 problems with paint chipping.   
The dealer said it was from rocks.  I 
have had the problems since before 
5,000 miles. Always garaged just went 
over the 24,000 mark this weekend. Rear 
facing seats must be positioned 
straight up in order for the front 
seats to be comfortable. Brakes 
replaced at 20,500 miles - our Dodge 
Caravan has 49,000 miles and has 
never had the brakes replaced (not the 
norm, but indicative of our driving 
habits) or the paint damage the Eurovan 
has. Vehicle surges when driving. Van 
has been maintained by VW dealer per 
manufacturer's recommendations. Dealers 
not much help.  Wrote to VW customer 
when van was new - no response.
