 We bought this car a couple years ago 
with only 19K miles on it. We've since 
added another 30K. It was a wonderful 
car at first, but lately things have 
been going wrong. Thedash lights 
coming on for no reason. The trunk pop 
button only works periodically. The 
rear defrost works occasionaly. The 
driver's side lock cylinder just came 
out of the door, and the VW Repair 
person told me that 
it's a common problem. 
Also, one of the rear brake shoes 
broke in half due to a bad bearing. It 
still runs fine, but I'm getting tired 
of having to fix all the little things 
that go wrong. Next time, I'm buying a 
Honda or Toyota.
