No, but there were: Volkswagen set up a plant in Westmoreland, PA, to produce Rabbits (later Golfs) and Rabbit Pickups. The Pickup was the only Volkswagen ever designed in the United States. They still make these and sell them outside the Americas; in the rest of the world, this vehicle is called the Caddy. They couldn't call it that here, because Caddy is slang for Cadillac and VW would get sued. The US Volkswagen plant closed in 1988. Its problem was very simple: the cars it was making weren't popular enough in the US to dedicate a whole plant to, and they didn't have technology that would let them make more than one kind of car on the same line.
