1 Engine Exhaust System problem

Failure Date: 04/15/2014

Purchased this car new in 2011. Vw fixed the fuel exhaust ports. Engine light came on again and dealer stated that the particulate filter and catalytic converter both needed to be replaced. Also warned that the fuel pump had serious issues. I had one year left to pay this car off, it had 90k miles on it and I had to turn it in. How can they get away with selling a brand new car for $28k to have it crap out with no repercussions like this?.

2 Engine Exhaust System problem

Failure Date: 08/08/2011

Our 2011 Volkswagen Jetta tdi developed an engine oil leak. When we took it to the dealer the service manager refused to let us drive it due to the possibility of an engine fire. Per the service manger the oil leak was causing an atomization of the engine oil that could have reached heated parts of the egine or exhaust and caused an oil fire.
