Numerous problems with 1999 Volkswagen Passat. When taken to the service dealer, the consumer claimed the car had problems with oil and coolant leaks. The problem was suppose to be fixed, however the dealer never gave the consumer a invoice because the work was never completed. While traveling, the oil light came on again. The consumer was unable to use the vehicle. Also the loss of fair market value. Consumer spent over a $1000 in repairs.. the air condition did cool the vehicle properly, and there was also a valve cover leak, and a power steering fluid leak, the dealer stated the power steering hose was bad, the glove box failed to open, the driver side vanity mirror was broke and the head light bulb was replaced.
