Are you a current or recent car shopper who bought an EV and then installed solar – or who had solar already, making the decision to go electric easier?
OR
Are you a recent EV buyer (past 3 months) as a result of manufacturer incentives and dealer discounts on these vehicles, including year-end deals? Were you convinced to buy an EV after finding a good end-of-year deal, or due to uncertainty around which EVs will no longer qualify for full/partial EV tax credits in 2024?

VW MSDs in FL?

edited May 2019 in Volkswagen

Good morning,

Coming to the end of negotiations with a handful of dealers to go 39/10 on a 2019 Tiguan SE. Pretty sure I’ve gotten them all as low as I can without MSDs. I’ve asked each one to factor those in now, and they’ve never heard of them, like almost every sales assc. A couple have checked with their finance manager with no luck, and one came back saying anyone posting online about using MSDs with VWs are lying. Not really too confident the finance managers are eager to really find out the correct info.

I’ve found a handful of posts on here and Leasehackr saying that individuals were able to use them. I just got off the phone with VW Credit but they’re only able to service current accounts.

Anyone out there have any advice or can talk about their experience using them with VW? Is it possible VW doesn’t allow them in Florida?

Thanks for any help,

    Found out that VW Credit most likely doesn’t do MSDs, but those that want a VW lease with MSDs have to go through Chase or another bank. The couple dealers that have gotten back to me say the southeast region can only lease through VW Credit. Can anyone confirm the accuracy of that or are they just being lazy?

    Thanks again!

    We don't have any knowledge on the availability of MSDs for VW; we always assumed they existed, as we know they do for Audi (corporate cousin).

    I can't imagine it's a regional issue, however - VW Credit operates nationwide.

    We've seen similar issues with Toyota - MSDs are available, but they are so rarely used that most dealers aren't familiar with them.
