What This Recall Means

Component

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM:IGNITION:SWITCH

What Happened
Volkswagen is recalling some 2010 Routan vehicles to fix a problem with the ignition switch. The switch might move from the 'run' to the 'accessory' position while you're driving, causing the engine to shut off.
Risk if Unfixed
If your engine shuts off suddenly while you're driving, it could lead to a crash, which could put you and others at risk.

How to Get This Fixed

Free Fix
You'll need to take your vehicle to a Volkswagen dealership, where they'll replace the ignition switch for free, starting in June 2011.
