2000 Volkswagen Jetta GLS 2.0L 4 cylinder from North America
Summary:
A piece of trash. Avoid
Faults:
The check engine light comes on every 250 miles. I've stopped taking it to the dealer for each occurrence, due to the fact they charge me every time. Had the car to the dealer (under warranty) 7 times in the first year to fix: airbag light (4X) and the check engine light (4X). Dealer is HORRIBLE.
Rear brakes are gone at 30,000 miles, I think the O2 sensor is gone, as the check engine light is on AGAIN and the exhaust smells of sulfur.
The car is garbage, glad I leased and get to turn it back in. Only 9 months to go, woooohooo!
My old VW Corrado with 135K miles was more cost effective and reliable than this. AVOID!!!
General Comments:
Seats are very uncomfortable, especially for long trips. Better off replacing seats with plywood, or some straw mats.
Nice looking, but that's about it.
Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? No
