Consumer Description

I BOUGHT A PREVIOUSLY OWNED VW JETTA GLS WITH 25,000 MI ON SEPTEMBER 22, 2003. TWO WEEKS LATER, THE OIL LIGHT CAME ON BRIEFLY AS I WAS PARKING AT HOME. I CHECKED THE DIPSTICK AND IT WAS DRY. I CALLED THE DEALER AND IT WAS TOWED AND CHECKED AND A FLUORESCENT PROBE WAS PUT IN AND I WAS TOLD THERE WERE TWO QUARTS OF OIL REMAINING. WHERE DID THE OIL GO? MY CAR IS SCHEDULED TO GO IN FOR A CHECK ON THIS PROBLEM THIS WEEK. THERE WAS NO OIL ON THE GROUND AND THE SERVICE TECH SAID THEY HAD A PROBLEM LIKE THIS ONCE BEFORE. HAS THIS PROBLEM EVER BEEN ADDRESSED BY OTHER CONSUMERS? THANK YOU. *AK
