I have to wonder what you ask this for. The 2012 is at least 6 years old and how would **all owners** reply to you anyway.

No, no they are not. I am confident in saying that because there is not one single thing on this planet that ALL people are satisfied with.

Consumer Reports includes a set of questions about owner satisfaction in its surveys. For 2012, the Passat earned a 3/5 rating for “Owner Satisfaction.” Not that swell. I’d link you to it, but you have to subscribe. So you’ll just have to trust me. 🙂
