I took the car in for the modification on Nov 29 2017 with 137K miles on it. I had the car towed in to the Dealership on Nov 29 2021 with 180K miles on it.
That is nearly four years and indeed less than 48K miles
But they will not honor the warranty
Volkswagen of America POLICY is that the warranty ends at Midnight the day before....
But the settlement says 4 years so they are essentially stealing one day which does not sound like much until $4000 is on the line.

Well, technically they are right. 4 years would be up, completed, over, on Nov.28. Like 2021 started on Jan.1 and was over on Dec. 31, not on Jan.1.
