I've experienced several problems with my 2001 Volkswagen Jetta glx. I still wonder why it's not a lemon. Had problems with the brake switch which was a recall. I also had problems with the check engine light. Technicians made diagnostic check and said I needed the heat sensor changed so I did. After a week, check engine light lit up again so I brought it back to the dealership and had another diagnostic check which I paid for again 78 bucks. This time the tech's said I needed the sparks and wires changed because it was shooting blanks. Pre-paid for the parts and when the parts arrived, I brought my car back to get it fixed so I did. Later, I got call from the service reps and said my ignition coil broke so they had to order that again. After everything was said and done. I just wanted to let my financer to just voluntarily repo the piece of trash. One more break down and I'm hiring a lemon attorney. This is too much.

: the contact stated the vehicle coolant leaked into the electrical wiring harness. An independent repair shop performed a diagnostic test, but no failure codes displayed. Upon further inspection, the mechanic determined there was a coolant migration problem. The electrical wiring harness was corroded due to the coolant leak. The vehicle was taken to an authorized dealer to await repair.

I have a Volkswagen Jetta 2001 VR6 with a bad coil. I found an article from Feb 2003 released by VW saying all 2001 and some 2002 & 2003 models were being recalled for the coils. When I called VW they said in does not apply to my model. While searching the internet it seems this is common for those year and obviously the coil is faulty.

Vehicle has been serviced a minimum of 20 times for reoccuring problems. Since the vehicle had 800 miles on it, it has had issues running properly. Vehicle has stalled on more than a few occasions, and put both my child and wife in immediate danger. This vehicle is unsafe to drive, by my standards. Here is a small sample of whats been replaced on a 3 year old 40500 mile vehicle: Throttle body 4 times secondary air pump 2 times diverter valve 2 times coils 5 times engine wiring harness ABS control unit fuse for secondary airpump ECM 2 times armrest on door 2 times center console armrest 2 times rear brakes under warranty at 10K miles
