Consumer Description

THE CLUTCH ON MY 03' VW JETTA HAS BEEN FAILING SINCE DAY ONE , I NOW HAVE 42,000 KMS. WHEN I BOUGHT THE CAR. REVERSE, SECOND GEAR AND THIRD GEAR ALL HAVE PROBLEMS. THIS PROBLEM HAS BEEN GOING ON WITH EVERY PERSON WITH A MANUAL JETTA, ESPECIALLY A 1.8T. I THINK VWOA SHOULD RECALL THE CLUTCH AND TRANSMISSION AND CORRECT THIS PROBLEM. WE SPEND HARD EARNED MONEY ON OUR CARS AND DO NOT DESERVE A PROBLEM LIKE THIS ON BRAND NEW CARS. *JB
