COINCIDENCE, OR INCIDENCE? WAS: Re: VW Service strikes again!

> I spent two hours there to get an oil change!  So I grab the phone to call VW Customer Relations and tell them that they have a bunch of incompetent schmucks working at Land VW in Durham and guess what?  They're closed!  The message said due to a water main break they are closed and to please try back tomorrow!  I love my car, but I'm starting to get fed-up with the service I've been getting.

Check out the following news article...

It's basically about the fact that a water main broke, and that Daimler/Benz/Chrysler was closed because of the water main break.

Does this mean that VW and Chrysler use the same "customer service answering system"? Does it mean that VW & Chrysler are doing something together? Does it mean that they share an office building? Or an office complex? Or is this completely unrelated, and just a weird coincidence?

Tough luck about the morons in the service department, but you can't go blaming VW if their whole office is flooded. I mean how do you plan for that? Build an ark?
