Failure of breather valve and mass air flow sensor, repaired by private mechanic that got a kit to replace poorly designed unit wich has a dealer buy back # 0444294 , Volkswagen said there was no such kit to their knowledge and no recall I have had many problems with this car and have recieved no aid from Volkswagen.

2 Engine Exhaust System problem

Failure Date: 06/14/1999

The "Volkswagen certified" dealership was absolutely horrible. All the listed problems I brought it back to them repeatedly, and it would normally take 3-5 visits for the item to get fixed. I didn't even get to list all the problems with the speaker panel, clutch, and fenders getting flexed. I will never own another Volkswagen, or go to the dealership ever again.
