1999 Volkswagen Jetta GLS review from North America
"It is going to die"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I am sixteen and I bought a 1999.5 new Jetta in 2005. I have had nothing but problems with it.
My keyless entry quit
The radio quit.
And lots of other things.
Cruise control kicks on when I turn the key on before I turn it to ignition, and it floors it after many attempts to start it. It quit, and now I do not know what to do.
General comments?
Peace of crap.
I hate it.
Bad car. DO NOT BUY ONE.
