I don't know if glad is the right word, but I'm glad that someone who actually works wrenching on cars thinks that VWs are garbage. I haven't had one, but I've had plenty of cousins and friends who have had them (in the 80's & 90's). My wife had a Jetta III when I first met her. From my limited experience, there was always something small going wrong with them. Maybe not fatal, but PITA. A door wouldn't open from inside or out. A CEL wouldn't extinguish. A starter would die, 2 months after the 3 year warranty expired. A brake caliper would stick. An interior door handle would come off in your hand. All fixable, but annoying. It was like those Revell Snap Tite plastic models you used to build as a kid. VW was/is the Snap Tite of the automotive world.
