A detective called VW and asked the rep to locate the car with Car-Net. But VW says ID.4 EV models’ Car-Net subscriptions only include Automatic Crash Notifications and Emergency Assistance. I’ve contacted VW to ask why the ID.4’s Car-Net offerings are more limited, and will update if and when they respond. Activating the free Car-NetI already own a 2023 VW ID.4 so I have to wait til June to activate the free Car-Net Safe & Secure subscription, as per VW’s announcement:The coverage begins as soon as the owner creates a myVW account and accepts the myVW and Car-Net Terms of Service.
