2013 Volkswagen Passat Usados en Venta

I bought a 2013 Passat about a year ago. I had done a lot of research prior to buying my car, and felt it was a good car to own and rely on. I have not been disappointed. I love the zippy speed of my car, and its surprisingly comfortable on long road trips. It has a sporty feel, not just a typical family sedan. Although I would like to have bought a Passat with a few more upgraded options, such as leather seats and a sunroof, I still love my car. The salesman at the dealership were so helpful and nice. They put no pressure on me to buy my car.

The vehicle performs well, but it has given me a few problems. Once it stopped in the middle of the road for no discernible reason. After a few minutes of trying to re-start, it finally did. I took it back to the dealer, where comprehensive diagnostic tests were done, and no problems were found -- I'm just left hoping it doesn't happen again. There have also been problems with Bluetooth. When I'm on my phone, sometimes I will cut out and the person on the other end can't hear me. This started up after I owned the car for about a year, so I assumed it was a problem with my relatively newer phone, but after getting the phone replaced, the problem persisted (although it generally resolves itself quickly and doesn't happen too frequently). The car also accelerates noticeably louder than I think it should. Those are the biggest cons. As for pros, it is a strong, safe vehicle; it has lots of trunk space; shock-absorbency is great; it is comfortable, and it is overall very reliable. Fuel efficiency seems to be pretty good (although not as good as my previous car, which was not a VW). Another con is the price; however, I believe that you pay what you get for, and I think that (for the most part) I did.

One of the first things I noticed when I first test drove the car is how quiet, yet powerful, the engine is. I could listen to music on the freeway and not have to turn up the volume. In addition, the self-opening trunk is so helpful when you're shopping and have your hands full and can't open the trunk. One thing I do not like is the digital display of the mileage for a trip. It is hard to figure out. I do not know how to reset the mileage counter. Also, the brakes are just a little bit too sensitive or my taste. The remaining miles on a tank is also very inaccurate. It can jump down by 20 -30 miles in available gas when you maybe only drove 10. And it can also swing the other way, depending on if you're driving on the freeway or not.
