I'm not too terribly worried about reliability. I'm only 7400 miles in and have plenty of warranty left. I've have multiple VW's and one Audi B5 S4 and I've put over 100k on all of them with minimal problems. I still have my 2011 Mk6 wagon that my dads currently driving. Only times it had to go to the dealer was a latch that broke a couple years ago that cost $250...and at 40k it went for a MAP sensor recall.
Last VW I sold was a 2011 Jetta sedan that had about 77k on the clock. That has been solid too. Just basic maintenance. Sold it in 2017...never even changed the brake pads.
From my own experiences...my past three VW's all have been rock solid reliable.
