That's the problem when service and car sales both are profit center. Both need to make money. Consumer die.


totally agree with takadanicklagi on this, it never bodes well for the brand when they split the service centres from the sales unit.

IMHO basically at this point VW is just selling off their old models at mad discounts then when something happens they quote you some stupid price to recover back some of the profits that were lost. So it's really up to your luck if you got a car in good condition which is technically unethical but not necessarily illegal.
