After owning the car for almost 4 months and less than 2,000 miles of driving. Turns out car is out warranty and I'm facing an almost $5,000 repair bill. Verified that all parts would have been covered by Audi factory warranty but too bad I missed the warranty by almost 2 months.
The only main reason I chose to purchased my Audi S7 from the VW Dealership(same owner and identical parts) was because they told me the car's certified pre-own warranty is transferrable and the car's warranty would not expire until Oct. 2018. Did not order a pre-purchase inspection because car fax says the car has been serviced before they offer the car for sale. certified pre-own warranty is not transferrable and car's warranty expires Dec. 2017, 2 months after I purchased the car and not the promised Oct. 2018. Cannot find this on paper anymore.
I have tried my best to be civil and work with the VW dealership for more than a month but they are not willing to offer any kind of help financially. VW of America would not take action as well and can't offer any help. The VW dealership manager told the VW of America representative the same Oct. 2018 expiration date through a phone conversation and the VW representative. Audi of America is willing to help but for a very low fraction of the cost. What can I do? I surely don't want VW dealership to just ignore me and get away with this after selling me a not so cheap car which actually needs major repairs done.
