The driver's side window stopped working. The problem was traced back to a faulty wiring harness in the door hinge. This is a very common vw issue, and many other online complaints reference a wire harness that is too short. I repaired the severed wires with butt connectors. After the repair was completed, the airbag light came on. I inspected the whole airbag system (connectors, wiring, fuses, etc.) to no avail. The airbag light is still illuminated on the dashboard. Again, others have complained of this same issue when fixing a vw's window (i.E., fix the window and the airbag light illuminates). The two issues should not be connected, and this is a major safety concern for me.

I have a 2006 jetta that i just got from a friend, they stated that it needed some sensors like the maf replaced. I spent the 39.99 and bought the carfax report as well to ensure it was a good car. Everything was great until i drove it for the first time longer than 20 or 30 minutes. I started to experience the transmission slipping when it got hot and the gears not shifting. As i began to look up these symptoms to verify what the issue was i ran into some very concerning statements. Multiple sources say the cars are known for having bad transmissions/ valve body issues. Hundreds of people driving 2006 vw jetta 2.5 liter automatic cars were having the same issue with the hard shifting and slipping and some were worse than that. My car only has 103,000 miles on it and many of these other vehicles were between 75k and 140k. Having to have entire transmissions replaced. I have not had any issues when i'm on the highway and not needing to switch gears but stop and go traffic is impossible to drive in. It discourages me that so many people are having this issue and a recall has never been issued for it. There is no warranty anymore . Multiple mechanics have looked at the car and immediately stated that the 09g valve cover that vw used was notorious for these issues and they are still pretty common.
