VW is extending its New Vehicle Limited Warranty and its Certified Pre-Owned Limited Warranty by an additional three months on all vehicles for which coverage would have ended between March 1 and May 31, 2020. Audi’s plan is identical. For example, if your warranty expired on April 20, it will automatically be extended until July 20; vehicle owners don’t need to take any action to be eligible for the extension.

The offer applies to owners of new and certified pre-owned Volkswagen and Audi vehicles, but if the vehicle’s warranty expires due to mileage rather than time, no extension will be provided.
