What Happened
The ignition switch in your Routan is a crucial part that turns your engine on and off. In some 2009 and 2010 models, this switch can move unexpectedly, turning off the engine and safety systems while driving.
Risk if Unfixed
If the ignition switch turns off unexpectedly, your engine will die, and you'll lose power steering and power brakes. This can make it harder to control your vehicle and increase the risk of a crash or injury.
Free Fix
Your Volkswagen dealer will replace the faulty ignition switch and key fob with new ones, all free of charge. You should schedule the repair as soon as you get the recall notice.
