Example complaints

Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.

“At least 5 times I have had my finger caught in the drivers side interior door handle release. It seems to catch my fingers in the back of the handle. I've owned 4 other VW Jettas and this has never happened. It 's mostly aggravating but it also hurts!”
