I don't drive a GTI or Rabbit, but it's still a MKV.. 2008 laser blue 2.5 jetta...
As mentioned in the title, I have a clearcoat problem on the front bumper... It started 2 months after buying the car (2008 Laser Blue 2.5), clearcoat started peeling off the insert just below headlight. They fixed the problem under warranty and there obviously is a note in my file saying that the car had clearcoat problems. Now, 9.5 months later again, clearcoat is peeling off, but this time it's the bumper itself that needs to be repainted. Brought the car in, the service guy took pictures to send to VW saying that it would all be okidooki as it was already noted that there wasa problem with the clear... They called me back to come for an estimate and told me that they would get the ok from VW in more or less 2 weeks. Now, here's my beef, VW is asking me to go back to the dealership so they can take mooore pictures, this time of the whole car, front, back, left, right and top.. wtf is this s**t ? I have no problems with them taking pics of my car as it's very well maintained and kept very clean, but, at the same time I'm getting the feeling they're gonna try to screw me over, which is in fact getting on my nerves... in a big way. any advice ? either from someone with a similar experience or just anyone ?
Btw, I do not tailgate anyone, especially big rigs, to avoid getting hit with rocks'n's**t, like I said, I love my car and baby it.
Thanks for the info(s)
