2002 Volkswagen Jetta review from North America
"A high performance nightmare"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
First both the driver-side and passenger-side front windows broke. While it was raining.
Then the windshield-washer tank sensor broke. Indicator light remained on regardless of the washer-fluid level.
Now the notorious coils have gone. Leaving me with a loaner Chevy Lumina from the dealership for an uncertain amount of.
General comments?
At first I was excited about the power and all the features of this car.
Now I'm missing my Jeep and wish I had never traded it in.
