 I've had my 2006, 2.5 L automatic Jetta for about 3 years and I can't understand how it gets good reliability ratings. My car has 67,000 miles and has had a number of high-priced repairs. It seems like the check engine light in tthis car come on regularly. So far I had an emission problem, replaced a CV joint boot, and most notably replaced the large fan (the large fan repair was nearly $500). I'm going back to my Toyota dealership and if my gas pedal sticks, I will still have a more reliable car!
