Frame And Members Problems of Volkswagen Jetta

While driving a 2003 Volkswagen Jetta with approx 66,000 miles the motor mount bolts broke off and the engine fell to the ground. Damages were to the suspension of the car and no one suffered injuries. The speed at the time of the incident was approximately 40 miles. No signs that the motor mounts or assembly bolts were bad or loose. The car is at the dealer because they said that the motor mounts were covered under the warranty but the bolts are not. They want us to pay $2,200. 00 for the repairs and the warranty cover other parts. I told them that the bolts are part of the motor mounts and they fail to perform as expected. In addition the car is been maintained by the same Volkswagen dealer since we purchased the car 2 years ago. Please advise since this could have been a serious accident if I was driving on a highway as I usually do. I think the manufacturer should fix my car and inspect all Volkswagen's for any defective motor mount bolts. Thank-you.

The consumer has had on going problems with the mass air flow sensor continually failing. The sensor has been replaced three times. Each time the sensor failed the vehicle lost power. The consumer received a letter from vw of America which extended the warranty of the sensor to 7 years or 70000 miles on Jetta's from 1999 to 2001. The consumer feels this is an improper solution to the problem. The front seat frames continued to break. Vw have replaced them on the consumers vehicle 5-6 times under warranty.
