No I dont have a 2005 jetta but I do have a 2006 jetta value edition which last week I discovered the brake lights were staying on. Is there anyone I can contact to maybe get the 2006 jetta added to the recall?

Do you drive a 2005 VW JETTA?

Just because a car has been recalled does not mean it is not a reliable car. Millions of cars get recalled every year. Recalls often involve problems that are rare but could cause a serious problem if they occur. So the risk to any given driver is often remote, even though there may be a few high-profile incidents traced to the problem.
