Passat 2.0t

  • Automatic transmission
  • 62,000 miles

Airbag Fault warning light comes on. Drop off at dealer. Get call later saying need to replace passenger airbag for about $650. Yeah, like I use my airbag all the time and I wore it out. Not under warrenty and no recalls, just like the a/c compressor that died at 54,000 miles and cost $1300, or the headlight bulb that burned out and cost $600 to replace. Getting rid of this before I have another $1000 bill to replace a tire valve cap or something.
