Re: New polo rline. Heater matrix cover cracked from factory. Poor service by vw and vw assist

Update after allot of arguements. The car is going back into the dealership 6th sept to fix the damage they caused and to hopefully repair fully. I am still pushing for a replacement car and have had to report them to the ombudsman so it’s in there hands. VW still not interested etc

Re: New polo rline. Heater matrix cover cracked from factory. Poor service by vw and vw assist

No nothing at all still waiting on vw customers services who say they are wasiting to here back from the dealership. The only thing I was offered was the dealership offered to “buy the car back” which will leave me massively out of pocket cos the cars on forcourrts are more expensive than new

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=thAk9YuqaJE this guy had issues with his GTI - I haven`t followed the posts but I think he was going to reject it at some point. But it might be all sorted now. The dealership or franchise must have a "spare " car coming for September, or whenever our batch...

Re: New polo rline. Heater matrix cover cracked from factory. Poor service by vw and vw assist

Also it looks like there a leak under the bonnet too. Not sure if it’s normal. Vw tech told me it was maybe water from them hosing they area down after the repair. How stupid do dealerships think people are. Anyone know if this is normal or not?

Re: New polo rline. Heater matrix cover cracked from factory. Poor service by vw and vw assist

Drove straight to the dealership where they look confused and are half passing it off as normal keeping there cards close to there chest. Awaiting the ma...

Re: New polo rline. Heater matrix cover cracked from factory. Poor service by vw and vw assist

To be fair the manger of Carlisle was apologetic but only after I went on a 10 minute rant threatening to reject the car. It leaves a sour taste and it’s not the first time I’ve had to act this way to get some decency out of them. Considering I’ve bought 2 brand new cars from them in less than 2 yea...
