2002 Volkswagen Passat GLX 4 MOTION review from North America

Well I bought the car used and it had a couple of things that did not work.

Cruise control did not work.

Memory seats did not work.

Both things were fixed by the dealer with no questions asked.

The car is awesome. It's the second German car that I have owned, and for sure will not be the last one. However I would never buy a German car without having a trust worthy mechanic by my side. I have found that many dealers that sell German cars, have no idea on how to fix a German car. I have found out from friends and family members that most of the problems that German cars have are because the car has been poorly serviced(by the dealer). But if you find a trust worthy mechanic, you will always buy a German car.

The 4 motion on my car is awesome in any kind of weather. It gives me extra grip in snow and rain, and when dry it takes the curves like nothing else.

The 2.8 liter V6 is not a bad engine, but I wish they would have made it a little bit more powerful, cause it only has 190 hp, but VW has fixed that problem with the new Passat.

Since it’s the GLX model, it has everything other than a sat nav.

As I said, get a good mechanic and avoid the dealers; they charge you way too much and they just makes things worst. I have been taking my car to my expert German car mechanic, and nothing has gone wrong with the car.
