I just got my offer on Monday, July 31st. Is there a deadline to submit the offer back to VW? I want to keep the Jetta for a few more months (likely until Nov/Dec 2017).
Thanks.
Thanks.
Good idea. I think I'll accept, schedule, and reschedule if I need too. Thanks.You can accept the offer and schedule an appointment, I believe up to three months out. Then, if you want to keep the car longer you can reschedule the appointment. I have rescheduled the appointment on my 2014 Jetta twice so far with no problem, pushing it back three months each time.
I was hoping as well to delay until July of next year to save some money buying a used 2017 car. Sadly, my Jetta has 2 broken springs making it unsafe to drive. The repair cost $2k.I'm holding out till summer of next year. I figure I can save at least $5000 in car payments and save 15K miles on a new car. I've already registered, but I haven't done anything more than that.
Or you can accept the offer and just not schedule an appointment. Why schedule an appointment you know you won't keep?You can accept the offer and schedule an appointment, I believe up to three months out.
Because you can never know for sure what the future holds. I like having a documented return date on both my and VW's calendar, which I can change if desired.Or you can accept the offer and just not schedule an appointment. Why schedule an appointment you know you won't keep?
I would do the exact same. I'm praying nothing happens between now and the time I sell it back. If I can get one more winter out of it, I'll be happy. Currently having an issue with the door latches not catching when its hot outside. Really weird. Once the doors cool down, the doors latch. Dealer wants $600 a door to fix. Unreal. Another month or so and it will start getting cooler out anyhow. Not worth fixing. But very aggravating.I was hoping as well to delay until July of next year to save some money buying a used 2017 car. Sadly, my Jetta has 2 broken springs making it unsafe to drive.

I have turned in three diesels, one with the date rescheduled twice, and have not had VW cancel any of the appointments. And Doug, the VW turn-in temp hire, has become my BFF, so by continuously rescheduling the appointment for my last TDI I am keeping Doug gainfully employed!And what does that "documented return date" do for you? It's not like they can't cancel it at will, and there have been threads here where that's happened.
