Consumer Description

MY COMPLAINT IS ON THE 2003 NEW BEETLE CONVERTIBLE REAR WINDOW REGULATOR. THE WINDOW IS DOWN AND WILL NOT ROLL UP. I TOOK MY CAR INTO FIX THE BACK DRIVERS SIDE WINDOW, AND GOT A QUOTE OF $880 FOR EACH WINDOW. WHY IS VWOA MAKING CONSUMERS PAY FOR REPAIRS ON THEIR CARS WHEN IT IS OBVIOUSLY A DESIGN FLAW? I HAVE READ NUMEROUS WEBSITES AND THEY WERE FULL OF PEOPLE JUST LIKE ME THAT GET STUCK WITH A BILL FROM VW FOR SOMETHING THAT THEY SHOULD BE COVERING. IS THERE ANY TYPE OF CLASS ACTION HAPPENING ABOUT THIS? OR POSSIBLY A RECALL? THANK YOU! *TR
