1994 Volkswagen Jetta GL review from North America
"Great car if you want/are able to tinker..."
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Electrical system shorted and they couldn't find the problem. Impacted the power locks, alarm, radio, and put a drain on the battery.
Fuel pump went, was replaced, and promptly went again.
General comments?
This car was great to drive, but starting was unreliable.
Fuel/maintenance was economical, but the repair costs were so high that it was less expensive for me to trade it in on a new vehicle.
