Want to know everything there is to know about this car?

In their own words

Fuel pump failure. Vacuum pump failure. Clutch failure. Driveshaft failure. Handbrake module and Caliper failure. Batter failure. All in the 1 year I’ve owned it. I am Adobe hard VW fan and it’s all I’ve drove. But this car has made me want to switch to something Japanese. Worst thing is these are common faults that VW refuse to acknowledge as issues. Worst car I’ve ever owned.
