TIRES:PRESSURE MONITORING AND REGULATING SYSTEMS

Manufacturer
Volkswagen Group of America, Inc.
What Happened
Volkswagen Group of America, Inc. (Volkswagen) is recalling certain 2019 Volkswagen Tiguan LWB, Golf Sportswagen A7, Golf Alltrack, Golf R GP, Audi Q3, Audi A3 Cabriolet, 2019-2020 Jetta NF, Jetta GLI, Golf GTI, Atlas, Golf A7, Audi A3, 2020-2021 Atlas Cross Sport, and 2021 Atlas FL vehicles. The tire pressure monitoring system may not detect an air pressure loss in adequate time when deflating occurs among all four tires simultaneously. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 138, "Tire Pressure Monitoring Systems."
Risk if Unfixed
An undetected sudden loss of pressure in all four tires increases the risk of a crash.
Free Fix
Dealers will update the TPMS software, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed November 18, 2022.
