Just wondering if anyone has had recent experience turning in a wrecked TDI for buyback.
Last winter, before the fix was announced, the rule seemed to be as long as the car could make it into the dealer parking lot under it's own power, it would be accepted.
Our 2013 was in a freeway pileup on Friday. It still seems to run and drive ok, but the front, and especially the back are mangled pretty good. We had decided to keep it and maybe have the fix done before the wreck.
I called vw's claim number yesterday, and didn't get a clear answer. He said it would depend on what the individual rep decided.
It seems unreasonable that we would have to get it repaired for acceptance, only to be sent to a crusher.
The car has 116,000 on it and is in otherwise good condition.
Thanks!
