Mileage: 40,000 approx
Engine Type: 4 Cylinder ?
Hi There,
My neighbor moved in about 3 months ago. After a month, her car began to smell like ammonia inside. I have sat in her car and smelled it and it is strong.
She is blaming my cats. She says that they are spraying the tires and under carriage of her car because she transports her dog in the car.
I am not so sure because:
1) There is another dog owner in our p-lot and they have never approached me about this issue.
2) I struggled with a cat pee smell in my own vehicle (1998 Dodge Dakota) for 5 years before I broke down and spent $1,500.00 to get the dash pulled, the carpet replaced, and the problem fixed (The work was by Toyota Pre-Owned in Ft Myers,FL but it only lasted 2 years and the carpet crystals are back - another story).
3) I own a portable black light that came with the product Urine Gone. I have repeatedly checked the tires and undercarriage of her car and do not see anything.
Can you let me know if this is a problem that other VW Jetta wagon owners have had?
The owner refuses to get the mechanical aspect of this issue checked due to "cost" but she is demanding that I keep my indoor/outdoor cats inside and pay for her vehicle to be cleaned.
