Consumer Description

MY 2003 PASSAT, WITH 10K MILES, HAS BEEN IN THE SHOP FOR 22 DAYS NOW AND THEY DON'T KNOW WHAT'S WRONG WITH IT. THIS IS THE FOURTH TRIP IN FOR THE SAME THING. THE BATTERY GOES DEAD EVERY NIGHT. ACCORDING TO UTAH LEMON LAW I SHOULD BE ENTITLED TO ARBITRATE, BUT VW WILL NOT DISCUSS THIS OPTION. *NLM
