Car saves me alot of mental dipression

I’ve had this car since 2011, its a 2012 and all I’ve had done is two sets of tires ,three batteries and a few oil changes ( synthetic) Also no antifreeze as it is “lifetime antifreeze”? Makes me nervous but happy. Inside is a mess but still looks like new outside , for a ten year old car with 20,000 miles / might be my last car?

Love My Jetta!

Love this car! It has unbelievable pickuo! Fun to drive. We bought it used as a run around town car and it has been a blessing. He gets great gas mileage too! Maintenance has been minimal so far. It was a great deal and investment.

Acceptable auto knowledge but 0 communication

There is only one VW dealer to take your car in for schedule maintenance and or repain of problems to satisfy warranty requirements. And for the above mentioned reasons I cannot recommend this auto or any vs product because of terrible maintenance service scheduling. In conclusion....Moffitt VW needs to bolster the economy by hiring more people instead of saying "we just don't have enough service techs.

VW Jetta GLI - a total money pit

I will never buy a VW again. Bought this Jetta new in 2012 and have nothing but problems inclusive of 2 sets of ignition coils before 50, 000 miles, a new engine due to a faulty timing chain component and a new turbo charger... never again.

Needs more BHP

Since this is a sports sedan, I wish that it was rear wheel drive and had more horsepower but for the price and the longevity it’s had it’s a good car. Also if you have back issues I’d not get this sports model as the suspension is very tight and you do feel the road.

2012 Volkswagen Jetta is Been Great

I've had my car now for 4 years. I haven't had any major problems out of it. I absolutely love my car. It's very dependable & reliable. It's fun to drive. It's a safe vehicle in which I definitely would recommend.

Great car

Not much to say. Just had to replace the head gasket and sensor. Other than that. Seats in front are not the most comfortable. Great car otherwise. Great car for the value. Nothing worth complaining about.

It’s no Subaru but definitely the most luxurious vehicle I’ve had. The bank had to check twice when I got this steal of a deal!

Second Jetta

This is my second Jetta that I have owned. A good stylish car that packs alot of value for the money. Looks more expensive. Does everything well. Rides smooth and is easy to handle. I most definitely will purchase a third Jetta.

Decent car

Over all the 2012 Jetta hasn’t been bad. We bought it brand new and it’s had a few issues but nothing that wasn’t really handled under warranty. Only thing that wasn’t handled under warranty was the paint started to peel along the bottom rocker panel. We were told by the dealership that the paint there isn’t considered paint even though it’s the exact same color as the rest of the car, so there for it isn’t covered under the paint defect warranty. But over all it’s been a pretty reliable car. We have put 101,000 miles on It since buying it in 2013.

4th ? on the road

I've owned a Suzuki which was horrible, my Ford almost killed me and had the most mechanical problems, my Audi was awesome but the maintenance was high, but my VW makes me want to buy another VW. Reliable and good on gas. I plan on keeping it even if I get another car.

2012 VW Jetta SE

I was looking for something with style, comfort, and smooth ride after my Mustang convertible and this was the perfect choice. They new Jettas have a back up camera, remote starter, and links your smartphone apps to the car's dashboard monitor which my 2012 lacks so that's why I'm giving 4 stars, as I would give my right arm to have those options.
