GOOD AFTERNOON FROM GERMANY! LOOKING FORWARD TO GET MY ORDERS (MILITARY) TO NORFOLK, VA, NEXT YEAR. INTENTION IS TO BRING ALONG ONE OR BOTH OF OUR CARS, BOTH VOLKSWAGEN 2.4 LITER DIESEL ENGINES, STANDARD "GERMAN" EDITION. THE QUESTION IS WHETHER THERE ARE MAJOR PROBLEMS TO GET A U.S. LICENSE FOR THOSE CARS, AND IF, WHAT WOULD HAVE TO BE CHANGED BEFORE ENTERING THE U.S. . MAYBE THERE4S A LEAFLET CONTAINING ALL THE INFO I NEED, PLEASE SEND IT TO THE APPROPRIATE ADDRESS GIVEN ABOVE. THANKS, FRANK REININGHAUS, LIEUTENANT COMMANDER GERMAN NAVY. *AK

Reading this record

No unusual pattern of severe incidents in the complaint record.

Complaint counts track how many cars were sold and how long they have been on the road as much as they track quality. A common model from 2013 has had a decade to accumulate reports; a rare one from last year has not. The signal worth weighing is in the severity columns, in whether the same component keeps appearing, and in whether the manufacturer eventually opened a recall for it.

Most recent recall on file: none. Source: NHTSA Office of Defects Investigation.
