 I bought a 2014 Passat Sport edition. Smoke was billowing from the engine within the first two weeks after purchase with six miles on the odometer. After several (3 to 4) recalls on the transmission, Bluetooth issues, many hours at their service center and an attorney, the car was finally re-purchased by VW and then re-sold at auction. I had to pay an additional several thousand to get out from the loan and legal fees. I would not purchase a VW again, and I wouldn't recommend anyone buying one. Buying a car is one of the biggest investments you make so make sure to invest in a brand that stands behind their product.
