Love her but dang.

I love my Passat but over the years (4.5) I have fished out SO much money into this car on major repairs. It took me researching engine problems to learn these cars have an average motor life of 6.5 years which is RIDICULOUS. This year alone my fan blade bent out of no where. The radiator cracked out of no where!!!l and now my engine isn’t holding oil out of nowhere!!! This is getting old the whole forking out $$$’s at a time to fix its random repairs on top of regular maintenance. I just. Ugh. I love it so much for carrying me all these years but now I’m in a pickle behind it because I’m careless now with a toddler! Idk maybe there’s a blessing in disguise. I’m just waiting! In the meantime I’m just warning others to do your research beforehand on cars!!!!

Passat

I like the Volkswagen Passat but the maintenance is extremely expensive and needs constant watch because if you don’t fix whatever it says it’s wrong right away everything else starts to break down. It’s a special car with a lot of attention needs

The on broad computer is not working correctly. the Dealership can not fix it to speak in English. the engine light keeps coming on and off. Driving me crazy.

I like the car as a whole. the above review is worrying me. bought it used a yr. ago at a dealership with 42,000 miles. It did not speak english then that did not bother me. It was when the GPS stopped working that I started to have second thoughts about my purchase. I use GPS in my business and am now using my phone.

Quality and reliability

I was attracted to the Passat for its style and reputation. I've had no vehicle issues other than normal maintenance since purchasing the car in the fall of 2014. Its 4-cylinder engine is plenty peppy (same engine that goes into an Audi) and the mileage is fantastic. A recent road trip with most of the miles on highways, got me in excess of 38 mpg even with the AC going the whole time. One drawback...road noise. Had I been wearing my hearing aids during the test drive, I might have had some concerns. As it is, I don't wear them while driving! Overall, this car is a winner.

Generally Very Happy

This is a very well built car. It handles very well and is easy to drive. It's also very roomy and comfortable and is very economical for this size car. Engine is somewhat loud at lower speeds around town but super quiet at highway speed. One annoying problem area: In freezing temperatures the doors will sometimes freeze and not open or open but not close until car is warmed up. Dealer replaced latch on left rear door under warrantee but next winter the same door froze up again. Dealer says it's a common problem with some VWs.

Solid Car With a Few Issues.

This is generally a very pleasant, comfortable car. It's responsive enough, handles very well for a mid-size family car and the gas mileage is excellent. Two problems we've had: In very cold weather, the back doors sometimes won't open until the car warms up. The left rear latch was replaced under warranty, however we had the same problem with that door the following winter. We finally got it open, but then it wouldn't close. My wife sat in the back, buckled in, holding the door shut till we got home. Also the brakes need replacing due to rusty parts after 28,000+ miles over five years. Seems a little soon.

2014 VW Passat TDI sel

I absolutely love my car! Very luxurious, lots of room in the back seat I'm 6'4" and my son who is 5'6" can sit behind me with plenty of leg room, very large cargo space, great fuel economy. From Wilmington NC to Amarillo TX (1,700+ miles) on 2.5 tanks of fuel. I am currently having a issue with the glow plugs dealer has had it twice now for a total of 7days hoping they figure it out so I can keep loving my VW!

Fun awesome safe car

The only issue I had with this car was my brakes but got that taken care of the past week and fell in love with my car all over again. I have been driving a Volkswagen since the age of 15 and I am now 29 now and purchased my own v dub this year. The Passat tsi is a super fun and safe car with awesome gas mileage. I will never drive another breed of a car. V dub for life!

The Miracle Car

I enjoy my 2014 Passat Wolfsburg Edition. It is fun to drive, highly respected, and still gets compliments. Of course I keep her very clean inside out. An amazing experience!

Excellent vehicle.

I have had my Passat TDI SE for 2 years and have enjoyed it. The car has speed when required, it also has plenty of power traveling from Seattle to Eastern Washington it did not even notice the mountains. The fuel consumption is everything VW promised. 35 town and 50 open road. It has everything you need and nothing you do not need.

Love this Car

My wife and I love this car. It has beautiful and classic looks, it has more interior room than most large cars, larger trunk, and it performs very well. I was surprised to find that it got better fuel mileage than advertised. Great car. I would not hesitate to buy a VW Passat TDI.

The TDI Love

Purchased a slightly used 2014 Volkswagen Passat TDI with the DSG transmission and frankly this car is an absolute winner from every angle. The looks are timeless; the interior huge and stylish in a somber yet sophisticated Germanic manner; The build quality is insane and is manufactured in Tennessee; and the fuel economy is ALWAYS above the EPA rating no matter what and under any circumstance (try a high so far of 49 MPG on the interstate and 37MPG in town)! The pity is: I am keeping this car until it has reached ultimate hoopty status. The torque is addictive. Just lightly prod the pedal and it just goes. Sometimes you might think there's something wrong with the transmission because it doesn't shift, it just moves. How many vehicles have you owned that show a range of over 840 miles to go until empty? Yeah, it's that good. No great. Screw it, it is EXCELLENT and Volkswagen built one hell of a car.

Great Car

I Love That Car I Would Recommend Anyone To Get A Volkswagen Passat. It's Fully Loaded Leather Seat Sunroof It Has It All. You Can Find One At Sumter Chrysler Dealership. Or Here In Columbia At The Volkswagen Dealership. Broad river Road Or On killan Road Volkswagen. Or You Can Go Online Shopping For One.
