW cars have this many problems. If they do the engineers need to think harder on perfecting such a beautiful car. -Roni

Great car love it is audio and look and feel. It is a great car.
Do not have a lot of problems with the vehicle. Love the audio that I get from the speakers this is the best audio I have had in a car. Iris a wide car which makes parking difficult sometimes. Very comfortable car it is roomy with a big trunk to store anything you could want in it. I have had no performance or reliability issues with the car. It looks like a sleek car and is very cool.
Brandon J

It has the r-line trim and black and white leather interior.
My car runs good so far. Although maintenance costs are higher than other cars, I still would recommend anyone to purchase a VW. My cc sport runs like a champ. The r line trim adds extra torque to the engine. If you like to go fast buy this car quickly!

Smooth ride handles great.
My car is extremely comfortable it rides better than my mother's Mercedes. The turbo is great it, the Cruz control is easy to use, one button. And you are good to go. I had to replace wheel-bearings on both sides car does have over 130,000 miles, car handling is excellent.

Bad experience with VW service departments. Had some issues anytime my car got wet, but got issues resolved. Also, alignment issues.
Cassidy L
on June 14, 2019
I don't have anything to say about it.
I haven't even had this car a year and it sucks. It's been in and out of the car shop for the 4th time. It is common for parts to go out on this car that is not covered by warranty. May have just been things that were looked over and not fixed the first time.
Ashley V
on June 13, 2019
Best car ever Volkswagen cc!
I love the gas mileage, the color of interior as well as the comfort! It is great for long trips and short trips around town. The price is very reasonable for the make and model. I have had it for about 4 weeks and I would not give it up! It is my first time owning a Volkswagen and I do not think I'll ever switch. I feel like I will be in one forever.

Once one issue starts they all start. Expensive to fix but good car overall. Drives very smooth and is very luxurious. Comparable to a Mercedes in style and driving. Great car for someone trying to have fun. Not that great as a family car. Would recommend

2012 VW cc r-line 4 years ownership.
My car problems are that is being recall for the takata airbags, and lug nuts lock. I love the performance of my car, it is turbo, so is fast when you need it, and is economical when you are driving in a normal environment. I been driving this car for the last 4 years, and is a great commuter, beside the recall, this car is really reliable and very well made. The interior has nice leather seats, and a 7'' inch screen infosystem. The car in instruments could be better, but the are really easy to read, and pack with your car data.
Jen I
on April 13, 2019
Way too much money spent on repairs compared to previous cars I have owned.

A reliable car that rides smoothly
For the most part, the VW CC is a good car with a smooth ride. I have no complaints except for the gas mileage. I've had the car for about 6 years and it has kept up pretty well. It is a relatively comfortable car with nice leather seats that come with seat warming capabilities that can be very helpful in colder weather.
John S
on March 25, 2019
Volkswagens are reliable but can be expensive to maintain over time.
I have had the car for 7 years and it has been great. The only thing I don't really care for is the DSG transmission. I think it saps the engine of some power because it shifts at odd times.
Liz S
on February 26, 2019
Sporty look and drive in a sedan.
I love to drive my car as it is comfortable, and beautiful. This is the second cc I have owned. I have had transmission problems twice with this car. In fact, it is at the dealership now needing a 2nd new transmission and it is out of warranty because the 2nd transmission came with a 1 year/12k warranty and I am beyond that in miles.

I do like the slope of the rear of the car to the front!
I needed a water pump and thank god it was covered under warranty it recently is losing oil since I had an oil change in July I have had to add oil twice. I did go to the dealer and made arrangements to take it in. The ride is very comfortable and has not let me down when needed to start it. The tires that I need for this car is very expensive!

It is a small, fast car with all around good reliability and modern features.
Very reliable, good car, very comfortable. Has nice features such as radio, Bluetooth audio, hands free calls. It is just very small. It accelerates fast and can hold speed for a while. Not very good gas mileage. Find myself refilling gas very often. Otherwise a very reliable and good car.
Sofia G

Volkswagen vehicles tend to last a long time. I had my last one for over 12 years without any major issues.
I like the size of my vehicle because it has 4 doors and 4 seats. The trunk is roomy and so it the interior. I also like the way it drives. I can feel the acceleration and feel like I have control of the road.
Susan M

Nice looking piece of junk.
Bought the car used from a dealer. Immediately began having problems, none of which have been inexpensive to fix. From carbon build up to oil leaks to needing the coolant housing replaced. I love how smooth it runs *when* it runs, but I'll never buy another VW.
Renell M
on October 28, 2018
Great foreign car with the need for speed drive.
The Volkswagen is reliable & efficient. Great on gas & drives really well. I love that it is a sport car & drives fast but, it is considered a foreign car so, maintenance is always a hassle. It is sleek shape is also a plus for that luxury that we all crave.
Melissa C
on October 26, 2018
It has automatic windshield wiper.
The car had not given me any problems, performance is great, it is very reliable to go to far distances like another state, it is pretty comfortable except the back seat which has a plastic area for cups and other things. The car is very nice overall.

Common issues with Volkswagen.
Replaced the rear main due to an oil leak that is apparently common in this model, have had to replace the wheel speed sensors which caused all the dash lights to come on, have had a engine air leak which caused my car to shut off when stopped, have had my battery die randomly.
