NHTSA campaign 19V615000 · 679,027 vehicles affected

Defect

Volkswagen Group of America, Inc. (Volkswagen) is recalling certain 2015-2019 GTI, 2015-2016 and 2018-2019 Golf, 2012-2019 Beetle and Beetle Convertible, 2017-2019 Golf SportWagen and 2011-2018 Jetta vehicles equipped with an automatic transmission, manual handbrake and keyless entry. A build-up of silicate on the shift lever micro switch contacts may enable the key to be removed from the ignition when the transmission shift lever is not in Park.

Consequence

Removing the key while the shift lever is in a position other than Park increases the risk of an unintended vehicle rollaway that may result in personal injury or a crash.

Corrective Action

Recall Service & Dealership Highlights

Protect Against Recall Risks

NHTSA reports three recalls affecting the 2019 Volkswagen Golf SportWagen across Key Removal, Suspension, and Other components. A shift lever micro switch may allow the key to come out before the transmission is in Park, creating an unintended rollaway risk. Separately, rear coil springs may prematurely fracture and damage a rear tire, which could reduce vehicle control and raise crash risk. These problems may not be obvious during a normal drive, so waiting for a symptom is not a safe strategy. A prompt VIN check identifies whether a remedy remains open and helps you address the concern before it becomes more serious.
