| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: The two areas we have had problems with since the very beginning are the check engine light keeps coming on for no reason. they have asked us if we closed the gas cap tightly? we always do! each time they say it is something else which is now getting costly. the other problem is the overwhelming smell of gas that has made us sick and caused horrible headaches. the dealership has not fixed this problem either and asked if we top off when we fill up. we do not. we feel that this car is having major electricial problems as we do have a 2001golf and have not experienced any problems with it. we would like to thank you in advance for your assistance in this matter. sincerely, [xxx] & [xxx]. *ak parts of this document have been redacted to protect personally identifiable information pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6). |
