I've noticed that VW owners have more problems than Hyundai owners. If VW's were made in Germany, everything would be better!! My brother's 2001 VW Jetta 1.8t, have problems, thEn more problems; it's a chain of events. Do You know why I know this car is not a lemon? IT'S BECAUSE 90% OF VW OWNERS SUFFER THE SAME CRAP. Interior electrical problems, crusie control problems, ignition problems, coil pack problems, engine sludge problems.. blah blah blah. Everyone knows that it's not VW's engineering, it's the QC at the Mexican plant, and the lazy workers. Why can't VW move their factories to American or Canada; their quality would be ALOT BETTER. Now I know why VW is at the bottom of the JD Power list. Yet, VW's are still a fad.
In Conclusion: VW's and APPLE products are popular trends, but they break down 90% of the time. yep, my brother always follow the trends.. he's on his 5th IPOD and his 2nd Apple computer due to failure.

You like treading on the race card, don't you?
The ford focus is built in Mexico.. it is not a bad car.
My Bmw was made in Germany.. most E36 models suffer from weak floors that allow the rear subframes to rip out, poor quality interiors that warp and split, headliners that fall down, door glass mechanisms that bent, split, and drop the glass into the doors. Sunroofs that stop working, bad pixels in the odometer and on board computer, the electronic climate control dies and gets stuck. The cooling fans explode and take the radiator with them. They have plastic waterpumps that sheer off of the shaft. The thermostat housing is plastic and splits. The radiator tanks are plastic and break, taillights eat the lamps for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Wipers get stuck..
any questions?
I also ripped out one of the mounts for my front swaybar today.. pulled the studs right out of the sheetmetal of the chassis.

I know this is locked, but eh, KR, your location is not "I Love Jesus". It's like "Albertsville Insane Asylum, France Indiana" or something.
Please fix it.
