2004 Volkswagen Jetta GLS review from North America
"Fun and great car to drive"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Had a sensor light come on.. got it fixed it was faulty. and trunk was very heavy had to get them replaced. only two things that have happened to the car in the two years I have owned it.
General comments?
I really loved the feature that allows you to roll down your windows with the key in the door lock until every Volkswagen in my neighbourhood got broken into in 1 night. It is a great feature, but it is very easy for car thieves to break into. all they do is stick something in the door lock and your windows roll down and the alarm disengages, and the door unlocks. this happened to me in the middle of winter, at least the person was kind enough to do up my window after!!! called in to complain and they did nothing for me. I did not replace the lock instead I put a cap on.. I know have no door locks on the car. I figure this will permanently solve this problem instead of just replacing the lock and letting it get broken into again.
