| 1997 | POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION | I BOUGHT THE 97 JETTA USED IN OCT. 1999. I AM THE SECOND OWNER. THEN IN AUGUST OF THIS YEAR THE TRANSMISSION STARTED TO FAIL AND IT TURNED OUT THAT I NEEDED A NEW TRANSMISSION. I FEEL THAT THE CAR IS TOO NEW AND HAS FEW TOO MANY MILES FOR THIS TO OCCUR. I HAVE TRIED TO GET VOLKSWAGEN TO HELP ME OUT BUT THEY REFUSED BECAUSE THE WARRANTY IS EXPIRED. I THINK THE WARRANTY SHOULD HAVE NOTHING TO DO WITH IT. I HAVE SEEN OTHER PEOPLE NOW WHO HAVE HAD THE SAME TYPE OF PROBLEMS WITH THEIR VEHICLES. THIS LEADS ME TO BELIEVE THAT IF THERE ARE SEVERAL OWNERS OUT THERE WITH TRANSMISSION PROBLEMS THEN THE MANUFACTURER SHOULD HAVE RECALLED THE CAR AND FIXED IT FREE OF CHARGE. THANK YOU, CHRISTA LEWIS MR |
| 2014 | ENGINE | MORE THAN 10 TIME FOR THE PAST 4 MONTHS, CAR INTERMITTENTLY STALLED AT STOP SIGNS, TRAFFIC LIGHTS, OR EZPASS TUNNEL. IT HAPPENED WHEN THE CAR IS EITHER AT A COMPLETE STOP OR AT A VERY LOW SPEED. ONE TIME IT SUDDENLY SHUT DOWN ON A HIGHWAY DURING TRAFFIC JAM. TOOK TO DEALER FOR HALF DAY IN OCTOBER BUT WAS NOT ABLE TO IDENTIFY WHY AND DID NOTHING TO FIX. *LN |
