Is the 1999 Volkswagen Passat a safe car?

I'm sixteen and I just got my first car, a 99 Volkswagen Passat. Just wanted to know if any of you knew how safe it is. Thanks!

It is a phenomenally safe car. In fact the passat has the 3rd lowest deathrate.

Aside from the fact that the amount of "car" or the size of the hood has absolutely nothing to do with safety. It is how the crumple zone is engineered. Force is what kills people in collisions, period.

The passat is probably one of the safest cars in the market at the moment.

Please look into:

- Timing belt replace (and water pump and associated goodies etc) at 60k miles or immediately if it has more miles than that and never been replaced.

- If you have the 1.8T please use only synthetic oil. PLEASE!!!!

- Look into transmission/coolant/engine flush. Really easy DIY if you follow the walkthroughs on the website I will post below.

- Maintain your car yourself, and like the devil, and you will have an awesome machine. You'll love this car, and will never go anything but German, if you do keep her up.

get the A4, yes the passat and A4 are similar in design, however, the A4 is more luxurious and in most cases sporty.
since this is in the audi section, be prepared to have alot of Audi answers. But seriously, consider this... there is a reason Audi costs alot more than VW. So go with the Audi, you will not be disappointed.

Hey guys! I was looking for my first car and I found Volkswagen Passat GLS Sedan online.So, What do you think?

It is 2000, 4 cylinders, 145000 mileage, Automatic, and it looks pretty from the pictures and it is priced for 4999$. Any suggestions? Is it worth of it's price and is it a good choice?

2000 VW passat is on the Consumer reports list of Used cars to AVOID

passat 4cyl 98-99, 01-03,06-07
passat V6 99-03, 06

this means owners have reported these cars costing more to own and needing more repairs than others.

Occasional problems on this vehicle are failures of the Engine, Timing Belt, Mass Air Flow (MAF) Sensor (4 cylinder engines only), the Ignition Power Stage (1.8L engine only), and the Water Pump. Problems with the Engine are caused when the engine oil gels. When proper maintenance schedules for oil changes are followed, oil gelling should not occur. The cost to repair the Engine is estimated at $5,899.00 for parts and $858.00 for labor. The cost to replace the Timing Belt is estimated at $62.00 for parts and $195.00 for labor. The cost to replace the MAF Sensor is estimated at $380.00 for parts and $58.50 for labor. Volkswagen has issued a warranty extension due to the high number of MAF Sensor failures. MAF Sensors are now warranted for 7 years, 70,000 miles on 1999 through 2001 models. The cost to replace the Ignition Power Stage is estimated at $125.00 for parts and $52.00 for labor. The cost to replace the Water Pump is estimated at $133.15 for the parts and $234.00 for labor on the 1.8L engine, and $151.35 for parts and $338.00 for labor on the 2.8L engine. All prices are estimates based on $65.00 per flat rate hour and do not include diagnostic time or any applicable sales tax.
