2005 Volkswagen Jetta review from North America
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I love my Jetta, in 5 months I have put 11000 miles on my car. Last week the O2 sensor went out and caused the engine light to come on. I called North Scottsdale VW they had me bring it in right away. They gave me a Ford Taurus for a loaner...yuk... they called me back the next day and informed me there was a recall on the fuel sensor as well and wanted to know since they already had the car could they go ahead and replace it...
I said sure if you trade me out of the Ford and into a VW loaner and they did.
Very hard to go from a TDI to a standard car.
General comments?
This is my first VW, but it won't be my last.
