This question has been asked several times, and I guess it should also be incorporated into the FAQ?

See 

http://phaseportrait.blogspot.com/2008/03/fixing-vim-latex-compiler-error.html

for more details. In short, you have to run a post-process script that sanitizes the error messages into a format that Vim likes, but the solution is not fool-proof. You should read the comments section as well. For example it is mentioned there that the solution will not work if the output contains for example overfull hbox warnings. In this case you can use the -file-line-error switch, but this only works for errors, not warnings. There is no one single perfect solution I think.
