Consumer Description

THERE IS A CONTINUING PROBLEM WITH THE EXHAUST SYSTEM. I HAVE HAD TO HAVE IT REPAIRED 3 TIMES IN THE LAST YEAR AND HALF. THE VOLKSWAGEN DEALERSHIP HAS REPAIRED IT OVER AND OVER AGAIN. I AM GETTING REALLY WORRIED THAT ONE OF THESE DAYS SOMETHING REALLY BAD IS GOING TO HAPPEN,AND I MAY BE INJURED. I WOULD BUY ANOTHER CAR BUT I SIMPLY CAN'T AFFORD IT. AFTER FIXING AN EXHAUST 3 TIMES WHO COULD AFFORD ANYTHING ELSE. I AM A LOYAL VOLKSWAGEN OWNER AND THIS IS THE SECOND VW I HAVE OWNED AND I NEVER HAD A PROBLEM WITH ANY OF THE OTHER CARS. IF THERE IS ANYTHING YOU CAN DO TO HELP IT WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED YOU. *JB
