Mid-1999 Volkswagen introduced the Jetta iv series. The coils suspension springs on the 4-cylinder tdi diesel are too tall and too soft, leading to extreme over steer and body roll in curves and extreme intolerance for wind turbulence at highway speeds created by nature, tractor trailers and (even) small cars. This is (nearly) an admitted defect, as Volkswagen offers a spring upgrade kit for 4-cylinder Jettas in its aftermarket catalog! nestled right there between the custom key fobs and floor mats! furthermore, reviews of the 2005 model reveal a complete overhaul to the suspension system. I have tried to correct the problem with stiffer and wider tires, to no avail. They need to be taken to task on this issue. I am reporting today, as it is only moderately windy and (yet) I have had difficulty maintaining stability at highway speeds. This could be an undetected factor in many incidents.

We hit a light poll and a telephone poll. We hit the light poll front and center and the telephone poll on the driver's side front. We hit both going 40 miles per hour and the damage was so sever that the car was wrapped around the polls, enough to break though the sub-frame, tear off the axel of the drivers front, and push engine upwards breaking the engine mounts. The damage on the driver's side continues to the driver's door causing it to be very difficult to open the door so the injured can be removed from the car. The driver's side tire do not explode; rather it is misshaped the rim, the wheel well, and the tire it self. None of the four air bags deployed. Why? if someone needs to see the pictures or would like to see the pictures, please let me know and I will gladly E-mail pictures of the damage. Thank you for your time! jessica a. rigaud.
