What a mess this is turning into. The car has been at the dealership almost as much as I've had it over the past 6-8 months or so. At this point they've replaced the entire fuel system, tried blaming it on a "bad battery", even tore the engine down and claimed it was because there was something wrong with no.3 rod which they replaced, then tried blaming it on "bad fuel", and this last time they claimed the dead radio had a slight electrical draw that was causing a delay in the fuel pump kicking on...
The best part is two days after I dropped it off the last time the warranty expired. So, even though this is a long running, we'll documented problem, they're telling me anything else would be all on me!
I just picked it up on Friday after work, drove it to work on Saturday, it sat Sunday, went to start it this morning, and surprise surprise, it cranked for a while before finally starting. At this point I just want to be done with it, but I can't just sell it to someone else and not feel like I'm screwing them over the VW is doing me.
I did already start a claim through VW customer service, which was supposed to call me back last Tuesday... I'm going to call the dealer today when they open, tell them to print me off the report from every visit, and the get back ahold of that VW rep, tell him he has today to call me back, or my next steps are filing BBB complaint, and consulting and attorney. I either want it fixed, or feel like they should buy it back, hell at this point I don't even care about trying to get top market value, just pay it off!
