My 2009 Volkswagen Jetta has always been a reliable and dependable vehicle. The exterior has held up well in the summer heat of Florida with exception of peeling of clearcoat on one vertical window post. Interior-wise, the dash panel is layed out well and accessing all controls is straightforward. The vehicle has cruise control which is excellent for long highway trips. There is ample headroom and adjustable seats to allow lowering and raising of seat height. The steering wheel tilts to allow adjustment to correspond to seat height adjustments. The rear seats have A/C vents installed in the center console to allow for additional cooling. The leg room could be longer for the rear seat occupants but overall is satisfactory. The headliner needs to be more durable since it is starting to become detached.

I have owned a VW Jetta for seven years now; all in all, this is a nice little vehicle. It has reliable transportation with a decent mpg rating.
