None. My first real car that I bought that wasn't a hand me down or a junket. Had no problems with it so far, engine - brakes - nothing. The oil changes are usually more expensive because it is German / something about it is different so it costs more but I’d rather pay a little extra for an oil change than have it break down and buy a new engine. Love this car though, comfy, spacious, smooth, and haven't had any problems yet and I am at 70.000 miles.

Volkswagens run forever and hold their value. It is a great car.
I have had this car for eight years and it is still very stylish and is dependable.

My Volkswagen is unreliable.
My vehicle has been very unreliable. There’s been many issues with the engine. If I take it to a mechanic for one issue, another issue arises. I have had to replace the gas tank, fuel pump, oil lines, battery, and practically the transmission. It has its good days but overall, I have been unsatisfied with how it works and I would love nothing more than a new vehicle that can actually get me places.

2010 - Volkswagen passat s2.
The car has not had many problems even as it has aged. The wheels bearings went out at 130,000 miles and that was the only major repair I have made during the ten year I have owners the car. It is a very spendy car maintenance wise any preventative oil changes, brakes etc. Are expensive and you can only take Volkswagens to certain places because they require special tools and parts/fluids. The car handles really well with the weight and low center of gravity it can make its way through a few inches of snow with ease. Does not however should not be stored outside. With age I have noticed that it starts harder when it is below freezing outside, it will also have warning lights come on when you first turn it on but they will go out after awhile. This only happens when temps are below freezing.

The pros and cons of a Volkswagen Passat
My car has a turbo engine which is good for acceleration, It's reasonably comfortable, but we had a number of problems in the first few years of ownership.

I love my car! Comfortable, reliable, and stylish.
My car has been reliable, good on gas, comfortable, and cute ever since I bought it! No major repairs have been needed so far, and it is very reliable. My favorite features are the heated seats, they make the winter cold so much more bearable! I also love the power liftgate and the sunroof. This vehicle has treated me very well. Take care of it and it will take care of you.

Comfortable, reliable sedan. Perfect for families.
Very safe, 100% reliable. Seats five comfortably. Rear seats fold so you can haul longer items.

Volkswagen passat has been an excellent vehicle for me.
This is a very good sturdy car. It has roomy rear seating and a spacious trunk. There are many small useful compartments. My only complaint is the level of wind noise while driving. It can be a bit deafening at highway speeds. All in all I enjoying this vehicle very much.

2010 Volkswagen passat- dependable, durable, and drives great!
I have a 2010 Volkswagen passat. I am the second owner of this vehicle which I purchased in 2018. It currently has approximately 160,000 miles. I have had no major issues or problems with this vehicle. It drives smooth and is very reliable. The passat uses premium gas but it gets very good gas mileage. I would highly recommend this vehicle.

Overall great
Bought in 2017 with 64k miles. Comfortable, not sporty but has more than enough power. Timing chain was replaced before failure, other than that no major issues. Gets great mileage and has decent tech for its age.

Timing chain issues
Purchased this vehicle in 2015 when it was 5 years old with 30k miles. I didn't have many complaints besides it being bad in snow but that was to be expected. In 2017 it decided not to start anymore. The timing chain broke. I had it towed to a Volkswagen dealer who told me this was an issue with this particular year and model. They (volkswagen) would pay part of it and I had to pay the rest even though it was an issue with the way it was made by the company. 1600 dollars and 4 months later I got my vehicle back. The dealership wouldn't give me a rental because I did not purchase the car there and it took them 4 months to finish my car due to the overwhelming amount of 2010 passats (which I noticed seemed to all be silver sedans) they had to replace timing chains on. My car is now at 91k miles. It sounds a bit rough but is still running decent. I guess my complaint is more about Volkswagen and less about my passat.

Great performance. _great gas mileage. No major issues with the car in 2 years.
Great car very comfortable with lots of space. Have had it for almost 2 years and no major issues so far. The sound system is great and the Bluetooth never does not work. The backup camera is also good however the car does not have any sensors which makes it a little difficult to know how close you are to other cars or objects.

I have a 4 door white 2010 Volkswagen.
The performance of the vehicle is amazing. I love how smooth the car drives. I have a family of 5 and it fits everyone comfortable with enough space. My favorite feature is the seat warmer during the winter time. I don't spend much on gas which is a plus. I have drove this car in between states and have had no problems whatsoever. Overall I think this car is great if you have a small family its spacious for its size and runs pretty well.

Good for everyday driver, not a high mileage vehicle.
Volkswagen makes very high performing vehicles. The maintenance on them because of this is more expensive, and any repairs will be very spendy. Other than that if it is your everyday driver and you travel only a short distance they have little issues. But I put 70,000 miles on in 3 years and I started having to replace more, wheel bearings, springs, router, breaks, seals etc.

My vehicle is amazing and one of the best cars I have had in a long time.
My car does really well in the road. I drive a Volkswagen passat and had the same vehicle for over 5 years. It is excellent on gas and I love the leather seats. The car for only take premium gas but the performance of the car is worth the gas prices. Also, the car is amazing in the mileage. I would definitely recommend this car to anyone that loves foreign cars, loves cars that is great in gas, and loves cars with good mileage.

Volkswagen Passat great car at a great price.
Great car overall. Rides great and has great pick up and acceleration. The interior is spacious and easy to maintain. The radio and navigation system is great and easy to use. Bluetooth makes it easy to listen to your favorite songs right from your phone.

The 2010 Volkswagen passat review. Easy to read and great insight.
My car is awesome because it has lots of trunk space and seating area. It runs great on gas. Parts to fix the car are expensive. The car looks nice on the exterior and is new. I find that my rear light go out a lot but are an easy fix since my model is older.
Lisa L
on July 21, 2020
That this vehicle uses premium gas.
Like the room inside the vehicle, driving the vehicle is easy, the look of the vehicle and how I can fill the back with all sort of things since it is a Passat wagon. What I do not like is the repair costs even a oil change is more than most cars and it uses premium gas only.

