At 20,000 miles my leased 2007 VW Jetta's rear brakes started squeaking and grinding. Took it to dealership and was told that the rear pads and rotors need to be replaced ($350!). I've never had a car with brakes problems this early, specially a front wheel drive car. I did some research and I see that this seems to be a manufacturing defect and VW should acknowledge it and fix it at no cost to the customer.
