The defect
On certain Amarok vehicles the bolts for the front brake callipers may not have been tightened with the specified torque.

The hazard
If bolt tension is lost, the loose brake calliper makes noises, damages the wheel and under very unfavourable circumstances the calliper can cause a wheel to lock up which could cause a loss of control and possibly an accident.
The remedy
A letter is being sent to affected owners of the vehicles. For further information, customers can contact their local Volkswagen Authorised Service Centre or contact Volkswagen Customer care on 1800 504 076
