Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: Out of no where my radio on my 2003 volkswagen jetta wagon stopped working. all i got was static on my radio. after reviewing several vw forums, i found out that my radio antenna had corroded inside. i took it apart and cleaned all the corrosion and found that the main wire on the circuit board was broke. i had to solder a new wire onto it. many vw owners are complaining about this same problem, but volkswagen will not do anything about it. a antenna should not go bad in a three year old car. *jb
