2002 Volkswagen Jetta Wagon review from North America

Burns oil (up to 3 quarts in 2000 miles)

Leaking driver door.

Fabric on doors came off.

Headlight burns out every few months.

Tail light burns out every few months.

Brake light burns out every few months (the last time lasted two weeks! "Nothing wrong with the car" they say.)

Dealership said that yes I could get a 6 disc changer in my car. Turns out no I can't and if I do the cars computer will die. Nice.

More small problems... too many to list.

Among other problems with the Jetta Wagon I purchased my main complaint is that it burns through oil at a fast rate...2-3 quarts every 2500 miles. This was said to be normal by the dealership, even though service is required by the dealership every 5000 miles! I took it to the dealership this morning because it was nearly empty and its only been 2045 miles since my last oil change. Of course they that this was normal and I asked if this was normal, then should I just drive without any oil for the next 3000 miles? They said "well, no. I guess not". Instead of trying to find out whats wrong with the car they're doing an oil test to know how much oil I've gone through.

I already know how much I've gone through, all of it!

I really dislike Volkswagen. I will never even step on to their dealership again.
