Like this car so far, roomy, smooth and quiet on highway, adequate power to accelerate and merge, great highway mpg. Like the exterior and interior design. Wish it comes with home-link. Interior materials could be better.

Bought the car used with 31k miles and it is still in like new condition. The car rides very smooth and has so much space. I love almost everything about this car, the only thing I would change is to add a little more power. It’s not slow but if it was a little more powerful it would truly be an all around amazing car.

More sporty than an Accord

The seating position, interior fit and finish and overall road performance is sportier than an Accord. Can’t beat warranty

2019 R-Line SE - Remote Stopped Working

I leased a VW Atlas SEL R-Line in February 2019 and so I was looking a low cost, but fairly well equipped “second car” and something that got great gas mileage. I went with the VW Passat SE R-Line (w/technology package) because of the looks and technology package, and I got it for $24K on sale. It looks and drives great for a car in this price range. You can’t go wrong if you want a low cost German engineered car for under 30K with someone tired looks (but I like the more classic design). I was concerned about the little 2.0L turbo but it has plenty of power. In the first week I put 840 miles on it, mostly on the highway. It delivered 35 MPG at an average speed of 70-75 MPH. I drove 422 miles round trip and still had 140 miles of range. The car seems solid and well built. The interior in simple and laid out well. The R-Line comes standard with the Fender sound system – it sounds awesome. If you love music – loud or not, get the R-Line! My only complaint as of 4/20/19: It is still cold here in my part of Southern Oregon and so the remote start feature is a must. After using the remote start for 2 days with no issues, it decided to stop working on the third day. This seems to only be an issue on the 2019 Passat. If you google this issue, it seems like a new problem with only a few complaints so far. When you try the remote start feature, the engine starts and then it turns off after 1 second. I have tried multiple times with the same result. Others are reporting the same issue. Some claim VW is aware of the issue but there is not fix yet, presumably a software fix. The car goes in on 4/29 and so I will update the post thereafter. I would have given a 5 start rating based on value and performance if the remote start would not have failed 3 days into my ownership.

Beware engine failure due to metal shavings

2018 VW passat is a bag full of Lemon garbage! This is the first VW we owned, it will also be the last! $7,000.00 plus repair bill if we have it fixed. We always owned Nissans and never had problems like these. Do not waste your money on a VW!!! It took the dealership over a month to find the issue. Because if the machine can't tell them what the problem is then they are clueless... call themselves mechanics... what a pathetic joke!
