 Purchased a new 2009 Routon S.  Nothing but problems!  Headlamp held water, bumper cover started coming- off, trans seal leak, engine compartment rattle, stock ventshades would not stick to the windows, 2 window motors, all of this within 9 months.  Bob King VW did not apparently know how to do a proper trns service, which led to the rattle.  Took a tech from Charlotte to figure it out!  No trans dipstick and the dealer and VW district rep would not order one when asked, even said I would pay for it!  Be prepared for pure frustration with the vehicle, dealer, and VW of America.  Also be prepared to hire an attorney, as VW of America is a useless car co. Avoid VW and Chrysler at all costs.
