The car for every occasion

This car can honestly do it all. It has never let me down even when driving through a white out. The car is amazing on gas and is outstanding for long trips.

Most Luxurious Affordable Car

I didn?t expect to buy this car when I went searching for one. I?ve driven Jettas all my life and this one is the best so far. The leather interior doesn?t get scalding hot when left in the sun, the car warms up in minutes and the heated seats are to die for. Lots of trunk room is a plus and the rear seats are easily adjusted to be put down to create even more room. All in all I love this car and would recommend it to anyone looking for a first car, or something plain with a lot of nice features including the sport mode and bluetooth phone connectivity.

Great car for the money

This car has been a great commuter car. The only issue I've encountered is a problem with the headlights. I've gone through three pairs of low beam bulbs in 5 years and just had to take it back in when they stopped working again (this time the bulbs were still good and there were no blown fuses). The Passat has a recall on the headlights. Maybe the Jetta needs the same.

Reliable, ready and really nice!

My 5th Jetta. Fun and 40 mpg. No surprises, no secrets. Loads of value for the price. Safe, dependable and ready for the next 100,000 miles. Good looking and runs like a gazelle!
