when did the VWs turn the corner on elec problems?

[robfilms]

i have 3 different friends with passat wagons and each had nothing but headaches with everything from electric window risers, faulty a/c systems, bad wiring to/from headlights. 2 of the 3 had their engines replaced by vw (after months of haggling). i would be hard pressed to put a used passat wagon on my short list of interesting cars.

ymmv

be well
