We switched Holly's Dodge loaner for a Hyundai Elantra, pleasantly surprised at how decent it is.

Still wish we had the Jetta right now though.

 

the wheel bearing gremlin hit me again, rear pass side this time.

 

They've now said 6-8 weeks...

 

 

Tell me again to buy a German car?

 

I love my german car -- she's just turning 10! All these years, and she still meets all my needs.

 

Buy a German car.

 

So I too can enjoy a loaner whislt said German car is in the shop?









No thanks.

 

You told me to tell you to.




The fact they are fixing it by replacing the harness is a good thing, they didn't want the dealer splicing into it to fix the issue. Do I think it reasonable for it to take that long, no, of course not. I'm happy they aren't doing or allowing the dealer to do a hack job.

 

I bet that VW doesn't even manufacture the harness; but, they probably do something stupid like have it made by a supplier in Ohio, then shipped to Germany, and then shipped back here for your car. All those boat rides add up to 8 weeks.
