Whatever your take is about the topic is up to you. But I tend to agree that the whole ordeal about the VW thing reeks of conspiracy. It's just too convenient to bring this up just now. But still, it's their business NOT to do business, so let them be.
They can enforce a Hyundai-esque warranty perhaps.

Fuel up with a special VW additive every 1 week or 500kms or your warranty would be void.
