I break it in for 3 years. I’m usually shuttling the kids around anyways. I hear people complaining about the Tiguan being underpowered, but I think it’s just fine. I guess it might be different when the kids are older and I hit my midlife crisis. I’m looking forward to an Audi A4 or something for my midlife crisis.
Same…when I was in my late teens, early 20s, I’d do neutral drops all over the place. Now that I’m 40, I’ve kinda lost that urge.

I’d personally expect much more than free oil changes. I’d push for a full set of new tires, since they felt the urge to wear yours down.

FYI there is a large percentage of people in the hot rod community who will tell you that the harder you floor it the better during the break in process. This actually creates a better deal with the piston rings, leaves the engine cleaner, and makes more power. More than just corvettes are dyno tested before being delivered. I wouldn’t worry about it in the slightest.
It’s unclear whether a break-in period is necessary at all…so to categorize driving your leased car hard in the early-going as “morally wrong” in any way, shape or form…
Yikes, friend. Enjoy your car - live life.
