One problem related to automatic transmission has been reported for the 1998 Volkswagen Cabrio. The most recently reported issues are listed below.
Manufacturer told me that the car can lurch forward, from 1st gear to 3rd gear, causing an accident due to a bad transmission (car has only 46,100 miles, which leads me to believe that the transmission is faulty and defective, and should be warranty, and replaced by the manufacturer, even if the car is 7 years old).
