A D V E R T I S E M E N T S

I bought a 1999 Volkswagen Beetle on August 4, 2004. On August 27, 2004 I brought the car to a VW dealership and they told me that it needed a new clutch. I then brought the car to the dealership that I bought it from and asked them to fix the clutch, as it is under warranty. They refused, and said that I ruined the clutch due to my driving. According to them this can happen in the 23 days that I owned the car. They still continue to refuse to fix the problem.
