1998 Volkswagen Jetta Wolfsburg review from North America
"Bottomless money pit"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Left rear window doesn't work.
Right rear window broke and would not come back up. Paid $300 to have it fixed.
Poor on gas.
Manifold gasket broke - $250.
Engine light came on - Insufficient Vacuum - $400 fix.
General comments?
I will never buy another VW so long as I live.
The customer service is horrible and the labor is VERY expensive.
