problem #1

Feb 282015

Beetle 5-cyl

  • 60,000 miles
Gas leakage from under hood identical to recall #20I4 but was told by VW dealership car was checked 3 years earlier and there was no problem in the location of parts and that this leakage happened at another area of the fuel line and VW of America concurred with dealership. Luckily there was no fire because it was leaking bad and I took it to the dealership after smelling gas odor inside car. It seems VW won't own up to anything unless there is a casualty. After having bought three Beetles I have no confidence in VW of America and this dealership anymore. Also the headliner has to be replaced and the windshield wipers never worked properly after dealership checked it when it was still under warranty. Very low mileage to be incurring design problems.
