| 1999 | SEAT BELTS:FRONT:RETRACTOR | THE PROBLEM IS THAT THE CENTER REAR SEATBELT RETRACTS AND WILL NOT COME OUT AGAIN. THE FIRST TIME THIS HAPPENED, A DEALER (NOT THE PURCHASE DEALER) WAS ABLE TO REPAIR IT, BUT IT FAILED AGAIN, AND WAS REPLACED. NOW, A YEAR LATER IT FAILED YET AGAIN. I HAVE THREE CHILDREN, AND CANNOT DRIVE WITH THEM IN THE BACKSEAT (ONE IS 13, SO HE CAN RIDE IN FRONT), BUT IT IS A REAL AND RECURRING PROBLEM - NOW THE CAR IS OUT OF WARRANTY, AND IT IS A SLOW AND EXPENSIVE PROCESS TO HAVE THIS SAME PART REPLACED REPEATEDLY. THERE CLEARLY IS A MANUFACTURING DEFECT HERE. THANKS - JACOB HELLER (631-689-8243) [email protected] |
| 2011 | ENGINE | I WAS ENTERING AN INTERSECTION AT 10MPH AND HALFWAY INTO THE INTERSECTION, MY CAR STALLED AND STOPPED. IT SLOWLY BUMPED THE CAR IN MY REAR. NO INJURY OR DAMAGE NOTED. I PUT THE CAR IN PARK, TURNED OFF THE CAR AND RESTARTED IT AND DROP IT TO THE NEAREST PARKING LOT. THIS IS A VW GOLF TDI 2011! *TR |
