The 2015 Volkswagen CC has an overall defect rate of 192 per 100 vehicles, which is 12.8% higher than the average for its year at 170 per 100. Notably, the CC performs significantly better in categories such as steering, lights and electrics, and body/structure, with defect rates well below the average. However, it has a concerningly high defect rate of 266 per 100 in the wheels, suspensions, and axles category, which is considerably worse than the average of 174 per 100.

Overall, while the CC excels in certain areas, its performance in suspension-related defects raises potential concerns for owners.
