Suspiciously good mpg

2023 Volkswagen Jetta Sport 4dr Sedan (1.5L 4cyl Turbo 6M)

I love this car. Can get it up to 50mpg on the highway with the ac running. The lane keeping assist and acc are handy on long highway trips. The XDS from the gti is fun on the sport. The interior is clean, sharp, driver focused and you can get it with a manual! My few dislikes are no auto ac, and the suspension is a bit rough off-road.

This car is wonderful in many ways. It is petty around town and get's great gas mileage. I once got 50mpg on the way home from work and regularly get over 40mpg. It is commanding on the highway and petty around the city. The cup holders are a little small, but otherwise it is hard to beat.

I have had TWO 2021 jettas, the first one not even for 10k miles. It stopped driving and the fuel modules went out three times, then finally the engine ran out of oil while I was driving and ceased up for good. My second one which was a lemon replacement is starting to follow the pattern of the problems my first one had. Bad engine control module when it only had 500 miles on it. The SOS communication module is bad, and just today the engine light came on and cruise control stopped working. I don’t usually write reviews, but I’m astonished on how bad of a car the 2021 Jetta is. Avoid this year of the model at all costs.

I absolutely LOVE my car. It has a luxury, yet practical feel for an affordable price. The warranty is amazing. I love the peace of mind. The ambient lighting, machined rims and driving modes are some of my favorite features! The Jetta has been a staple in the Volkswagen brand for decades. I will always be a huge fan! Go Jetta! Betta Getta Jetta!!!

2022 Volkswagen Jetta S 4dr Sedan (1.5L 4cyl Turbo 8A)

First I want to say when we bought this car in 2022 there weren't many options available. At the dealer we bought this from it was the only one in stock and we needed to be out of our lease at the time. We bought the one and only on the lot which was the base Jetta S. I'll start with the good, this will be quick. I get really good gas mileage, upper 30's on average and can get upper 40's on the highways, there is plenty of power to get going and to pass slower drivers. Now to the bad. The tires are crap, it has power to move but the tires slip all the time, even on slower take offs they will spin. Wet roads? Be careful as the stock tires have no traction in the rain. The seats are uncomfortable for longer trips, the center console comes out too far into my right leg as I'm driving and is just annoying, the base radio is trash like old car kinda trash not the typical decent stock radios in most cars these days. It really sounds horrible. The rear brake pads wore out at only 24k miles which I have never seen in my 43 years of driving. My last car stock brakes lasted to well over 60k miles and I downshift going down hills to help my brake life. VW won't warranty them and I wasn't about to spend over $900 for them to replace the pads and the rotors so I did the job myself in my driveway.. I am also getting random electrical issues which of course random issues are hard to diagnose, if the issues don't happen when the car is at the dealer then you're out of luck. There is a nice hum going on driving down the road, I thought it may be a wheel bearing but the dealers assures me it's not and is suspecting the noise is coming from a tire or tires. I've never heard a noise like this from a tire either but I guess it could be and would be another negative to the already bad tires so that means spending more money for this low milage car. I regret buying this car and want to get something else. I will never buy a VW again.