Safe and reliable vehicle.
Very reliable car, I love the leather seats and adjustable reclining. I wish that I had a rear windshield wipers and my phone would connect to the Bluetooth music player. I do not know if it is because it is a later model or just technology problems. I do feel very safe in my vehicle and I feel in control when I drive.

VW passat 2.0t -awesome car.
Reliable used car. Very comfortable and has turbo so it gets up and goes. Love the automatic all windows and digital information. The turbo is great for getting on qd and off the highway in a busy city. Good gas mileage. Sunroof is great. Very responsive steering. Easy to drive. Doors will not lock while key is inside of car. Heated mirrors. Voice command.

My favorite feature is the storage capacity when hauling a variety of things.
The car has performed beautifully with minimum maintenance. I still drive it quite a lot with total reliability. The features of the car are great although technology has gotten a lot better in the last few years and it's likely that I'll replace it soon.

Volkswagen passat is a great car, really comfort, but has some cons.
It is really comfort I like this vehicle. Comfort seats and insides. Conditioner is working really good. But the problem is I spend a lot of money on this vehicle. It does not have the Bluetooth or any other features to connect your phone to listen music or something else.

Great car expensive gas and repairs.
Volkswagen passat is a great heavy car, well center, drives well and quietly problems are it takes premium gas and seems to rust near wheel hubs quickly especially in blizzardy cold and icy north east repairs are costly. Gas mileage decent, enjoy foreign cars we'll built German.

There's plenty of space for those that don't want to go for a full SUV or van.
It's a VW Passat Komfort Wagon. Nice and roomy, easy to transport my dog and bikes. It's not very fun to drive though.

Comfortable drive smoothly and powerful.
I don’t have any issue about my passat. If I have problem the computer will tell me what it need. If you see any orange light come on pay attention!! Take to the mechanic shop and they will take care of that and you don’t have any problem.Take care of your car.

It is a very reliable car that's great for work, school or travel.
I love the great gas mileage I get on my vehicle. I travel a lot and my car is great on gas and wear and tear. Plus, there were a lot of features that were standard on the car that I just love like satellite radio, heated leather seats and a sunroof.

Economic and beautiful car
No problems, everything works perfectly, very economical and easy to clean, easy to drive and control and it has enough space. The color is beautiful it is black and we got it with a good price. The gas is not expensive and we can save money using economic car like that

Family Friendly but Can be Costly to Maintain
I love how well our car fits our family of four. Car seats are a little snug against front seats when rear-facing but the hatchback is large and can fit a double stroller, as well as suitcases, toys, etc. On long trips and family vacations. If I could change anything, I wish that repairs weren't so expensive and that it was easier to find a traditional mechanic who could work on it rather than just the dealership.

2012 Volkswagen passat is a great car.
My 2012 white Volkswagen passat squeaks now... But it is strong and it made it to Florida and back within 5 days (from Connecticut). It has pretty good gas mileage and comfortable seats and it will last you a really long time if you actually take care of it.

2014 Sedan Volkswagen Passat
The car itself is very comfortable. The main issues I have with my car is after the lease, the parts become very expensive to buy. Maintenance is easy but would wish that Volkswagen offered longer warranty. The metal brakes are great but wish they would not squeak often.

This car can travel 100 mph without feeling like it.
This is an elite vehicle as most German engineering is. As long as you get the scheduled maintenance you should have no probs. Now we bought it used by with low mileage It was already driven 8 yrs when we got it. Most of its life it was in the garage or under a carport. We have neither but it's old enough now and still not faded. It is a turbo engine, only 4 cylinders but a lot of torque!

Volkswagen passat 2010. Love it but it has problems just like every other car.
Parts can expensive but they last. Cheap parts break quicker. Can't replace parts yourself unless you know how to work on German made cars. The computer sensor in the tires is off so tires are lower than what it should be. And can only be taken to Volkswagen car dealership.

One interesting thing about my car is that the steering wheel is easy to grab.
The radio is not that modern but it drives smooth. The car is very low and on the smaller side, which can make it hard to be seen by bigger vehicles. The leather seats clean easily, but they get very warm because they are black. The back windows do not roll all the way down, handy for children.

Passat 2010 review. Great car. Water pump & a timing chain.
I loved the car, but this years engine has had problems with the water pump and the timing chain. Otherwise I love this vehicle! The interior has lasted forever. Everything has stayed in perfect working condition for me and I have 175k miles on it. The turbo is also a fun feature.

Requires a lot of maintenance but at the same time is looks and runs great!
My 2010 silver Volkswagen Passat looks great, runs smooth, included leather seats, is also provided with seat warmers and does well on gas. Unfortunately, parts of my foreign car are expensive, along with tons of maintenance required. The car has died on me twice in the last year 12-18 months, which makes me question what's really under the hood. With that being said, the car is not as reliable as I would like it to be. However, I do enjoy driving my 2010 Volkswagen Passat.

Great car, but has troubles sometimes.
I love my car but I frequently have engine troubles including coolant leaks, ignition troubles, electronic malfunctions, water sensor malfunctions, and electronic emergency parking brake errors. It is a comfortable car, though, and has all of the bells and whistles I like. It is fast too.

My car has made it to Tennessee and back, as well as Florida with no problems.
Clock spring is broken and needs a recall, car overall is a great car. Gets good mileage and good for long trips. Does have airbag issues which I'm not sure how common that is. Comfort Wise the car is great, it has an in dash touch screen Bluetooth and phone, all black leather. Very comfy and roomy on the inside. Headlights are very difficult to change on it and parts can be expensive.
