yep its official People who totaled their cars sometime between september 18th 2015 and june 28th 2016 get the shaft again!!!
WE lost value on the car for the totaled amount due to VW TDI prices being deflated and now officially per teh court order "Eligible Sellers are also
“any owner (1) who acquired his, her, or its Eligible Vehicle on or before September 18, 2015, (2)
whose Eligible Vehicle was totaled, and (3) who consequently transferred title of his, her, or its
vehicle to an insurance company after September 18, 2015, but before June 28, 2016.” (Id.) "
Basicly if you totaled your car and the title was transfered to the insurance comapny (required for them to pay you for the car) you are classified as a seller and get half the settlement amount EVEN THOUGH the car inst eligable for receiving the other half of the settlement due to it being totaled. So we lost money on the value due to dieselgate and then we get half of the settlement taken away too WOW thank you VW
Now I'm really hoping that the 3.0 isn't easily fixable and they offer buybacks... I will sell back my 2010 Q7 and go buy some other brand of car.
