| 2001 | SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC:FOUNDATION COMPONENTS:DISC:PADS | I OWN A VW JETTA 2001 VR6. I HAVE HAD TO REPLACE MY REAR BRAKE PADS AT ONLY 20,000 MILES TO ME A VERY PREMATURE WEAR PROBLEM. THE DEALER REFUSED TO REPAIR THEM AT NO COST TO ME DUE TO THE PREMATURE WEAR OF THE BRAKE PADS. THE REPAIRS TO THE BRAKE PADS COST ME $200.00. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT HAS COME ON ON THE SAME VW JETTA. TO FIND OUT I KNOW HAVE TO PAY $292.20 TO HAVE THE MAF SENSOR REPLACED ON A CAR THAT HAS ONLY 22,500 MILES. I AM TRYING TO SEEK REIMBURSEMENT FROM VW OF AMERICA FOR THESE EXPENSES. IN ADDITION THIS YEAR I ALSO HAD TO PAY $300.00 TO HAVE THE PASSENGER DOOR LATCH REPAIRED AS THE SPRING BROKE THAT ALLOWED ME TO OPEN THE DOOR WITH THE DOOR HANDLE. REGARDLESS, MY CAR IS KEPT IN PRISTINE CONDITION, AND IN NO WAY SHOULD I BE INCURRING THESE TYPE OF REPAIRS ON A VEHICLE THAT HAS ONLY 20K MILES ON THE ODOMETER. PLEASE HELP ME. *AK |
