 Do not be fooled by VW salespeople!!  This was my first, and LAST, Volkswagen, without question. I have owned this car for 7 months and it has been in for service 5 times. I should have listened to every VW owner I new, and that is, the car rides great, looks sharp, and "seems" well made. The problem is, they are not. I had Windows rolling down on their own, and not going back up. Bumper was set improperly at the factory I was told, causing issues when closing the hatch. Mystery dent popping out in the side of the door, FROM THE INSIDE, and was told not lean on the door?!?!  (I never did). Just small things, but the second my 36k warranty is up, it will start Getting costly. However, the worst part of this car, is the absurd level of noise when driving with the rear windows down. Some of you will say, "oh, all cars do that."  And to you I challenge you to drive this car. After being told that by VW, o took it upon myself. I drove 7 different cars at the same speed (45 mph) and NONE of them came close to the noise of this car. UNBEARABLE. I purchased this car having told the salesperson I have 2 large dogs that I planned on having in the car.  This is not possible, as the noise is still quite loud, with the front windows cracked as well. Response from VW, "sorry, that is just the way it is."  So, lesson learned by me, never again. Poor customer service, poor resale value (thanks to scandal) and a poorly made car. If you want a car that looks nice and is fun to drive (when it isn't in the shop), but is going to constantly have problems and cost you a ton of time, headaches, and money(once the bumper to bumper wears out, then buy this car. But, YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!!!
