Purchased a 2003 GTI VW Certified (45, 000KM) from them in April of 08 for almost $25, 000.00 by the time I paided for the taxes, etc... When I purchased the car the sales person "Jamie" told me the car had been in a minor accident and that it was less the $1000.00 worth of damage. The pervious owners did not put it through insurance and paid cash for the repairs. Less then a year later I am having roof leaking problems and the air bag sensor light is coming on. I have had the car into the dealership and needless to say they say there is nothing wrong with the air bags and that there was nothing wrong with the roof. I have taken my car to another well known autobody shop and they have told me that they can tell without taking the car apart (body panels etc...) that both doors have been replaces and both rear quarter panels have been fixed. To me this is a little more then $1000.00 worth of damage eh ??? I have ended up having to take my car to another dealership a hour away (Hillcrest) to get the problems with the air bag sensor resolved. Needless to say I know I am not the only person out there that has had this problem with Valley VW. DONT BUY A USED CAR FROM VALLEY VOLKSWAGON !!! They will say anything to make you buy a car from them...
Now I have had to take Legal Action against them to get some kind of reinbursments for the shamshed car I purchased from them :( Why should a comsumer have to do this ???? There should be some law out there to make dealerships liable if they mislead you when you purchase a car from them.
If you have any advice/ other complaints against Valley VW please for me feel free to e mail me [email protected].
