"Security & Service" features functions that will make your journey even safer. The Car-Net Service package offers you mobile access to important vehicle functions and combines security with transparency for even more comfort. Whether for Service Scheduling, Automatic Accident Notification, Breakdown Call or the Online Anti-Theft Alarm, your can call up support you in every situation that will provide you with all the key information you need regarding your mobility.
With the Emergency Call Service you are covered in the event of a serious incident. In emergency situations, your vehicle calls for help automatically or you can press a button to do so. If your Volkswagen detects an accident, the Service connects to the Volkswagen Emergency Call Centre and passes on key information. The Emergency call Centre will deploy the emergency services if required.
Before you drive, you can get information about the current status of the vehicle. The Vehicle Health Report can be created manually or automatically and displays any existing warning messages and service events due.
Volkswagen takes care of everything else so you can experience maximum enjoyment at the wheel. When a service appointment is due, your Volkswagen communicates the data to your preferred Volkswagen Retailer or Authorised Repairer. You will then be contacted by them to agree a convenient appointment.
In the event of a breakdown, we get to your location quickly. Simply by pressing a button you can call for breakdown assistance from your vehicle which will send your location and vehicle information to the Volkswagen Roadside Assistance service. A member of staff will then help you to identify the cause of the breakdown or will dispatch a service vehicle to you if the problem cannot be solved immediately.
Your Volkswagen now makes sure that you stay safe. When the crash sensor detects a slight accident, this service offers you support. If the Service is activated, your vehicle data will be transmitted following your confirmation, and a Call Centre agent will speak with you to determine the next steps.
Forgotten where you’ve parked your Volkswagen? With the Parking Position service, you just have to touch your smartphone display and it’ll tell you where your car’s parked. And the quickest way to get to it, if needs be.

With the “Speed Alert” service, you can activate selected speed limits which the driver of your vehicle should follow. You are automatically notified if the defined speed is exceeded.
The horn and hazard warning lights can be remotely controlled via the Car-Net app with the Horn & Turn Signals Service.
