Consumer Review Video - 2018 Volkswagen Atlas SE 3.6L V6

Common problems and easy repairs on a 2018 Atlas

The 2018 Volkswagen Atlas SE is relatively difficult to maintain. The LED headlights will need entire housing replacements should they burn out, but the fog light in particular requires tools to disengage the wheel well lining for access to it—neither of which allow for reliable changes. Performing coolant flushes or oil changes will be problematic as a bulky panel will need to be removed from underneath the vehicle first. The wiper blades require tools and service position engagement to disconnect them from their wiper arms.

However, the 2018 Volkswagen Atlas SE has its upsides. Connecting your phone via Bluetooth won’t be a problem given the clear instructions on the touchscreen menu. The fuses can be reliably changed thanks to their easy access and provision of a fuse puller. Access to the battery is relatively unobstructed and will make for hassle-free jumpstarts and replacements.
