When attempting to accelerate, after a stop light had turned green, I got a message on the cockpit display which read "All Wheel Drive is limited. Please modify your driving style."

Acceleration was very sluggish for 5 or so seconds before the vehicle responded.

I've searched the owner's manual but have been unable to find any reference to such a message.

A call to Customer Care encountered excessive hold times and the earliest available time to schedule a call back was 2 days from today.

Has anyone experienced such a message?

What was your battery percentage? Think that max AWD performance is only available above 85(ish?) percent or something. Else it could also be heat related.

why not contact your dealer?

The SOC was 62%. Temp in the low 80s and I had only driven 22 miles so I don't think heat was an issue. I may eventually have to contact a dealer if I can't get an explanation of the alert message from VW Customer Care. The message disappeared as soon as the car began to respond normally.
