I'm on my 3rd Jetta TDI. I traded in a 2000 GLS for a 2003 GLS wagon on Saturday. Sunday was the first time I tried to put it in reverse and I noticed a problem. I took it to the shop Monday and I haven't seen it since. Looks like they need to put in a new transmission. First it was a retainer clip on the shift linkage now it's a transmission. I called VW America and demanded a different car. I felt I bought a new car and I should get a used car after only 47 hours of ownership.
What do you think?
I ask the dealership sales manager and one other from another dealership and both said it was unheard of to need a new transmission right off the lot. VW America refused to trade my car. I don't want to sell it back I just want a new car.
Sound off please. I'm getting screwed. I need a medium for expressing my issue. Anybody have a media idea?
