I just pointed out an article that said many of the cars will be sold for parts. The article also said they will store the cars for some amount of time. Feel free to read it. Do you have an article that says anything different? Quote:

All 2.0 owners currently have the option for buyback or fix. VW has until 2018 to satisfy the terms of the settlement and present a fix or they must then offer to buy back 100% of the 2009-2015 2.0 vehicles. |

Well, sounds like VW is playing the delay game right now. Apparently a representative called the guy and they aren't taking the car back right now. Interestingly enough, they aren't saying no. Sounds like they are scrambling for a solution.

I still wonder about how much time this took and what you can sell a pile of scrap parts for.

Here's the problem with VW trying to deny him the buy back....
They have already accepted cars with missing parts, just not to this extreme. The precedent has been set - in favor of the owner. |

They may eventually have to take it back but with them in this buyback for $16 billion, spending $10k-$15k in lawyer costs to make an example of him and his life miserable will keep some part of the rest of the owners from doing the same. Other owners are less likely to do what he did based on VW's response today and if VW had taken it back without giving him a hassle others would do the same.

If this were to go back to Judge Bayer - VW opens themselves up to scrutiny regarding every missed time line for customer notification or missed deadline for acceptance and approval of submitted docs, or even penalty for every car the've accepted missing parts. |

Legal reason they don't have to take the car back. First 8 minutes explains it but really 5:00 - 8:00. VW took care of this in their legal agreement and are welcome to enforce it.
Requires NADA Clean Trade Value Not sure how to post Youtube video but here is the link https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YPawHTe0YWM Would love to be there when he realizes he is about to put it back together.

I uploaded the docs the first week the portal was available, then had to resend the gov ID because the copy was 'illegible'. I received the 'you can schedule your buy back' email in November (18th I think) - scheduled my appointment on the first available date (today). |
