What This Recall Means

Component

EXTERIOR LIGHTING:TAIL LIGHTS

What Happened
Your vehicle's taillight assemblies may have back-up lights that aren't bright enough, which can make it hard for other drivers to see when you're reversing.
Risk if Unfixed
If the back-up lights are too dim, you might not see what's behind you, or other drivers might not see you, which could lead to a crash.

How to Get This Fixed

Free Fix
Volkswagen will fix this for free by replacing the inner taillight assemblies at a dealership of your choice.

Affected Vehicles
