1999 Volkswagen Jetta TDI review from North America
"Drive it to the lot, paint it yellow, light it on fire, and just walk away!"
General comments?
This car should be parked on the lot painted yellow and lite on fire! By far the biggest money pit ever seen. Drivers wanted they say? More like Mechanics needed!!! Is there anything that is good about this car? Survey says,"No" especially now that Diesel prices have gone up... You think that you have it bad with your vehicle? I have warning lights on my dash board that are for "special features" my car doesn't even have. How can I even fix it if I don't own it??? It has come down to spending over $5000 since it has been off warrenty 4 years ago..that is about $1500 YEARLY on repair "W.T.F over"
