It just so happens that the creator of the site, however he may feel about VW, had no problems turning it completely over to a VW enthusiast who has had no problems with his car, either. Well, except the ones he caused himself from performance tuning. <span style=""font-size: smaller;"">Post edited 12/06/05 10:01 AM by paultakeda</span> God I hate V/W!!! – You will also note, DDW12Phaeton, that I am also a minority here.

This site was created by a very disgruntled VW owner and as a way of expressing that dissatisfaction, as well as providing a forum for other customers who feel they have been abused by VW, either its product or its customer support or its dealers (or any of the possible combinations between them). Drivers being screwed isn't derisive when the stories reflect a mentality by VW and/or its representatives when dealing with these customers. You did not experience this, and therefore you do not feel this way. Put on a helmet and slap the visor down: you are in the minority here. Get used to it, don't take it personally. By the way, VAG means the Volkswagen Automotive Group. You are thinking of something else. God I hate V/W!!! – So you had a great experience, good.

A friend of ours has had his Touareg for a while now, still no problems. Yes our tire pressure monitor is going off, but that is because he have winter tires on the car. It will be reset tomorrow. VAG????? hahaha, I only wish. But you are not even close. But what does that have to do with anything? God I hate V/W!!! – You know, I would agree with you but this on our Phaeton, nothing happened.

But I also deeply hope that someone in VW also checks it out. It's not hard to find, considering it's #1 on the Google search for ""VW sucks"". And if they are aware of the site and the posts, then I certainly hope they take them seriously. Sure, much of it can be considered pure and simple hatred, but there are a lot of valid points in those posts concerning build quality, recall/warranty policy, dealership customer service issues, etc. No, this site can't make VW go belly up (and I have stated as such plenty times before), but it'd be nice to know they pay attention.

I would not have posted about derisive speech if it hadn't been brought to me. Believe me, I have had a lot worse criticism in my life. Besides, I've been a minority all my life. I realize there was a post by a fellow enthusiast that was innapropriate. I cannot change that, but I do apologize. In terms of VAG, I have been thinking of the people in charge; Volkswagen AG. But I do honestly think that many car companies have sites just like this, and just because people are posting their opinions will not make Volkswagen go belly up. The company is aware of the problems and is working on them.

Just got a V8 Touareg. It's sweet. And I have considered other opinions. I see them on consumer reports, but I know quite a few people that work for this company and they are good people. So hearing that these same people are out to screw over everyone that buys a Volkswagen to me is not right. These people do what they can and are trying to change. It is not only Volkswagen that has problems. All companies do. My friend has a new Durango with 1200 miles on it and it has already broken down 3 times. I would never say that the people of DaimlerChrysler are doing this on purpose. By the way. Drivers FOCKED and drivers screwed. Derisive That is how I feel. <span style=""font-size: smaller;"">Post edited 12/05/05 11:38 PM by DDW12Phaeton</span> God I hate V/W!!! – I feel great. Just got a V8 Touareg. It’s sweet.
