Consumer Description

REAR WINDOW WOULD NOT GO UP. AUTOMATICALLY WENT BACK DOWN, AND THEN I HEAR WHAT SOUNDS LIKE GLASS BREAKING! THINK THERE ARE PLASTIC PARTS DOWN IN WINDOW THAT WERE ACTUALLY TEARING UP! HAD SEEN NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS ON THIS PROBLEM BEFORE AND WAS HOPING MY BUG WAS NOT A LEMON LIKE SO MANY OTHERS! VW HAS SEEN THIS PROBLEM REPEATEDLY, BUT STILL CONTINUES TO DO NOTHING BUT CHARGE AN ASTRONOMICAL AMOUNT TO "FIX" (PUT A BANDAGE ON IT) ! LOVE MY BUG, BUT THIS IS RIDICULOUS! SERIOUSLY THINKING OF GETTING RID OF IT BEFORE SOMETHING ELSE HAPPENS! *TR
