Description of the problem	I purchased a 2008 volkswagen eos on 10/1/2007. About 1 month later i began hearing rattling in the convertible top when it was up. Today is 3/16/2008 and my vehicles has only 2900 miles. I've been unable to drive it due to the rattling noise. It has been brought into vw repair shop 8 times each time they thought it was fixed but when i took it the rattling always came back within a day or 2. I finally had it. They agreed. They voluntarily gave me a phone number to call to start arbitration and told me they would either buy back my vehicle or give me a new eos.
