Consumer Description

WINDOWS SUDDENLY AND INEXPLICABLY FALL DOWN INTO DOORS. IF CHILDREN ARE IN THE CAR WHEN THIS OCCURS THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY HAZARD (I HAVE CHILD SAFETY WINDOWS IN THE BACK SEATS OF MY CAR AND USE THEM WHEN MY NEPHEWS ARE IN THE CAR). THE CAR IS OPEN TO THEFT AND DAMAGE FROM THE ELEMENTS. THIS HAS BEEN AN ONGOING PROBLEM WITH VW CARS AS I FOUND OUT THROUGH TALKING TO OTHER CUSTOMERS. I CONSIDER THIS TO BE A SAFETY ISSUE AND SOMETHING THE NHTSA SHOULD LOOK INTO
