Stereo blew the second week that I had it. Fixed, told "fuse issue". Fuse issue has happened twice.
Windows have leaked and complained each time to Dealer and Volkswagen. Door seals replaced on all doors to correct problem. Never did. Now water damage and mold growing from leaks.
Driver door handle and console between front seats is peeling away. Known issue with these cars. Bubbles up and cracks in heat.
Physical factory defect on exterior of car at front passenger door.
Drivers side door has fallen from hinges and will not close or seal correctly.
Oxygen coils have gone bad twice. Now a recall, yet the part is the same and will happen again, just a matter of time.
Passenger window fell into the door of the car. Extended warranty, but replaced with exact same part. Will happen again.
This car is the worst car that I have ever owned. Will never recommend or purchase another.
Do not buy if you are needing reliable or quality transportation.
I have had the same problem with my Jetta 2005 GL for the windows. Water started to leak through all four of my windows while I was driving through the rain one night. I took the car into the VW dealership and they didn't believe me-but they took my car in anyways to the body shop and adjusted all the doors. They adjusted all the doors so tight that I couldn't close them, and when I opened them they would pop out. Eventually it became so bad that I was driving down the highway twice and my driver's side door popped open. I took it back again to the dealership and they still haven't fixed it-I constantly hear a whistling sound from my driver's side window. Then my driver's side window button stopped working, so I took it in again and they still haven't fixed it. Now whenever I have the a/c on and I turn the car off it makes this humming sound. So between my whistling window and my humming a/c this is the most melodious car I have ever had.
