Subject: Class action law suit naming VW
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii
In a recent news release it is disclosed that the Law Firm of Ben Dover &
C. Howit Fields has initiated a class action law suit against VW of
America.
The suit implies that VW Vans, Vanagons, Busses, Syncro, Bugs are
addictive in nature. The suit sites examples of VW Van owners sleeping
and actually living like homeless people in these vans. Those
specifically mentioned are the Westfalia, Joker and a few other
conversion models.
It has been discovered that a Mr Larry Chase has abandoned his residence
and is living from a Westfalia Van somewhere in the Rocky Mountains at
this time. Mr Chase has not been located for his comments on his strange
addictive behavior.
In a written response to the charges of VW addiction, Volkswagen of
America Attorneys files this brief statement before the 13th Judicial
Federal Court in NY City.
" Volkswagen has achieved a certain popularity among the young people in
America back in the early 60s because we had affordable vehicles with
high density seating. These vehicles remain on the road because the
owners both young and old, hold a respect for the vehicles. Any
possibility of addiction is totally ridiculous and We at VWOA will, in an
effort to disprove this claim; Offer to any VW driver of a six year old
or older VW car, van, truck or other VW product a year by year
replacement with any Asian built vehicle of the same year model and
approximate new car cost of the VW product.
The participation in this opportunity will disprove any possibility of VW
addiction and the VW vehicles we take in as trade will be crushed. This
measure should in effect squash any future claims of VW addiction."
"Those persons choosing to retain ownership of their older vans, cars,
busses will be offered a one time cash payment of an amount equal to ten
times the amount paid for last repair and or labor and parts bill from an
authorized VW repair facility."
"To qualify for the cash buy out the VW vehicle must be currently
registered, inspected and insured vehicle that will travel to the local
turn in facility under its own power."
"In the very near impossible event that someone is exhibiting addictive
behavior towards a VW product, Dihatsu motor works of China has agreed to
provide full time rehabilitative employment in one of its six automobile
plants in Beijing China".
Mr. C. Howit Fields replied briefly with this comment: "Mr. Wagon, you
can't export this addiction to China, they won't be able to control it
without incarceration of those showing the addictive symptom."
If you want to get in on this class action lawsuit dial 1-800-438-5678, a
simpler way to remember it is 1-800-get-lost
