1 Power Train problem

Failure Date: 03/13/2013

We bought the car everything was fine. Two weeks later the engine light comes on and now the transmission takes off in second gear and will not shift till gets up to 40 mph. After checking on line it seems Volkswagen is having issues with the transmissions and doing anything about it.

2 Power Train problem

Failure Date: 08/03/2010

2000 new Beetle with its second transmission. I thought these were reliable cars that would be reliable for back and forth to work. . I looks at the forums and find im one of the thousands that has had the same issue. Is this acceptable?.
