Details

On certain Golf, Golf wagon, Jetta and Rabbit equipped with a 2.5L Engine, a small plastic tab located on the windshield washer fluid reservoir may chafe against an underhood fuel supply line.

If chafing occurs fuel leakage could develop which, in the presence of an ignition source, could result in a fire causing property damage and/or personal injury.

Correction: Dealers will inspect the affected vehicles and, if necessary, replace the fuel line.

In addition, as a preventive measure, the plastic tab from the windshield washer fluid reservoir will be removed.
