My window, while driving, just dropped into the door. I was in the countryside and not able to fix immediately due to no dealers. I was concerned about my safety --and the security of my car/belongings. The dealer told me this happens frequently and they would cover cost of parts ($150) if I cover labor ($156). I had no choice--and I appreciate their willingness to help. Vw dealer tells me this happens frequently. I have since had 3 different individuals in my neighborhood have the same thing happen. I called corporate -- they said, "it happens" and "cars aren't perfect". My car is just 2 years old...and shouldn't present these kind of problems. I sure hope vw is prepared for the day that someone is attacked, robbed, etc. B/c their windows broke! What can I do???
2000 Volkswagen Golf visibility complaints
Page 2 of 2: complaints 11 to 20 of 20, newest first, as owners wrote them.
Consumer activated power window on drivers side. Window fell down inside door, vehicle has been at dealer since then, parts were on back order.*ak
While rolling up the passenger side power window of my 2000 golf the window fell between the door panels. I live and generally drive alone, hence the passenger side window is rarely used. Since discovering your site and the consumeraffairs.com web site on jetta windows with repeated complaints about just this problem it is clear that vw has a problem that they need to acknowledge and fix.
Open window that was stuck caused rain to enter vehicle and made for unsafe driving conditions.
Passenger's side air bag has sank deep into panel and dented air bag cover. Dealer notified. *ak the passenger rear dome light was not working. The rear view mirror fell off. The consumer installed cd in the cd cartridge and a cd error came on the screen of the radio.
No summary listed for above vehicle.
Power window inoperable. Safety issue if window stuck in open position.
3 window regulators have failed and been replaced under 2year/24000mile warranty. This is obvious a faulty piece. Vw should recall the part because of the potential safety issues apparent should the window fall off of the track while at highway speeds.
Consumer hit the button to roll window up, window went up about 3 inches, then dropped down into door.
When riding into the sun dashboard causes a glare on windshield that obstructs 60% of driver's side visibility. Volkswagen has been contacted.
