Consumer Description
ON 9/6/2019 I BOUGHT 2019 VW JETTA 1.4 T R-LINE TSI 16 VALVE DOHC TURBO 4 CYLINDER W/DIRECT FUEL INJECTION. HAD IT BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP THE FIRST WEEK COMPLAINING ABOUT THE GRINDING AND GROWLING NOISES UNDER 40 MPH RANGE WHILE DRIVING IN CITY TRAFFIC. I WAS TOLD BY ANOTHER DEALERSHIP IT IS NORMAL FOR 8 SPEED TRANSMISSIONS. ALSO SAID THE ONLY WAY STOP THE NOISE IS TO DRIVE IT IN SPORT MOD , NOT GOOD WITH GAS CONSUPTION BUT YOU WON'T HEAR IT. WHILE MAKING A U TURN AND COMING OUT OF A DRIVE WAY INTO CITY TRAFFIC, IT HAS UNPREDICTABLE ACCELERATION WHICH REALLY SHOCKED ME. I LEFT RUBBER AND THE WHEELS MADE A LOUD SOUND ON THE PAVEMENT. IT LARCHED TWICE AND I DO NOT TRUST THIS CAR.
