Since I have had this Jetta, I haven't had anything but problems with it. Squeaky breaks, rough shifting, and the odd break lock here and there, which according to my local VW dealers is all part of owning one of their vehicles and is perfectly normal and acceptable. Other issues have been electrical failure to the power window system (to which when I brought it in, they told me there were no problems), Bluetooth audio emitting a high pitch noise which can only be stopped by turning the car off/on, and the fuel door lock not working.

The positives to this vehicle is there is a lot of interior room for passengers in both the front and back seats, and a very large trunk. Fuel economy isn't great, but certainly ins't horrible.

Overall I can't say that i'm exactly pleased with this vehicle. It's the first VW that my family and myself have owned, and I can positively say that it will be the only one.
