customer by an authorized United States Volkswagen dealer will be free from defects in material and
workmanship under normal use and service for 24 months after the date of delivery of the vehicle to the
original retail customer or until the vehicle has been driven 24,000 miles, whichever comes first. This
warranty is limited, however, to the following: If any pan of the vehicle becomes defective during this
period under normal use and service and the vehicle is brought to the workshop of any authorized
