granted.Motive yes, but it is up to you as an individual to live by it and the rules of the law to draw the borders. What I take offense with, is the disguise of a noble and sincere cause and a honest discussion as taking the stand for the underpriviledged and those who live in less "self-enrichment" .

Plus this thought may be short lived as it would increase the cost of operating and buying a product, because the economical chain from the hourly wage of your repairman on would increase. The claim VW would be "BULLYING" and engage in some sort of negative PR is just wrong if it is construed to gain personally, i.e. by "sueing VWoA etc.
