Known issues for this car

Before you buy this car

From the generation guide

1. Open and close each sliding door with the switch and the key. Watch for a door that slides shut and back open, and listen for the motor.
2. Listen for rattles over bumps, and check the drop links and wishbone bushes for play.
3. On a start-stop car, watch for slow cranking. Ask for the battery age.
4. Check the brake discs for a poor contact pattern and the pads for wear.
5. Look inside the front A-pillars for water marks, especially on a panoramic roof car.
6. Check the bottom edges of the tailgate and the lower door edges for rust.
7. Ask a SEAT dealer to check the VIN for open recall work on the airbag, the emissions software and the starter switch.
8. Check that the air conditioning blows cold air on the lowest setting.
