If stains or marks are noted on the rear glass during PDI, they can be polished out.
Utilize a quality glass polish, which contains cerium oxide (e.g. 3M Glass Polishing
Compound, part number 60150) to clean the glass and remove stains. This will
need to be obtained through a vendor, as it is not available through VW.

If a 2014 Model Year vehicle equipped with the Car Net™ system experiences a
customer complaint where the system is placing false outbound calls, it is possible
that the cause is a loose or unplugged connector at the 3-Button Assembly in the
overhead console. If this concern is verified and there is no damage to the
terminal(s) or connector(s), simply secure or plug in the loose connector.
