After purchasing my vehicle 2019 jetta at the end of june, I had to have my transmission leak fixed and the transmission repaired for a large leak. It took over 2 wks to get the car back. Then for about a month now, the car has been running rough, not accelerating without a huge delay & jerking. It's like the car is in neutral when you try to step on the gas. The dealer said they have to send a rep out from volkswagen to inspect my vehicle and they have no idea how long that will take so I will have the loaner vehicle indefinitely. I called volkswagen customer care to open a case to see if I can get a buyback option because the dealer stated there is nothing more they can do at this point.

There is an issue with the transmission in the 2019 jettas (automatic). When driving in low RPM's between 25-30mph, there is a loud grinding sound coming from the car. This affects how you must drive. As someone else stated you must drive more aggressively to eliminate the sound. There are several reports of this with other jetta owners in my area. This happens constant. It is not an isolated event. I have report this to my dealership as well.
