I want FREE HAM!!
I have been trying not to post this, for the slight hope it might actually work out. I am just so fed up with the whole thing.
I just sent this letter to VW, hopefully someone cares enough to respond. I just need to vent. The thing that gets me is if the car is not done tomorrow, I am gone for 2.5 weeks and the car will have to stay there all that time, which I am not comfortable with.
To whom it may concern,
I purchased my vehicle (2007 Rabbit) at Capilano Audi/VW in North Vancouver in February of 2007. The car was great for nearly two years until recently when I had to bring it into the dealer (Langley VW, Langley BC) for some electrical issues I had been having. I took the car there three seperate times and left the car there all day for two different issues. The fourth time I went (to repair the second issue) was February 19th. Today is March 11th, the car is still there. I have also agreed to pay $600+ out of my own pocket for issues the dealer says are my doing, which I really do not understand. The dealer cannot pinpoint the problem with the car. I have been hearing the same story for over two weeks now about trying to diagnose the issue. They have had a "head Vancouver area tech" look at the car three times, who also cannot figure it out. I do feel the employees at the dealer are doing their best, doing a good job and being professional, but this is beside the point. I do not feel it is fair to have to go put up with this kind of thing on a new car. We buy new cars to avoid these stuations. I realize problems happen, but a total of 24 full days and counting for a car to be in the shop for one issue is ridiculous. I was very happy with the car up until this point. As and much as I like the VW/Audi brand I must say it is going to be hard to buy another after this experience. I also feel it is unfair to be paying a car payment on a car that I am not able to drive.
If anybody can talk to me about this sitution, it would be greatly appreciated. I can be reached at 604-961-xxxx anytime, or at the email address provided.
Thank you.
