10 to 12 days appears to be the norm.How long does it take VW to pay off the loan on a car that is bought back? The FTC order indicates it's supposed to take 5 working days, but the timelines seem illusory.
Cool beans, that's where ours came from and is probably going back to. That or Oakland. They've got a full temp lot on Lakeshore at the 580 onramp, but I haven't investigated whether it's buybacks or inventory. They lost their big main lot to a developer just at the buybacks were starting.My just dropped mine off at Team VW in Hayward, CA. Got about $500 more than was on the initial offer for low mileage. Receipt email came while I was still at the desk. Gonna miss that car.
They're going to have a record of who has the roadside assistance. Have your VIN handy, call 'em up (1-800-411-6688), and schedule your tow.Quick question -- if i want to use the VW roadside assistance to tow my TDI into the dealership next week, what are the details of making that happen? I registered, got the goodwill cards, and remember receiving paperwork regarding the complimentary roadside assistance, but I cannot find that paperwork now.
Any help is appreciated!

You avoided the $700 frozen door lock TSB.Turned mine in today. No problems and a painless event. The car was mad at me for turning him in. Never had a problem but today when I was getting ready to drive the 30miles to the dealer, the passengers front door wouldn't latch. Of course it was 7 degrees out. Tied it close with a rope. Turn in guy didn't care. On the way out the head salesman introduced himself and handed me a carry bag with goodies in it including a certificate for $ 1500 to be used if I chose to buy a new or used car from their multi-franchise organization. Will miss the car but not the worry as to when one of the maintenance time bombs would go off.
Tell them you haven't driven it in a few months and that the breaks were bad when you stopped driving it. They will pick you up for a reason like that. Just don't tell them you just want a pickup. Let them know you NEED a pickup and give them a good excuse why hope this helpsQuick question -- if i want to use the VW roadside assistance to tow my TDI into the dealership next week, what are the details of making that happen?

Since it seems that a decent amount of people have turned their cars in, that things should start getting easier for them and people that have been waiting should see quicker movement, perhaps.
