Any suggestions appreciated here....I have a 2001 VW Passat V6. In March of this year I had water in the back passenger seat area that was due to a defective pollen filter. Carpet was replaced and everything else fixed..In May of this year I had water in the back driver side due to clogged drains..I know I have lots of luck here..Anyway, this time they are replacing the comfort control module, wiring harness and new carpet again.. I want to get rid of this car. I know it'll all be fixed, but I just can't deal with the thought of this happening again. I filed a claim this second time and insurance is covering it. My question is what are my chances of getting a good trade in value? I am assuming this will show up on the VIN check, and I also want to be honest with the dealership I do business with. Since everything is replaced, will I still get a crappy trade in? It only has 64000 miles on it. Everything else is in near perfect condition.
