Hi everyone,
last June we bought a second-hand Cali from 2010 and recently we've discovered that we're suffering from corrosion as well. Today I brought it to the garage for the first time and asked them to check it. The dealer was quite rude and told me that it may fall under warranty in the UK and Germany, but not in Belgium. Is there anyone here from Belgium who suffered from the same problem and did get warranty?
Also, apparantely the previous owners hadn't gone to an official VW garage for their latest checks, so according to the dealer, I don't have any warranty anyway. But, I can't help it that the previous owners didn't go to an official garage + I don't think the corrosion has anything to do with the normal check ups they regularly do in garages.
Anyway, after a lot of palaver and many put-me-downs from the dealer (I'm a woman and therefore considered to be absolutely stupid I presume), he finally agreed to take some pictures and make a file for VW. He warned that I problably would have to go to court.
Anyone having experience with that?
