My air conditioner went out on my 2000 vw jetta. I figured it was something simple. I took it in to the dealership and they said that the compressor needed to be replaced. They said it was going to cost $1,400.00+ to fix it! I don't understand how something this major could happen on a car that is only 3 years old!

This car has literally come unscrewed since i purchased it 2.5 years ago-parts inside and out! Most recently the axle "came unscrewed" for no reason and the bolts snapped. The windows have malfunctioned and the rear suspension had to be screwed back together shortly after i bought it. The plastic covering underneath also fell off for no reason-also while i was driving. The windshield wipers have come unscrewed twice…

Engine check light and emissions work shop warning keeps coming on. Each time i take the car in the dealership tells me that its a different reason the light is coming on. To date they have made three different repairs to the car and none of them have worked. I received the last check engine/emissions workshop on 4/10/01 and car is in the shop being fixed.*aky

Cooling System · Unknown Or Other
Engine check light came on. Car was 14 months old, but out of warranty by mileage. The dealer replaced the coolant sensor for $175.00!! Now two months later the "check engine" light is on again. There appears to be water/coolant in the oil! Now the car is about 16 months old. Volkswagen of america refused to pay for the prior repair, and did not pay for the failed interior lights, either.*ak

Each electrical problem was annoying for a brand new car but they were fixed. My concern is the oil burning for no apparent reason. No one at the dealership took me seriously until i threatened them with legal action but my car is still burning oil. I can't seem to make anyone understand that a car only one year old should not consume oil like this car is doing now. Twice i have been stranded with my 9 month old son…
