The nearly 500,000 recalled Volkswagen and Audi vehicles are safe to drive, but many owners feel scammed. The U.S. Public Interest Research Group has a campaign, “Make VW Pay,” that aims to get Vee Dub to essentially buy back all those cars, since owners would likely not have bought them if they knew the truth. “VW once was a company that brought us iconic cars like the Beetle and the flower-powered microbus, but now VW is just a big cheater,” Ed Mierzwinski, consumer program director of U.S. PIRG.
