Reported risk: Issue:
On certain vehicles, a quick connector for the fuel line in the engine compartment may not be secure. As a result, the connector could detach and cause a fuel leak. This could cause the engine to stall while driving.
Safety Risk:
A sudden loss of engine power could increase the risk of a crash. Additionally, a fuel leak can create the risk of a fire.
Corrective Action:
Volkswagen will notify owners by mail and instruct you to take your vehicle to a dealer to inspect the fuel line connection. If required, the fuel line and connector will be replaced.
Verify each fact at the issuing agency before acting. Recall scope, affected lots, and remediation instructions may be updated by the agency after our last sync.
