| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: While driving from pa to boston my car's engine broke down in what appears to be a common issue with the vw 1.8 liter turbo engines. the passat (from '98-'04) had an extended warranty on the issue because of this defect. i drive a '03 jetta with vw's 1.8 turbo engine, but because it's not a passat the warranty was not extended. i still have several months of payments on this car and it only has 70,000. all vw can/wants to do to help me is offer $1,500 in repairs or trade in. i'm looking at $7,200 and owe $1,600 on the car. *tr |
