Expert Reply:
According to our research, a 2011 Volkswagen Jetta with an automatic transmission can not be flat-towed. You will need to check your owner's manual or with your dealership to verify this.
You can use a tow dolly like part # RM-2050-1. The dolly has lights and electric brakes.
You will need a brake controller in the towing vehicle to operate the brakes on the dolly. I recommend the P2 brake controller, part # 90885. This is our most popular because it is easy to install and operate.
