Structure problem #1

My 2003 vw Gti leaks and has now developed serious mold that we haven't been able to get rid of on our own because the car keeps taking on water every time it rains. I refuse to pay thousands for a major design flaw and I can't always park it under cover. Apparently these leaks are not covered under the warranty. I have a serious mold allergy and can not drive the car for long periods of time.

Door problem #2

I had a 2002 Volkswagen jetta before this with the same problem. The doors make rattle after a couple thousand miles. I took my jetta in 20 times and no fix. Got tired of it and bought an 03 Gti and now I have the same problem. Even if I take everything out of the door holder, I still here a noise coming from the door.

Body problem #3

My vw Gti 2003 20th anniversary modle has a poping noise coming from the doors every time I hit a bump in the road or go up a drive way. The dealer said that vw knows about the problem but dosent have a fix for it yeat. This noise is driving me crazy!!!!!! there is nothing worse than rattle or poping noise in a brand new car. Any help with this mater would be helpful.
