2002 Volkswagen Passat GLX 4motion review from North America
"Great Car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Stereo went out at 8,000 miles. Was replaced with no questions asked.
General comments?
This car is VERY fast. Too bad the maximum speed limit on cars is governed in America. The car handles extremely well. As with ALL cars, I would recommend buying a six cylinder. A 4 cylinder is more apt to incur problems due to the strain put on the engine.
