2002 Volkswagen Jetta GLS review from North America
"Makings of a dream car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
My engine coil started to go bad at 8900 miles; called up the nearest service station and had me in the next day. They were friendly, and honest, and when they told me the part was back-ordered, but they already had a free rental car ready for me.
General comments?
A side from the engine coil, this car has been wonderful; as has the company.
Awesome handling, pick up, braking, features, and design.
The Titronic feature, which allow manual control of an automatic car, is one that should not be overlooked. Great feature that helps a lot in the rain, and snow; as does the ASR.
