We've owned a 2018 Tig for ~3 years and would buy again. Reliability at 60k miles has been fairly solid. We did have a problem with the fuel injector harness at 50k miles and it was replaced under warranty. No other issues. The 8 speed transmission is agreeable, no complaints. As well documented elsewhere, it is not one of the fastest compact SUVs, and the engine when pushed hard sounds more like a tractor than a sports car. The total car though is better than its rivals for us. We are running Yokohama Parada Spec-X tires which sharpened up the handling, and it already was competitive in that area. With good handling, steering and visibility, the Tig is not just competent, but even a little fun to drive in its own right. Ours is the R Line SEL Premium. The adaptive LED headlights on this trim level are good. The interior is a pleasant place to be, and materials have all held up well.
Pros: Reliability has been solid
Cons: engine sounds like tractor

Brakes don't squeal, but, at least when they're cold, they seem to grind/shudder/skip (not a warped rotor type of shudder) at low speeds.
Pros: brakes don't squeal
Cons: grind/shudder/skip when cold

I am now at about 55k and the water pump failed on it causing it to overheat. I learned that the 2015 gen 3 TDIs have a variable water pump that fails quite often causing overheating - just a matter of time.
Cons: water pump failed, overheating

I had a bosch alternator in my Mark 2.. 8valve motor. I noticed the battery was not being charged. so instead of dealing with the voltage regulator or brushes etc, b/c the unit was old I decided to go with a brand new one. making me think i should have ponied up to the Bosch.
Cons: battery not being charged
