Reported risk: Issue:
On certain vehicles, water could leak into the door handle(s). If this happens, the door(s) could open unexpectedly while driving at speeds below 15 km/h.
Note: This problem could cause a clicking noise that sounds like a door being locked or unlocked.
Safety Risk:
A door that opens while driving could create a risk of injury.
Corrective Actions:
Volkswagen will notify owners by mail and advise you to take your vehicle to a dealership to inspect the door handles, and replace them if necessary. The dealer will also update the vehicle software.
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.
