Where to Get Guaranteed Service
Aside from the exceptions under “Emergency Repairs”, all repairs covered by the limited warranty must be done by a Volkswagen dealer or at a licensed Volkswagen Canada service centre.
Emergency Repairs
In the event of an emergency when it is impossible or unreasonable to drive or tow the vehicle to the nearest licensed Volkswagen dealer, Volkswagen will pay a reasonable amount of all covered repairs that are performed by a service centre other than a licensed Volkswagen dealer. For any emergency repairs performed by a service centre other than Volkswagen, you must keep all receipts, repair orders and replaced parts. A written declaration of the circumstances that prevented you from taking your vehicle to a licensed Volkswagen dealer should be attached to the receipts and repair orders provided by the service provider, and submitted to Volkswagen to support your reimbursement claim.
