2002 Volkswagen Beetle GLS review from North America
"Not worth the cute looks"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The armrest completely fell apart.
The lock button for the driver door has popped out, and the foot rest on the driver's side just fell off.
General comments?
I think that VW service department will just about accuse you of anything, so that they don't have to take responsibility. It's awful; I hate going there, and heaven forbid that I would fix all the cosmetic problems; they want 500 and up for the smallest of things!
