Consumer Description

I OWN VW JETTA 1.8 TURBO 2002, AT 2005 HAD A COOLANT BOTTLE LEAKING INTO CONNECTION,CLUSTER, COOLANT FOUND AT CONNECTOR. SINCE MY CAR WAS UNDER EXTENDED WARRANTY BY MASTERGUARD THEY JUST DID A PATCH WORK OVERLAYING HORNS TO CLUSTER AND REPLACING THE COOLANT BOTTLE AND CAP LEAVING ALL MAJOR WORK WHICH NEED TO BE DONE AT THIS CASE TO PREVENT FOLLOWING DAMAGE OF ENTIRE WIRING SYSTEM CAUSING COMPLETE FAILURE OF THE CAR. SO I WOULD PAY FROM MY WALLET $ 6000 OR MORE WHEN WARRANTY EXPIRES. MY CAR NOW STARTED HAVING ALL THIS PROBLEM DUE TO THAT COOLANT MIGRATION LEFT THERE. IT'S A MANUFACTURER DEFECT AND NEEDS TO BE REPAIRED BY MANUFACTURE. SO,WHO IS GOING TO PAY NOW FOR THAT? CLASS ACTION NEED TO BE TAKING AGAINST VW!!! *TR
