2003 Volkswagen Jetta review from North America
"Overpriced for sub-par quality and service"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Radio/tape/cd went bad @ 50,120 miles.
Dealer refused to honor radio replacement or EC Plug under 50,000 mile warranty. Zero tolerance obviously.
EC Plug & catalytic converter bad @ 50,000.
Shifter locked @ 45,000, had to replace.
General comments?
Loved the way the car handled and drove on the highway.
Using cup holder prohibits operation of radio.
