problem #1

Sep 152012

Jetta SE 2.5L

  • Automatic transmission
  • 50,000 miles

Faulty Transmission cooler from manufacturer .. which broke and caused transmission fluid and radiator coolant mixed up with each other. Dealer has replaced the transmission cooler ( which was faulty in first place) . Dealer said down the road it might have some more problems . This is clearly manufacturer defect and i would like to fight with VW .. After paying 23k for owning it and ran 53k on it and now i feel like all my money and trust with VW is gone. I have paid 1350$ for repairs from my own pocket for manufacturers defect.

Thanks to VW for ripping a loyal customer from past 13 odd years..

Update from Oct 2, 2012: Changed the transmission cooler and still having some issues. Spoke to Manufacturer and got awesome response from them . They will be taking care of all issues.
