2001 Volkswagen Cabrio GLX review from North America
"Unreliable Transportation"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The check engine light illuminates for no reason.
The interior is poorly made and is falling apart.
The passenger side rear bearing needs to be replaced at 19,500 miles.
General comments?
Volkswagen looks like a nice car.
However, the warranty is worthless.
