09/11/08	2008 Volkswagen Jetta Pros and Cons Member2598 Worst in segment for the gas engine
09/08/08	2004 Volkswagen Jetta Pros and Cons Member2592 This has been a trouble-free car for four years & 40,000+ miles.
09/01/08	2002 Volkswagen Jetta Pros and Cons A member in California, United States Clean lines, and the ability to hide nuts and bolts.
07/18/08	2006 Volkswagen Jetta Pros and Cons Member1999 Everything is a package, so if you want leather, or Nav, figure on adding $5000 to the cost of the car.
05/26/08	2002 Volkswagen Jetta Pros and Cons Member444 I know VW has a well deserved reputation for buggy electronics and somewhat questionable initial fit and finish. However, the basic drivetrain is extremely rugged. They seem to get more reliable with age. My jetta went nearly 100,000 between shop visits.
05/23/08	2002 Volkswagen Jetta Pros and Cons Member1151 Nice red and blue backlights for controls at night time.
05/21/08	2006 Volkswagen Jetta Pros and Cons Member1724 The car comes standard with 6 airbags, ABS, traction control, Electronic Stability Program, Brake Assist, active headrest, etc. On top of that it one of the safest vehicles on the road today (IIHS Best Pick).
05/18/08	2006 Volkswagen Jetta Pros and Cons Member410 The fact that it has the best safety ratings of any car in its class. It also has 12 airbags, electronic stability control, traction control, and ABS standard.
05/17/08	2003 Volkswagen Jetta Pros and Cons Member1970 The ride is firm, but stops short of harsh. This is exactly what I like in a car.
05/17/08	2006 Volkswagen Jetta Pros and Cons Member910 When I was in the market, fuel economy was my main criteria. Basically it came down to hybrid or diesel. Diesel won out due to its known life cycle as opposed to the unknown battery situation with a hybrid.
