This car, I dont know where to start, I have enjoyed this car! On a scale from one to ten (ten best) I would rate it a 10.1! I have a 2000 GLS TDI 5-spd, when it comes time to trade (if I ever do) it will definitely be another Jetta! What can I say 50MPG cant beat it! It has 17,139 miles and not a single problem!
never again

I bought this car new, thinking I was getting a solid, reliable car. It looks good, handles well, and is fun to drive -- but it has so many problems, overall it has been one big frustration. Something breaks, I put the car on probation (and go look at Toyotas) it runs well for a while and then something breaks again. So far -- vents, latch on the center armrest & cupholders have broken (twice), glove box door fell off. Both driver & passenger windows have fallen & won't go up. Mass airflow meter, brake switch light have been replaced. Brakes locked. Check emissions light is ALWAYS on. And that's for starters. Service at local VW dealers is abysmal.

I was so excited...my first NEW car. No more worrying about breaking down or having my car in the shop - I was buying a VW! NOT! This car stinks so bad - I don't even know where to start - I'm so angry w/ VW I just can't stand it. Gas tank was replaced after having the car for 1 month. Sunroof leaks, mass air-flow sensor had to be replaced, passenger & driver window regulators both broke within a week of eachother. VW Customer Care has reminded me that VW is not obligated to help it's customers after the warranty expires - even if they know the parts they used to build the car are crappy. Please save yourself the trouble - buy ANY other car!
My fingers are crossed

Good so far, but still, a few typical problems: Three window regulator replacements. Chipping and scratching on the inner door handles and sliding cig lighter/coin tray lid. The front spoiler assembly has been dragged off its flimsy plastic attach points. Replacement of the A/C adapter next to the coin tray. The left driver door creaks. Chances are, the mechanic's previous job was fixing shopping carts. The service center waiting room is a kingdom of Woe. The car has been fine so far, but I'm thinking about making a clean break when the lease is up.
