• Hint: Use a descriptive title for your new message
    If you're looking for help and want to draw people in who can assist you, use a descriptive subject title when posting your message. In other words, "I need help with my SUV" could be about anything and can easily be overlooked by people who can help. However, "I need help with my transmission" will draw interest from people who can help with a transmission specific issue. Be as descriptive as you can. Please also post in the appropriate forum. The "Lounge" is for introducing yourself. If you need help with your leather interior, please post in the Interior section - and so on... This message can be closed by clicking the X in the top right corner.

Incorrectly mentions the Telluride can come equipped with rear air suspension instead of self-leveling nivomat shocks. Author sounds like he is more partial towards the Telluride styling in general. Can you blame him? 😁

The Atlas has ZERO pick up when charging up the on ramp. It's ratings are abysmal; no where near the Telluride, particularly in "Reliability" and "Customer Satisfaction" categories. I can't think of 2 worst ratings for a vehicle I was considering buying!!!

Not to pile on the Atlas (or VW)... but, their warranty is horrible. Bumper-to-Bumper 4yr/50k (down from 6yr/72k in 2019). Powertrain is also 4yr/50k...

In today’s market, that just flat out horrible. Against KIA, not even an option to me. And VW’s? Need a repair, better have a fat wallet...

Bottom Line: No thank you VW.
