Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: Heater core vw jetta 1995. vw is aware that heater cores on all jetta's from 1990-1998 have a poorly manufacured heater core. in 1990 they issued a recall for the 1990 passat. they still have not corrected this fault and went on to install the same part on all 1990-1998 jetta iii's. last week when i was driving my jetta filled up with coolant smoke in the cabin. i veered off the road. i ran into a fence. vw while it has offered good faith repairs in the past now refused to cover this systemic failure and the cost to repair this item is $500- $800. *tr
