The window regulator broke on my front, passenger-side window. Based on the large number of consumer complaints as well as other information, i have reason to believe that the window regulator is defective. Vw has not issued a recall on this part and has refused to pay for the replacement of the regulator in my vehicle. I believe this is a potential safety hazard as the window regulator can suddenly fail and cause…

For the 2nd time, the window regulator on my volkswagen jetta has broken. The first time (driver's side), i bought and replaced the regulator myself. The 2nd time (passenger side), the dealership (dirito bros in walnut creek, ca) fixed it under "good will". When i fixed it myself, i noticed no differences between the replacement part and the original. The dealer claims that they perform several window regulator…

In both instances the window abruptly slid into the door when i hit the power window button once. For other examples on this please check www.vwvortex.com and go under "forums" and do a search for…

I have been told by the local dealerships they cannot look at/repair the remaining windows until it actually fails. I have contacted volkswagen's customer care department, and they stated that "this is why cars come with warranties" and that it was my problem, not theirs. I have received terrible service from volkswagen for various other minor defects in addition.no safety defec tlisted. *ak

I am not satisfied with my 2001 jetta. One week after i purchased the car in aug 2001 the passenger and driver side seats started to move everytime i stepped on the brake. I took it to the dealership and they said nothing was wrong. A few months later i noticed that floor padding on the back seat area (both sides) started bulging. The dealership indicated that is normal for all 2001 jettas. I have several friends…
