All four door handles outside have broken off, the passenger indoor handle has broken off and the safey check was failed because of this. VW says this is just "wear and tear" but we believe this has to be a design fault - and now it's a safey issue too.

Driver's side front power window failed and 3 of 4 door handles failed on car owned by initial buyer for 4 years, 4 months. Failure of so many parts is excessive, as is quote from dealer for repairs (>$1,000). Reported via phone to VW, but no response.
