| Description of the problem | Last month the passenger side back rear door stopped locking, even after pressing the lock button. We took it to the shop and paid $400+ to have it fixed. A month later, the driver side rear door decides to stop locking. One door is understandable, but the fact that both doors stopped locking within two months of each other is pretty suspicious. Sounds like a solid case of negligence on volkswagens part. |
