Owner complaint summary

I was driving my 2024 ID.4 S when an error popped up stating that I needed to “clean front parking sensors” and “maneuver braking is unavailable.” At my earliest convenience I attempted to clean the sensors but the issue persisted. Upon consult with the dealership I was informed that the sensors have a tiny rock knick and my front sensors need replacing. This was a $1700 repair. The vehicle is only a year old and has been driven very carefully. My concern is that. Volkswagen Auto Group uses cheap sensors print to failure and as a result my emergency maneuver braking feature is at risk of not working.

This is an owner complaint filed with NHTSA (ODI #11680137). It is not automatically an official recall, investigation outcome, or manufacturer admission unless the complaint text itself describes one.
