What This Recall Means

Component

SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC:FOUNDATION COMPONENTS:HOSES, LINES/PIPING, AND FITTINGS

What Happened
There's a potential issue with the brake system in your 2022 Tiguan. The nut that holds the brake pipe near the right-front wheel well might not be secure.
Risk if Unfixed
If the brake pipe nut is loose, brake fluid can leak out, making it take longer to stop your vehicle, which increases the risk of a crash.

How to Get This Fixed

Free Fix
A Volkswagen dealer will inspect and tighten the brake pipe nut if necessary, and this service is completely free of charge. You should schedule an appointment as soon as possible.
