What This Recall Means

Component

EQUIPMENT:OTHER:OWNERS/SERVICE/OTHER MANUAL

What Happened
Your vehicle's owner's manual is missing important instructions on how to use the tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS) - the system that warns you if your tires are under-inflated.
Risk if Unfixed
If you don't know how to use the TPMS, you might not notice if your tires are under-inflated, which can cause a blowout or loss of control while driving, leading to a serious accident.

How to Get This Fixed

Free Fix
You will receive a free owner's manual insert with the correct TPMS instructions. This will be mailed to you, and you can also contact Volkswagen at 1-800-893-5298 to ask about the status of your recall.
