5 common questions answered
NHTSA recall information identifies three concerns affecting the 2015 Volkswagen e-Golf. A regulatory-compliance issue may increase the risk of a crash, fire, or injury. Oversensitive high-voltage battery diagnostics may falsely detect an electrical surge and shut down the electric drive motor unexpectedly, increasing crash risk. An improperly manufactured Passenger Occupant Detection System may misclassify or fail to detect a front passenger, allowing the passenger air bag to deploy improperly or not at all in a crash. Waiting can leave a known safety concern unresolved. A prompt VIN check helps determine whether the manufacturer remedy remains open.
