Ah, someone told me to check the error codes! They are different than before so I think they did fix it. They might have broke it in the other area to, but I can't prove that and it's fine if they did cause it's our fault for bringing it to them in the first place. As long as I can tell they fixed what they said they would, I'm all good! Lol. Thank you!!

I drive a different car now and live almost 2 hours away from my dad. My brothers use the car to go to their part time jobs. My dad is old fashioned and keeps bringing it to the dealership I bought it from. I've told him not to!! Lol

Thank you for the code stuff! We have documents showing the codes are different so that really gives me peace of mind that they did actually fix what they said they did. I will just take it to a VW mechanic. This is exactly the answer I was looking for! Thank you dude!!

Ah, okay! Yeah, they've told me before that there's nothing wrong and that the check engine light just comes on randomly sometimes. That's part of what makes it so difficult to believe that it actually needs $3k in repairs!

You're right. I just don't think most people have their cars break 10mi after leaving the repair shop. Also, logically, if the car needed $3k more worth of repairs to begin with, wouldn't it have made more sense the first time it was brought in? Why would the dealership forgo that potential cash If that was initially the case? Also, they have told my dad several times they don't know how to deal with Volkswagens.

I've told him to go elsewhere but he's old fashioned and I bought it from that dealer.

Also, I live in Dallas and my brothers use my car to go to their part time jobs in fort worth. I don't see the purpose in driving an hour and a half to get a car serviced that I don't use anymore.

My dad has been bringing it there because it was bought there. I drive a different car now. Based on the state of my car now according to them, it's in worse condition then when it was brought in the day before. Are they allowed to break my car for free? The initial repair was $660 and now it's $3000 after 10 miles? Does that make any sense?

Yeah! That's why I though! I wish my dad didn't take it to them in the first place! They've apologized in the past for nearly breaking other parts on the car when doing a simple oil change.

Okay, well thanks for being honest!

No, I just don't have any evidence that they fixed anything and neither do they? I figured if I asked nicely and explained that they've already made tons of money off me, they might cancel the charge and let me take the car to someone who can actually fix it.

They've apologized several times in the past about the oil changes and not having anyone in the shop who works on Volkswagens. They also told me they nearly broke a plate on the bottom of the car that they have to remove to drain the oil because they had a new person working on it.

They told us that there was a leak and that it needed fixing. All we know is that the check engine light was on when we took it in and that it's on again after 10 miles.

There's no way for us to know that they actually did anything other than turn the light off temporarily.
