What This Recall Means

Component

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE

What Happened
The suction jet pump in your car helps regulate the fuel system. In some 2015-2020 models of Audi and VW vehicles, the seal inside this pump can wear out, allowing fuel to leak into the air and potentially escape through the charcoal canister.
Risk if Unfixed
If fuel leaks out and reaches an ignition source, there's a high risk of a fire breaking out in your vehicle.

How to Get This Fixed

Free Fix
Your local dealer will replace the faulty suction pump with a new one at no cost to you. This will help prevent a potential fire hazard and keep you safe on the road.
