Used 2016 Volkswagen Passat S PZEV 4dr Sedan (1.8L 4cyl Turbo 6A) Consumer Reviews

love my passat and support vw!

i love Passat from my first look at this car (i also test drove and like subaru legacy ), which is obviously very nice and very well built in every detail. design is both classical, detailed and appropriate. the ride is very comfortable and quiet. engine is enough for me or even pretty strong if you press pedal hard. very roomy for second row guests. i got Passat at a great price partly because of recent diesal scandal. although i love it, i was hesitant due to some bad comments. but once i get it, i fell in love it, and dis not have any issues so far. i can't comment on long term reliability, but the initial quality, original parts, assembly are in high quality and flawless. it is way way better than my toyota cars in terms of premium feeling and detailed consideration. safety is very good and actually my top reason to pick this car. mine passat is just the base model, but are still well equipped. compared to Passat, my toyotas (rav4, matrix) is much simpler, but has been proved to be super reliable. vw now has problems, but i think a company that builds such a nice, quality car (especially on the fundamental side which demonstrate its responsibility and professionalism), deserve my love and support. if other vw models are similarly competitive on pricing as my Passat, i may only buy vw in the future. feb2019 update: the car is our family's major people mover, due to its smaller size and more gas economy. we put nearly 53,000 miles on it for 3 years, and the car still runs strong and no mechanical issues at all. Still in love. Only minor problem is the backup camera failed to be launched when backup sometimes, but the problem went away next time.

Only minor issues. Otherwise excellent car

A couple of points which are rather disappointing are: (1) Brakes developed squeaking noise around 20k miles and remained. The dealer service tech said that it is normal even though brakes wear is below normal. The rattling noise is above normal (compared to Toyota Camry which I previously owned). The low tire pressure light has stayed lit, even though the tires have normal pressure. (2) The clock slows down by about 3 minutes in 2 months. (3) The rearview camera sometimes fails to show when engaging the reverse gear

Best roomiest sedan I have ever owned

I have driven this car from new. Has almost 100,000 miles on the car and only major work I have done to it is change the front brakes and rotors this week. Excellent car. Some of the best value for the money! Hands down.

Good car!!
