Description of the problem | I was sold a brand new 2012 volkswagen jetta without a passenger airbag. Additionally, there were multiple other defects with the vehicle, and by definition, i was sold a lemon. I've tried bringing the vehicle back to the dealership on multiple occasions to repair the problems, and they have yet to be able to correct the issues. The dealership installed a new airbag which has malfunctioned on more than a few occasions, resulting in the airbag light coming on and causing faults in the terminals leading to the tail lights and shorts in the dashboard. |
