2000 Volkswagen Jetta GLX review from North America
"I hope I never have to give it up!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Check Engine light has been coming on lately. It says that it has to do with the Emissions.
Nothing else has happened since I've had the car.
General comments?
This car is amazing! I really love it! Yes it's not dependable in the sense that certain things commonly break. However my Jetta always starts, never dies, and all the main important things always work. As well a lot of the fun bells and whistles work too.
Car is super comfy with gorgeous black leather interior, that still looks brand new!
Drives amazingly! I live in the mountains and going up the mountain I just push the petal and I am flying. It's such a smooth ride that you don't even realize that you're going so fast. My old car would lose speed going up the mountain. Now I have to be careful to not go too fast.
I can't wait to take a road trip with this car! I really love this car!
I still haven't figured out how to turn on the Air Conditioning yet. It's the new electronic climate control system, and there seems to not be a specific AC button. Still looking for it!
The trunk is huge! My husband is a musician and we fit guitars, drums, speakers, amps, etc in there with no problem!
The sound system is awesome! I like to turn up the radio really loud. It sounds great!
Awesome car! I would highly recommend it! I am blessed to have a Jetta!!
