35000 mi US $48 |
High-pressure touchless car wash caused water to leak through the third (anti-collision) brake light (they think). Cost was 1/2 typical for the water test. Even though the car is out of warranty VWoA covered the cost of part replacement. |
36000 mi | The "repair" reported earlier for the water leak at the 3rd brake light was unsuccessful. I had the opportunity to go to the same touch-less car wash and had the same result. I tried silicon caulk around the light - have not washed it yet. |
75000 mi US $200 |
The trunk latch wouldn't lock so the trunk wouldn't lock. This could however be related to being rear-ended some months ago. Stopped working 2-4 weeks after the repair to the bumper beneath the latch. Repair was a new latch lock and relatively cheap. |
turbocharged 200hp 2.0L I4 6-speed shiftable automatic AWD
55800 mi | Covered by warranty: 1 door and windshield posts replaced because of rust |
11960 mi | Water stain on headlinder by "A" post driver's side. Sunroof drain faulty. |
11520 mi | Rust on winter steel wheels. Dealer I bought the winter package says the one year accessory warranty doesn't cover rust. POOR OEM QUALITY WHEELS AT PREMIUM PRICE! WILL BUY AFTERMARKET WINTER PACKAGE FROM NOW ON! |
16520 mi | Condensation inside both fog lights. Dealer just cleaned them with compressed air. Still able to see most dried water marks. I guess the condensation problem will return. Not impress with this kind of problem on a 20 months old car. |
12400 mi | Rattle in dashboard fixed by dealer adjusting the harness for the radio/CD player. Completed under warranty quickly and courteously by VW Waterloo. |
620 mi | Tailgate body work and rear bumper, car was damaged prior to delivery. |
