Here would be the canned response i finally got back from VWoA today
[FONT="]Thank you for allowing us the opportunity to look into your request. We appreciate that you took the time to reach out to us and we’re sorry that you have been faced with a repair cost outside of warranty.[/FONT]
[FONT="]I truly appreciate the amount of time you have put into researching the coverage for the repairs needed for your Passat. After thorough research the repairs will not be covered as they are not covered under the Extended Emissions Warranty.[/FONT]
[FONT="]I understand this decision may be disappointing. If you have any additional questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to give me a call. I can be reached at 800-822-8987; when prompted, press “9” and dial 43802. You can also reply to this email.[/FONT]
[FONT="]Sincerely,[/FONT]
