Description of the problem | The tail lights of my new 2019 vw jetta, are a hazard for anyone washing the vehicle. They are very sharp at the bottom edge and you can cut your self. As a matter of fact that happened to the sales agent that i negotiated with on december 27th at vw gunther on delray beach florida. He went to help with the cleaning of the car for the delivery, and came back bleeding with a bandage in his finger. Now i am afraid to clean that area and i told everyone in my family to be careful. I think vw should correct this issue asap |
