Description of the problem | I own a 2012, jetta, tdi. The dealer had to change the horn. The dealership advised me that they change so many of these defective horns that they stock them. As a law enforcement officer i feel this is a safety issue. It makes me wonder now if there other life-threatening problems with the vehicle they haven't bothered to fix. I see countless vw's with taillights out as i patrol. I can't believe vw is putting their customers in danger with a known common problems. |
