2003 Volkswagen Jetta GLS review from North America

WELL...

I thought this car was absolutely wonderful. Which it was. Then My friend told me wait until you have reached 30,000 miles. I blew it off and was like no volkswagens are reputable cars.. (for being crap).

All well until:

20,000 - battery died.. No reason. My dealership says it's standard. (oh OK standard.. that should've been in the contract)

25,000 - Radio stopped working... No reason. Of course dealership says its standard. (well yet another amendment to that contract.)

25,000 - brake lights not working... and yes folks this is standard.

26,000 - 40,000 - at least 4 times a year my rear lights have to get replaced. But don't worry yet another standard failure for VW's.

41,000 - My car dies while I drive it. It shuts off and turns on at will when I drive. I've had a few close calls with death. My dealership says they have no idea and think I'm fabricating the story.

42,000 - My cars power system shuts off and turns on while I drink. My transmission will soon begin getting affected by this. I've been in almost 6 fatal accidents because of this problem.

Well here I am..I've almost had a few fatal accidents on the highway due to this POS. I called my dealership yesterday and warned them that if I, or my family are injured due to this problem I will slap VW of North America, VW worldwide, Gensinger motors of Clifton nj (never buy a car from them. They suck) and all managers involved in my cars mechanical inspection with the biggest law suit possible. I'm sick of these huge corporation making a mockary of consumers, not only a mockary, but this is a fatal situation.

If I had two broken legs and the only car I could buy was a VW I would much rather crawl.
