2004 Volkswagen Jetta Wagon 2.0 115hp from North America
Summary:
My first and last Volkswagen
Faults:
The automatic transmission was replaced at 9400 miles. It had been faulty for months.
General Comments:
Transmission problems, clunking, began in the summer of 2004. Many trips to the dealer to complain, but they said unable to replicate the problem. They finally agreed there was a problem in March, 2004 and said they would order a new transmission. Then they changed their mind and serviced the original. Upon return transmission was worse; slippage, clunk, jump out of gear. Back to dealer who finally installed a new transmission.
Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? No

This is my review. A new transmission was finaaly installed after a year's anguish. One loses faith in a vehicle after such an encounter. We put an end to waiting for the next shoe to drop, bit the bullet, and purchased a new vehicle elsewhere. As I said- "my first and last Volkswagen".
