Anyways, why the hell should I have to depend on VS to service it?
n.b. there is an excellent thread with photos floating around on SOL on how to service your own VS by Rich Smith. I have not attempted it yet as I'd probably screw it up.

Maybe you're too nice to your reel. They don't like that.
Seriously though, the idea is to put when to send the reel back in your hands.
If something's wrong send it back; if not, fish it.
As for servicing your own reel, just don't put it back together wrong. There's zero warranty love if you do that.
