Um, no. Just no. - 2012 Volkswagen Jetta
By ZH - August 24 - 12:34 pmI wanted to own a European car. Well that was a huge mistake and I only had the car for a little over a year. The car was too cramped and it was just a boring car all around. Too many electrical problems. I had to constantly change the headlights and rewire fuses. The car was crappy in the snow and rain. I was under the impression that the car was suppose to get decent gas mileage, but it was crap compared to my Supra. If people want a reliable car, do NOT get European cars. Stick to the Japanese cars for reliability, comfort, technology, and safety.

This car is a lemon. STAY AWAY!! - 2012 Volkswagen Jetta
By MS125 - April 28 - 8:07 pmVW should be ashamed of their refusal to acknowledge the intercooler problem on this car. After I passed 65k miles, moisture got inside during cold weather, and it cracked, resulting in a pretty useless engine. VW said its not covered by warranty, but clearly, given the number of people whove experienced the same issue, its obviously a design flaw. Stay away!!!
