| 1999 | OTHER | THIS ENTIRE SCENARIO IS UNACCEPTABLE FOR A CAR, I HAD HOPED TO KEEP, AS I AM TOLD THAT VW'S CAN WELL NEAR TO THE 200,000 MILES PLUS. I AM TOLD THEY ARE RELIABLE AND BEING ON THE ROAD MYSELF, THAT HAD BEEN A POINT OF COMFORT WHEN I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE. BEING OF LIMITED INCOME CAPACITY, I THOUGHT I MADE A WISE INVESTMENT TO CARRY ME FOR MANY YEARS WITHOUT A CAR PAYMENT. I AM SCARED TO DEATH NOW THAT SOMETHING DRASTIC COULD HAPPEN BECAUSE OF THIS SITUATION, BE IT A BREAK DOWN ON A LATE EVENING, DARK STRETCH OF ROAD OR GREATER FURTHER DAMAGE TO THE VEHICLE AS WELL AS ME PERSONALLY. MR. WITTER, THIS IS A MAJOR PROBLEM I WANT TO BELIEVE YOU ARE NOT AWARE OF, BECAUSE A CEO OF A COMPANY WHO PURPORTS SERVICE AND A QUALITY PRODUCT WOULD INVESTIGATE AND RESOLVE SUCH A LARGE ISSUE, IN ALL CASES, BUT MOST ESPECIALLY IN WARRANTY CASES. THERE NEEDS TO BE A MAJOR RECALL OR SOMEONE WILL BE INJURED OR KILLED IN AN ENGINE FAILURE INCIDENT. YOU MAY END UP FINDING YOURSELVES IN A CLASS ACTION SUIT. I BELIEVE PROACTIVE IS MORE POSITIVE THAN REACTIVE COURSE OF ACTION. I LOOK FORWARD TO A POSITIVE RESPONSE FROM YOU INDICATING THAT YOU WILL HAVE DAY APOLLO VW REMEDY MY ISSUE IN THE SAME MANNER THE CALIFORNIA DEALER SATISFIED MY SISTER'S SAME DEFECT. TO DATE 3/2007 THEY CONTINUE THE STANCE THIS IS NORMAL AND REFUSE TO SERVICE MY VEHICLE FOR ANY FUTURE ISSUE. *JB |
