I purchased a new Volkswagen Jetta tdi in 2012. I am unable to adjust the left outside mirror so that it does not have a blind spot. That blind spot allows a car slowly passing in the left lane to be out of view of the inside mirror but not yet in view of the left outside mirror! the pillar separating the two doors on the driver side is located so that a driver cannot see a car in the described blind spot.

Debris from gaskets in air ventilation system exits the air vents and hits the occupants. The debris, on occasion, hit the driver in the eye causing temporary loss of vision. The debris flying out into the face of the driver or other vehicle occupant is always a distraction to driver attention to driving even when direct contact with the eye(s) does not occur.

I recently purchased a used, low mileage 2006 vw Jetta and soon after I noticed the headliner began to bubble, sag, and tear away from the c-pillars I knew that this was not normal for a four-year-old car and that this could quickly turn into a safety hazard if left ignored. Should the headliner continue to bubble and sag into the driver's line of sight this could become a serious motor vehicle hazard. I began to read around online and discovered, to my shock, news about the commonality of this issue to hundreds of owners. So, surely Volkswagen is already aware that this is a mass isâ­sue and would certainly want to take action to correct it, right? I am writing because I genuinely love this car, but feel that there is a serious motor vehicle defect within the headliner assembly, glue or the way the fabric liner was cut, possibly too short. I want to get my headliner repaired, but honestly do not feel that I should be fully responsible for low quality craftsmanship put into the headliner of a four year old vehicle. I'd like for Volkswagen to petition to have this item recalled citing the potential safe hazards it can cause due to loss of sight while driving. Also, I'd like for you to contact me in order to make the proper arrangements to have mine replaced. I am also sending this letter to Volkswagens consumer complaints department, consumer affairs, and the national highway traffic safety administration for their review. The consumer stated within one week of owning the vehicle, he noticed a vibration in the steering wheel. It was determined the rotors needed to be replaced. Soon after, the radio and window buttons began to peel as if they had been sitting out in heat. Updated ivoq 12/22/jb the consumer also stated the wiring in the driver's side door was defective. The exterior side mirror turn signals did not function properly. The wiring harness inside the boot of the driver's door showed signs of wear. The consumer stated 2 out of the 11 wires were broken, including the ground wire. Updated 06/07/11.

2003 vw Jetta: digital display would shut off when key was removed from ignition. Unable to lock vehicle doors with remote. Vehicle had to be restarted for digital panel to appear (re-set) and for door to lock with remote. Engine would also shut off while at a stop light and while driving on freeway. Possibility to cause a crash. All digital panels still illuminated, key would be locked in ingnition, un-able to turn or be removed until car placed back in park and hand brake pulled up. Issues occured bi-weekly, weekly, and now daily. Vehicle brought to dealership. Was told that ignition switch failed and needed to be replaced. Would have been covered under warranty (warrant just expired last month). After trying to diagnose problem prior to bringing to dealership, I've found on several forums that this is not a new issue/repair for vw customers with the same make and model. Many customers have had similar complaints/experiences, all of which were taken in for repair after warranty expired. Vehicle is only 7 years old and is at approximately 85,000 miles. This vehicle has also had service for the following recalls: catalytic converter, failed ignition coils, failed rear window/door locks. This car is a lemon!.

The contact owns a 2003 Volkswagen Jetta. The contact stated that the front passenger side window fell into the door. The vehicle had not been inspected or repaired. The contact called the manufacturer who offered no assistance. The failure mileage was approximately 140,000.

The drivers side door electrical system does not work. The locks, windows, mirrors, trunk latch, gas tank latch, mirror defroster et al. In speaking the vw service reps they knew right away that the issue was a broken harness. They indicated it had failed in many other vehicles. However, in speaking with vw customer care they are not willing to accept responsibility for the known issue. I will let the safety experts determine the severity of this design failure but the doors can not be locked or unlocked, the door ajar light remains on and dings all the time, the interior lights are on night and day making visibility at night difficult and last but not least the windows cannot be put down. Please address this as vw does not appear willing and this issue is everywhere with this model year and make. Thanks!.

Vw window fell off track in to bottom of the door.

Drivers side window repeatedly falls into door despite numerous repairs.

Window regulator going bad. Researched your site and found numerous complaints about this issue. Just purchased car used and was unaware of problem and of course it is too late for any extended warranties. This problem should be reconciled regardless of timeframe.

2001 vw Jetta-- window regulator replacement. Vw will only replace windows with proven defect(windows that have already fallen down). I live in mn and I don't want to chance that my windoe will fall down in the middle of winter. I asked vw to replace all window regulators, and they refused.

Driver side front and rear window and passenger side front and rear window leak water.

The 2007 Jetta 2. 5 has a front air vent which has been designed poorly and makes a rattling sound. The fixed it several times and it still make sounds and several of my friends have the same issue with their Jetta.

Before I picked up the car- it needed a new fuel tank because the dealer was unable to put gas into the car. At 60,000 miles the crank shaft broke off and a new engine was installed. My driver side window fell down. Two plastic things keep falling out of the sunroof and I put them back up. Numerous oxygen sensors have been changed but my check engine light remains on. Finally, at 107,000 miles my transmission went out and vw refuses to help with any of the cost because it is out of the warranty.
