5 common questions answered
NHTSA’s steering recall describes a condition in which silicate buildup may allow the key to come out when the shift lever is not in Park, creating an unintended rollaway risk that could lead to injury or a crash. The brake caliper recall involves pistons with potentially insufficient coating, which may reduce braking performance and increase crash risk. Volkswagen advises owners not to drive vehicles affected by the brake concern until the system has been checked. Waiting can leave a known safety issue unresolved. A prompt VIN check helps determine whether either recall remains open and whether the free manufacturer remedy should be completed.
