Nothing like an "ice peened" car. How do you sell off 28,000 hail damaged cars?

Parts for 28,000 non hail damaged cars.

You would have thought VW would have learned after the same thing happened at Chattanooga.

Better check the build dates on any new Wolfsburg-built car

Didn't Mythbusters prove dimpling improved fuel economy by 11% vs smooth surface? I bet VW tries to sell them under some new name to bank on the mpg increase lol

They can market them as Golf ball models.
