The hazard

An incorrect weld may cause noises from the front seats. However, it cannot be completely ruled out that if this fault remains undetected and the vehicle is involved in an accident the backrest may fail and lead to injury.

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.
