Your Volkswagen Warranty Claim can be denied – Read below about why your Volkswagen Warranty Claim may be denied.
Can your Volkswagen Warranty Claim be denied?
Yes, your Volkswagen Warranty can deny you for a handful of reasons. Your Volkswagen warranty will cover you most of the time. However, if you filed a claim that had anything to do with negligence, lack of maintenance or improper repairs you can be denied coverage.
What are some common reasons a Volkswagen Warranty Claim is denied?
1.) The Broken “Part” Is Not Covered! One of the most common reasons Volkswagen warranty claims are denied is that whatever part that is broken is not covered. Every Volkswagen warranty comes with a list of what is, and is not covered, so it’s important that you understand what’s going on before filing a claim. Make sure to read and understand your contract entirely before requesting to file a claim.
2.) If the responsibility for the repair is covered by an insurance policy, manufacturer and/or dealer customer assistance program, or any warranty from the manufacturer, such as extended drivetrain, major component or full Coverage warranties your claim can be denied.
3.) Your vehicle was totaled by your insurance company or if it was stolen and not recovered.
4.) Extreme modifications tamper with major parts, if you modify your car, do not tamper with important parts. If anything goes wrong with those parts in the future, the Volkswagen Warranty isn’t liable because you chose to do it knowing they aren’t good for your car.
