inferior cars
Since 2004 I have only bought. VW cars. My first car was a Jetta4. Then I left the country for 2 years and in 2009 I bought a VW Tiguan. In 2010 there was a problem with the engine and the whole sub assembly was changed under warranty. No courtesy car was provided in the whole two weeks the car was in the workshop only a few days at the end of the job. In may 2014 the same car had an engine problem. The pistons had to be changed. R35000later not under warranty anymore. December 2014 engine light on again this time the turbo is faulty. Barons quotes me R25000 to fix. I decide to trade the car in and. I basically lost R25000 on the trade in. I contacted VWabout the problem with the car, they didn't even offer to change the turbo for free considering engine problems I had with the car. <br> I also have a Polo vivo bought in 2012. In 2013 a brake shudder developed. Took it to Barons they replaced brake discs under waranty. Again. In 2014 a brake shudder developed. This ti e I was told I had to pay because there was only a6 month warranty on the brake discs. Can you imagine only 6 months. R2400 later. Volkswagen clearly are using inferior parts. VW sorry I will never buy a VW again .
