I love my black jetta GLS but there are some problems that the dealer will not fix. For example, there are buzzing noises coming from the windows or speakers and various places inside the car. It is a beautiful car and after 13,000 miles I haven't had too many problems but the dealership still can't figure out those buzzing noises.

I Love my VW Jetta- for some reason mine has not had any problems! The car has over a 100,000 miles now and is still running like a champ! Great car, affordable, and very cute!

I love my new car! I am so addicted to this car its unbelievable. I love pulling up to a stop light and seeing all those Japanese car (used to have a Honda) rev thier engines. I always wave to them in my rear view mirror as they are eating my dust. Mods are cheap and easy, mostly bolt ons.

sell @ 90000 miles

Our Jetta was great until it reached 90,000 miles. The first thing that happened was the check engine light came on. After unsuccessful 3 tries by VW to correct the problem (average $300 repair each time) the light remained on. At 92,000 the generator went out (cost $850). You would have thought it was made of gold or something. That depleted my savings of which I was going to replace the timing belt/water pump (recommended @ 100k) @ $900 and the front stablizer mounts @$250, but instead I sold it. It was a great vehicle until 90k when it began to eat us out of house and home.
