1993 Volkswagen Passat vr6 review from North America
"I think the V.W. would have done better"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Paint started to wear out.
Coolant hose burst.
Ac compressor went out costing S1,400.
Temperature guage does not work.
Seats heater doesn't work.
Ac fan broke.
Ac switch panel broke.
It came with a wrong spare tire.
Sun roof broke.
Rear view mirror fell during adjustment.
Sometimes the car just turns off while driving.
General comments?
I think the car is not a good model, It's easy to handle and fast, but it's not a very strong car.
