Hi everyone, Have any of you Golf owners had a problem with the heater core? My car is just five years old. I drive it 3000-4000 miles a year. (I live in the city.) And the heater core is broken. I have called the dealer and Volkswagen USA. I've had the dealer call VW. They insist they will not help with the repair at all. And it is very expensive. The repair shop has given me an estimate to replace it of almost $800! I have read online about a recall of 1989 Golfs. And problems with the heater cores in PAssats. Anyone else? I am pretty angry. I've had to take the car to the dealer 4 times because of recalls. If you are thinking of buying a VW my advice is DON"T.
