Doesn't quite seem like the whole story is being told.

If I was the OP I'd fight this tooth and nail and get a new car out of it.
The truthful story is not being told of course. Car manufacturers know every little part number which is in the vehicle and where the vehicle was sold.

Incidentally, does your vehicle have a Takata airbag? Was it replaced?

Mass media doesn't have a good track record in reporting real news. In this instance, there is nothing more compelling than national attention through consumer advocate at a nationally syndicated news show. You deserve a new car and VW will ask you to sign a non disclosure after a lengthy process. It will be worth it.
