2005 Volkswagen Jetta GLS 1.9 tdi from North America
Summary:
I love it, for what I paid for it I couldn't be happier
Faults:
Nothing major has gone wrong minus when taken in to the dealership they adjusted my fuel gauge. I had to take it back in to readjust it.
General Comments:
I find the car fun to drive and it corners well.
During the winter with all the construction and ice where I live the car handled very well.
The heated seats are nice and the interior is comfortable to me.
Not super comfy for people in the backseat though (especially taller/heavier set people)
LOVE the milage. Diesel is cheaper than gas here so for me it's a great deal.
Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? Yes

That is dealer BS. Tempered safety glass can shatter due to defects at anytime. A scratch made during manufacture or assembly can lead to the glass snapping later down the road (no pun intended). I have seen side windows shatter when doors were shut under normal force. Call VW corporate and complain.
