What This Recall Means

Component

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM: INSTRUMENT CLUSTER/PANEL

What Happened
Your vehicle's instrument cluster might not make a sound to let you know if you left the key in the ignition when you get out of the car. This is a problem because your car is supposed to make this noise for safety.
Risk if Unfixed
If you don't hear the sound, it might be easier for someone to steal your car or, worse, you could leave the car running and walk away, which can lead to a crash.

How to Get This Fixed

Free Fix
Don't worry, this fix is free! Volkswagen will update your instrument cluster at a dealership, so you'll get the safety sound back, and you won't have to pay a thing.
