Consumer Description

MY 2000 VOLKSWAGEN JETTA NEEDED A FULL REPLACEMENT OF THE OIL PAN AND GASKET. THERE IS NO REASON THAT THIS PART SHOULD NEED TO BE REPLACED. ALSO AT 121,000 MILES THE CATALYTIC CONVERTER WAS REPLACED AND VOLKSWAGEN HAD IT UNDER EXTENDED WARRANTY UP TO 120,000 AND WOULD NOT REPLACE THE PART FOR ME. THERE IS NO REASON THESE PARTS SHOULD NEED REPLACEMENT. THE CAR HAS 129,500 MILES ON IT, HAS BEEN GARAGED, NEVER BEEN IN AN ACCIDENT AND HAS MOSTLY HIGHWAY MILES ON IT. *TR
