Help!!!(OT) Passat Problems



Josh,
 Yes, there is a recall on the heater core... my '93 GLX had the
recall done just before I bought the car.

VW was tricky about this recall... they recalled only certain models,
but yet every car (in that time period) had the same heater core.
So, you *may* have to fight VWoA, but you CAN win... many have.

I'd call up the local dealer first, give 'em your VIN and they can
tell you if there are any open recalls on the car.

Good luck!

Ben
