The vehicles offered for sale in these cases are *NOT* being sold as “scrap” or “parts-only” lots.
Isn't the intent of this settlement, for an eligible owner to receive a restitution payment for their damaged or “totaled” vehicle, because the vehicle is considered non-repairable (permanently decommissioned for on-road use)?
With the exception of a small pool of former eligible owners, restitution payments are not issued unless the vehicle has been bought back or an approved emissions modification has been applied.
Shouldn’t the insurance and/or auction companies hold some sort of responsibility in permanently decommissioning these particular vehicles by “destructing” or returning them to VW, rather than reselling as a salvage title (repairable) vehicle?
