Suspect the engine coolant is leaking. purchased Taos 2022 high line on 31dec2021(Canada) and I had this 'Engine coolant level low warning light is on dashboard. VW service tech filled up the coolant on July2022. But again on 7sep2022, coolant level low light showed up. next day, drove into service centre and found coolant level is low. Filled up the coolant and I am going to drop off the car at VW service tomorrow for diagnosis. Suspect the engine coolant leakage issue. Does anyone have this issue? Please share. 14000 KM into my Taos, i am not a happy customer. I got one recall and visited service centre three times. started to worry about reliability. regards, Nas
My Toas 2022 at about 17k miles was just at service for 4 months for a coolant leak on my engine block. I had my car for 1 year before any issues. Went in for normal service (my coolant light had just come on but it was due so I wasn't concerned), left with no lights and then a couple days later the light came back on. I assumed it was just human error and stopped by to have it filled. Then the light came back on a few days later again so I scheduled a diagnostic appointment. They told me it was bone dry when I showed up. They filled it and tried to send me home so I asked again for a diagnostic and then they found the problem. Needed a ton of 'specialty' parts taking months to get in. The service team told me they're getting lots of Toas drivers in for coolant issues. Well Ive had my car back for less than a week and now its leaking coolant again. I called and have to drop it back off. Hope Im not out of my car for another 4 months. I would definitely question reliability.

My wife's 2022 Taos SEL AWD had the same issue, so I took it into the dealership for evaluation. They initially told me that it might cost me to have them diagnose the issue, :rolleyes:, but then they figured out that there was a leak which would require way more time to diagnosis, let alone fix, all of which would be covered. It's been 2 weeks since we took the car in and received a loaner for her to drive while they went thru the process to repair it. After a week and a half, the service rep called me to say that it likely won't be completely finished until this coming Monday, although there is a possibility it will be done Friday. The repair included a new head gasket, which has taken time to get from Canada, per the rep. Also, when I had it there for the initial diagnosis, the service rep said that they "are still figuring out how to work on this car with some of the more complex scenarios, as it is still pretty new to them." If you still have an issue with antifreeze leaking, I would definitely mention this to the dealer and have them evaluate the head gasket for leaks....
