Consumer Description

JETTA 1.8 T 2001 HAS BEEN IN THE SHOP NOW AT LEAST SIX TIMES TO BE FIXED. EVEN THOUGH COILS WERE REPLACED, THE CAR CONTINUES TO SHUTTER AND STALL AT LEAST THREE DAYS A WEEK. THE DEALER ASKED FOR ONE MORE CHANCE TO FIX THE VEHICLE -- THEY FAILED AND NOW ARE SAYING I MUST BRING THE CAR IN TO "PROVE" THE PROBLEM. THE PROBLEM OCCURS ABOUT 70% OF THE TIME THOUGH SO MAY NOT DISPLAY SUCH A PROBLEM WHEN AND IF I DO BRING IT IN AGAIN. VW SHOULD BE PROFESSIONAL AND DEAL WITH THIS HUGE NATIONAL PROBLEM BETTER -- THEY EXPECT CONSUMERS TO BELIEVE THAT THEY WOULD SPEND WEEKS AND LOANER CARS TO FIX A PROBLEM THEY NEVER HAVE REALLY EXPERIENCED. YOUR CONSUMER IS NOT STUPID VW! THOUSANDS OF OWNERS WILL NOT BACK DOWN OR HO AWAY. I INTEND TO FILE A LEMON LAW COMPLAINT. *NLM
