2001 Volkswagen Beetle GL review from North America
"Very concerned about dependability"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Window regulators both broke.
I replaced 1, broke in a week.
Both windows duct taped up now.
Not sure if I can trust dealer.
6 Disk CD bad, replaced w/indash
Armrest broke.
Gas door lock broke.
Milkshake looking oil at filler.
Interior has funny smell since new.
General comments?
My wife has loved the car until now.
Blue with black leather, nice looking.
No longer happy. : (
