2002 Volkswagen Jetta review from North America
"Runs very nicely, but fragile and many problems for 6 years old"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
R side passenger window just fell into the door! I understand that there is a recall for this problem... I am the 2nd owner, but first owner didn't have window problems. PLEASE ANSWER THIS QUESTION: Does anyone know if I can go to the dealer and have this fixed under recall? Thanks!
General comments?
Generally good, although many small recurring problems.
Spring fell out under passenger seat.
Punctured oil pan (on a rock in dirt road) caused death of turbo unit (VERY expensive)...
This car rides far too low, and feels too fragile for normal use.
