Consumer Description

HEATER CORE VW JETTA 1995. VW IS AWARE THAT HEATER CORES ON ALL JETTA'S FROM 1990-1998 HAVE A POORLY MANUFACURED HEATER CORE. IN 1990 THEY ISSUED A RECALL FOR THE 1990 PASSAT. THEY STILL HAVE NOT CORRECTED THIS FAULT AND WENT ON TO INSTALL THE SAME PART ON ALL 1990-1998 JETTA III'S. LAST WEEK WHEN I WAS DRIVING MY JETTA FILLED UP WITH COOLANT SMOKE IN THE CABIN. I VEERED OFF THE ROAD. I RAN INTO A FENCE. VW WHILE IT HAS OFFERED GOOD FAITH REPAIRS IN THE PAST NOW REFUSED TO COVER THIS SYSTEMIC FAILURE AND THE COST TO REPAIR THIS ITEM IS $500- $800. *TR
